FanDuel’s live odds are available to Xfinity X1 customers for all the most-watched leagues, from the NFL, NHL, NBA and MLB, to the WNBA, the PGA TOUR and NCAA football. Customers will also get live odds on all the action during NCAA men’s and women’s basketball.
For those using X1's voice remote, they can just say “Odds Zone,” “View odds” or “FanDuel odds” to open live odds for the game they’re watching.
Customers need to scan a QR code that appears on screen to add their chosen wager to their FanDuel bet slip. They can then place their bet via any mobile device.
New sports betting hub launches soon
A brand new sports betting hub for X1 customers is just around the corner, too. The new hub promises a centralized destination for fans, bettors and fantasy players.
Bringing together curated content including the latest game analysis and more specialized, betting-focused updates, the hub will give fans easy access to content from all the top streaming channels and networks.
Comcast promises "ultimate sports viewing experience"
Vito Forlenza, Vice President of Sports Entertainment at Comcast said: “X1 is the best seat in the house for live sports, and now with FanDuel as part of Odds Zone, we’re making it even better for fans by integrating odds from another top sportsbook directly into their viewing experience.”
Forlenza added, “Our entertainment platform makes it easy for customers to find their favorite sports by bringing everything together in one place - whether airing nationally or locally, on broadcast or streaming. And when combined with features like Odds Zone, Enhanced 4K and Multiview, we’re giving our customers the ultimate sports viewing experience.”
Karol Corcoran, FanDuel's Senior Vice President and General Manager said: “We are thrilled to partner with Comcast to enhance how our customers can watch and wager on their favorite teams and athletes. Integrating FanDuel odds into the Xfinity Odds Zone offers sports fans another way to interact with our robust sports betting offering, and we look forward to collaborating with Comcast to continue elevating the game day viewing experience.”
Customers must live in a state with legal sports betting
All X1 customers now have access to live odds via Xfinity Odds Zone. But they can only place bets if they live in states that have legalized sports betting. Customers also have to check that their chosen sportsbook is legal in their state before placing a bet. 38 states and Washington, D.C. have now approved legal sports betting.
