}What the J1 League feed gives you
Japan's top flight: 20 clubs and 38 matchdays.
For every match a book prices you get its whole board: match result, totals, both teams to score, Asian and European handicaps, correct score and, on the books that offer them, corners, cards and player props. Each board carries an updated_at timestamp, and the pre-match board stays available after kickoff as the closing line.
On the matches above, average match-result margins were Pinnacle 4.3%, BetMGM UK 9.0% and Paddy Power 9.6%. A lower margin means prices closer to the fair odds; see margins across every league.
Common builds on J1 Leagueodds: odds comparison tables like the one above, value and arbitrage scanners, closing-line tracking for a model, and match previews that show the market's view.

Bet365, Pinnacle, Betfair Exchange, Paddy Power and BetMGM UK price the J1 League, all in the same JSON schema. Each book is its own endpoint: swap the bookmaker slug in the URL.
Each bookmaker has its own id, because books name and group leagues differently. Bet365: lg_86402, Pinnacle: lg_20630, Betfair Exchange: lg_48922, Paddy Power: lg_48999, BetMGM UK: lg_67220. You can also find it with GET /v1/{bookmaker}/leagues?search=j1%20league.
List the league's matches with GET /v1/bet365/events?league_id=lg_86402, then call GET /v1/bet365/events/{event_id}/odds for each match. Add ?markets=match_result,total_goals to keep the response small, or leave it out for every market the book prices.
Yes. While a match is in play, GET /v1/{bookmaker}/events/{event_id}/odds/live returns the in-play board. The pre-match board stays available after kickoff, so you can keep the closing line.
