I keep reading how sharp Pinnacle is, but how sharp is it compared to Betfair?

I'll probably take a look in the next week or two but just wondering if anyone has looked at kick-off time price efficiency between the two and has an opinion?

Last time I looked they were consistently worse value than Betfair. They priced at 103-105%

Been a while since I looked but I always thought they were better than 103-105%, plus no comms etc and large bets so depends what you're trying to do.

For the OP save yourself a bit of time and look at the data on https://www.football-data.co.uk/englandm.php they have all leaques and the results spreadsheets contain the Pinnacle odds so should be able to set something up to run through them and get an idea of the book percentages they play to.

Both are competitive, but Betfair charges a commission on winnings, which can affect returns slightly head soccer To compare, checking odds across both platforms near kick-off over several matches would give the clearest picture.
