Bettors using Italy’s leading sportsbook, Lottomatica (through its brands Goldbet and Better) will be the first in the world to access Stats Perform’s new live streaming features for tennis, Instant Highlights and Smart Stats Overlays™.

Stats Perform announced earlier this year that tennis is the latest sport with their award-winning new video features for bettors, following football.

Goldbet and Better also become the first operator in Italy to offer Stats Perform’s new Smart Stats Overlays™ feature for live video of football matches, alongside the popular Instant Highlights functionality for the sport.

Stats Perform’s award-winning Instant Highlights enables bettors to re-watch key match events like goals, shots on target, red cards and more while a match is in play, so bettors never miss a moment from Stats Perform’s live streaming competitions like LaLiga, Ligue 1, Brazil Serie A, plus WTA and Australian Open tennis and more.

Smart Stats Overlays™ provides Goldbet and Better bettors with real-time Opta betting stats on-screen, including expected goals, live win probability, player and team shots, fouls, corners and more, displayed seamlessly over the top of Stats Perform’s football and tennis live streams.

Both Instant Highlights and Smart Stats Overlays™ are available through Stats Perform’s plug-and-play Content Player Pro, or an easy-to-use API for custom product development.

Paolo Manzo, Sportsbook Director Betting & Digital Italy Lottomatica, said: “The next generation of live streaming has arrived on the goldbet.it and better.it sportsbook. We focus relentlessly on enhancing the customer experience and Instant Highlights and Smart Stats Overlays™ from Stats Perform are powerful tools helping us make every live sports stream more entertaining and more valuable for our customers.

“We’re proud to be the first sportsbook in the world to offer highlights and overlays for tennis live streams – a really important sport for our customers.”

Andrew Ashenden, Stats Perform’s Chief Betting Officer, said “The growth in bettor entertainment and user retention from Instant Highlights and Smart Stats Overlays™ is what the sports betting industry has long needed from the live streaming experience. We are proud to share a joint vision with Lottomatica on the role these features have on making sports betting more entertaining.

Director of Betting, Southern Europe at Stats Perform, Vincenzo Zeppillo, said, “We’re delighted to help Lottomatica be the first to bring such a high level of sports entertainment to their tennis customers and confident Instant Highlights and Smart Stats Overlays™ will be a huge success, as they are for football.”

Stats Perform’s action-packed Bet LiveStreams portfolio includes Spain’s LaLiga, Italy’s Serie A, France’s Ligue 1 and over 60 other football competitions. Tennis live streaming coverage includes the WTA, Wimbledon and the Australian Open. Bet LiveStreams also provides premium round-the-clock live streams for top-tier basketball, cricket, ice hockey, darts and more. Its innovative new Bet LiveStreams features, Instant Highlights and Smart Stats Overlays™ enable licensed sportsbooks to make live video streams even more relevant, accessible and entertaining for their bettors.
