Best Odds Pattern? Does it exist?

Woke up this morning with a thought (first this year!).  Barring news events such as a striker copping the virus, is there a pattern you could tap into to get the best Back or Lay odds for Home, Away or Draw? If you took a dozen data points (24, 12, 6, 3, 2 hours, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5 minutes) before Kick-Off, would there be a point where you are likely to get better odds for your Home, Away, Draw Back or Lay bet? Or does it purely depend on volumes for particular matches?
