Photo finish for Oddschecker Top 10
Betfair edges out bet365 to hold on to top spot by just 28 clicks after strong golf showings from both operators.
April’s Oddschecker Top 10 saw a near dead-heat at the top of the rankings as Betfair and bet365 each recorded 18.9% of market clicks during the month.
However Betfair, which claimed the lead in February’s standings, clung on to top spot with just 28 clicks more than its Stoke-based rival.
The main factors in bet365 cutting the deficit between first and second – which had stood at 3.1% in February – were football and golf, although Betfair earned the highest share of market clicks for the one golf major in April, the US Masters.
Further down the table, Ladbrokes has continued its slide and now sits in ninth place with a market share of 4.5%, while BetVictor continues to sit comfortably in fifth after edging away from Lads in February.
One of the biggest winners in the bottom half of the table was Stan James, with a strong 8.4% showing in football helping lift the Gibraltar-licensed operator to sixth in the standings.
