Betradar has extended its live betting programme with the addition of live odds for darts and rugby union, increasing Betradar’s live coverage to 13 sports.

The live production of rugby union events began on August 30 with darts to follow by the end of September. This portfolio extension was facilitated by the acquisition of SportStat, a UK-based sports data provider.
Erik Lorenz, managing director sales, Sportradar, said: “The challenge for bookmakers to further increase the number of sports to be covered live will continue to be of importance.
“The collection and updating of live sports data and the trading of live odds requires many resources and substantial financial investments.
He added: “Our turnkey live betting solutions allow bookmakers to offer their clients a diverse live betting portfolio without the need for cost intensive live trading operations.”
