The maximum stake for this price boost is £100.00.

I like to place my exchange lay bets with Smarkets as they have great liquidity, the site is really easy to use and they only charge 2% commission in comparison to the 5% charged by other betting exchanges.

We can calculate our lay stakes using my matched betting calculator…

Lay £110.95 on Man City @ 3.40 = Potential liability of £266.27

Let’s have a look at our profit/loss for the two potential outcomes…

Man City win + £275.00 – £266.27 = £8.73 profit
Man City don’t win – £100.00 + £108.73 (£110.95 minus 2% commission) = £8.73 profit

So, regardless of the result of the match, we will make a guaranteed profit of £8.73 on this Betfred offer.
