About

Upset Alert

Features

Don't watch the wrong match. Upset Alert follows the big football leagues live and taps you on the shoulder when a match turns into one worth watching: a favourite slipping, a late comeback, a game that suddenly catches fire. ONE BAR FOR EVERY MATCH Each match gets a heat bar from green to red. Before kickoff it shows how promising the game looks. Once it starts, it fills as the drama builds, so one glance tells you where to look. ALERTS WHEN IT MATTERS Every live match is measured against how it was expected to go. When a favourite wobbles or a game turns, your phone buzzes, not before. Pick how often you want to hear from us, from only the very best moments to every lively game. YOUR TEAMS, YOUR LEAGUES Follow your clubs and always hear about their matches. Choose the competitions you care about. Get a short list of the day's best matches at noon your time. EVERYTHING ABOUT THE MATCH Live score, goals with scorers and assists, cards, and the match stats: possession, shots, passing, saves and more. A drama chart shows how the game swung. Covers the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, Süper Lig, the Champions League, the Europa League and the Nations League. Browse matches without an account. Sign in with Apple or Google to get alerts and follow teams. Upset Alert is not affiliated with any league, club or federation.
