Probably it is manual because they need to take bets and decide what to pay out on. If they get it wrong, they lost a lot of money and/or credibility. To be totally sure, DYOR.

There is no way they can trust scraped data. Especially when you can have different matches with slightly different names. For example U21 version of A vs B for a givens sport (learned that the hard way when arbing!).
