LiveScore unveils industry-first four-day work week trial for London staff
- LiveScore Group has launched a four-day work week trial for London-based employees
- Model prioritises wellbeing and in-person collaboration, as LiveScore Group continues to lead industry innovation, balancing performance with people-first culture
- The trial will be reviewed by key business stakeholders in October
LiveScore Group, comprising LiveScore, LiveScore Bet, and Virgin Bet, has long been at the forefront of innovation across the sports media and sports betting industries. With over 25 years of experience and a unique convergence model that delivers a seamless ecosystem for sports fans, remaining committed to evolving in line with both user expectations and employee needs.
As part of that ongoing evolution, the global sports media brand is now taking a bold step to support the people behind its success. Starting on the 19th May 2025, LiveScore Group began a trial of a four-day work week for its London-based employees.
The move is designed to reflect the evolving nature of work, offering a better balance between professional and personal life, while continuing to nurture the energy, creativity, and collaboration that come from working together in person.
Under the new model, employees will work from the office Monday through Thursday, with Fridays becoming a non-working day for most of the team. A small number of Fridays will remain working days to support key sporting events or major business moments. These exceptions ensure that LiveScore Group continues to deliver the high-performance standards and real-time coverage its users expect while giving employees the benefit of a regular three-day weekend, most weeks.
The trial will run for 12 months, with a formal review of its impact scheduled for October 2025, informed by feedback from across the business.
At its core, LiveScore Group is about people: fans, teams, and employees alike. As LiveScore Group continues to fuel fans’ passion for sport, it’s equally focused on creating an environment where its people can thrive.
Sam Sadi, CEO of LiveScore Group said: “LiveScore Group was built on innovation. Not just in how we serve sports fans, but in how we grow and evolve as a business. As pioneers in convergence, we understand the power of creating ecosystems that work better together and that includes how we work as a team.
“This four-day work week trial is a natural step in our journey, building a future-fit business that can continue to lead, adapt, and perform at the highest level. We’re proud to be taking this step forward as we continue to grow and lead from the front”
Matthew Garratt, Chief People Officer, of LiveScore Group said: “We know that building world-class products starts with creating a world-class environment for our people. This trial reflects our belief that performance and wellbeing are not at odds, instead, they power each other. By supporting balance and in-person collaboration, we’re building a stronger, more connected team ready to drive the next chapter of our growth.

From $12 to $54,719: The Story of a Big Win at Betandyou!
There are thousands of bets placed on Betandyou every single day. Some place small bets, some go big, and sometimes someone hits a win that stands out from everything else.
That’s exactly what happened this November – one of our players placed just $12 and hit a life-changing $54,719 payout!
What Happened Before the Big Win
It all started like any ordinary bet. Football filled the screens – Manchester, Barcelona, Milan, Porto.
The player with ID 6301********, a part of our community since June 2023, opened the Betandyou app and placed his usual pick. No big stake. No drama. Just a regular moment of excitement for the game.
The Four Predictions That Changed Everything
A $12 accumulator and four football matches. Most impressively, exact score predictions – something you don’t see every day and a true sign of confidence. And here’s how the night unfolded:
- Manchester City – Bournemouth: 3–1
- Barcelona – Elche: 3–1
- Milan – Roma: 1–0
- Porto – Braga: 2–1
One by one, the results started to fall into place. The first two games, perfect 3:1 calls. Then Milan held Roma to 1:0. And finally, Porto sealed it with a 2:1 win. Four matches. Four exact scores.
4560 Odds: A Moment You Can’t Predict
- Total odds? 4560.
- The payout? That’s $54,719!
When the final whistle blew, the numbers on the screen told a story we don’t see every day, the kind of win that makes your heart skip a beat and your hands tremble just a little before hitting “Check balance.” That’s the kind of moment every bettor dreams about, when the impossible suddenly becomes reality.
CEO Betandyou: Official Comment
“Wins like this always draw attention,” says the CEO of Betandyou. “But what excites us even more is the story behind it. Our players don’t just bet, they feel the game. They analyze, they take risks, they follow their passion. This win isn’t just luck; it’s the perfect mix of intuition, strategy, and a love for football. At Betandyou, we live for moments like these, because every big win starts with a small belief.”
More Than Just Numbers
This player has been with us for more than a year, and this time their loyalty, patience, and boldness paid off in the best possible way. It’s not really about the amount – it’s about that feeling when your choices turn into something real. When your screen lights up and you realize that yes, you just did that.
At Betandyou, that magic happens every day, sometimes quietly, sometimes spectacularly. But one thing is certain: there’s always another story waiting to be written.
So who knows? Maybe the next headline will be yours.
Stay in the game with Betandyou!
