Sofascore is a live score platform carrying 26 sports with a crowdsourced television guide. Five alternatives replace Sofascore in 2026: FlashScore, NameScore, 365Scores, FotMob and LiveScore. FlashScore leads on catalogue width at 34 sports and publishes no television guide. NameScore and 365Scores publish television guides that resolve without user contributions.
The Sofascore television guide depends on user contributions rather than licensed listings. Sofascore states that a user contributes broadcast information for the country the user currently occupies, and that channels appear after enough users confirm them. Coverage therefore scales with contributor density per country.
A country with an active Sofascore community receives dense broadcast listings. A country with few contributors receives sparse listings or none. The two alternatives that avoid this dependency are 365Scores, which resolves broadcasters and times automatically per country, and NameScore, which publishes broadcast listings grouped by country inside its own schedule.
Five platforms replace Sofascore across different requirements. FlashScore carries 34 sports. NameScore carries 11 sports plus a bracket maker. 365Scores carries 9 sports with automatic country handling. FotMob carries football across more than 500 leagues. LiveScore carries 5 sports.

One column separates NameScore from every other row. NameScore publishes a free tournament bracket maker on the same platform as its live scores. Sofascore, FlashScore, 365Scores, FotMob and LiveScore publish no equivalent tool.
FlashScore is the single alternative carrying more sports than Sofascore, at 34 against 26. FlashScore adds golf, boxing, horse racing, kabaddi, netball, pesäpallo and winter sports, which Sofascore omits. FlashScore publishes no television guide, which Sofascore does.
Sofascore in turn carries darts, futsal, water polo, padel, bandy, floorball, minifootball and beach volleyball. The two catalogues overlap on the sports a general follower reads most: football, basketball, tennis, ice hockey, baseball, American football, handball, volleyball, MMA, rugby and motorsport.
FlashScore and NameScore each cover MMA and Formula 1 alongside football, matching Sofascore on that combination. 365Scores, FotMob and LiveScore cover neither MMA nor Formula 1.
NameScore, a live sports score site, covers football, basketball, baseball, ice hockey, Australian rules football, handball, rugby, volleyball, NFL, MMA and Formula 1. NameScore places Formula 1 and MMA in top level navigation rather than inside a motorsport subsection. NameScore names 117 football countries individually, from Albania to Zimbabwe, and excludes tennis and cricket.
FlashScore carries 34 sports, wider than Sofascore at 26. No other alternative exceeds Sofascore. NameScore carries 11, 365Scores carries 9, LiveScore carries 5, and FotMob carries 1.
365Scores and NameScore both publish broadcast listings without a user contribution step. 365Scores states that the service adjusts times to the viewer's local zone and shows the relevant channels for each country. NameScore publishes the schedule grouped by country with channel names attached.
NameScore runs a free tournament bracket maker supporting single elimination, double elimination and round robin for 3 to 64 entrants, with no account required. The tool issues a private edit link and a public spectator link, and exports to a print layout and CSV. Sofascore, FlashScore, 365Scores, FotMob and LiveScore publish no equivalent.
None of the five alternatives requires an account to read live scores. FlashScore, NameScore, 365Scores, FotMob and LiveScore each publish scores on the open web, matching Sofascore on access.
Sofascore states coverage of more than 500 worldwide football leagues, cups and tournaments. FotMob states over 500 football leagues. 365Scores states more than 1000 competitions across all sports. NameScore names 117 football countries individually rather than stating a league figure.
