Betsafe Offer – Man City v Leicester City

Betsafe have gone all in on Manchester City this season and their in play offer continues tonight! Simply place a £25.00 pre-match bet on any Premier League match and Betsafe will give us a £10.00 free bet to be used in play on Man City v Leicester City. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £46.50 and here’s how…

Qualifying Bet:

If you’re unfamiliar with qualifying bets, please see my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how they should be done.

We must opt-in on the promotions page to be eligible for this offer. It’s entirely up to you what you place your qualifying bet on, as long as you place it at the minimum odds of 1.50 (1/2) or above.

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 the matched betting calculator.

Aim to lose no more than £1.00 on your qualifying bet

Free Bet:

It’s been noted over previous weeks of doing this offer, that there is a distinct lack of available markets in play that enable us to lock in a guaranteed profit. I’ve therefore resorted to using this free bet as a punt.

When we place our free in play bet, we must check the “(FB amount) Free Bet” box on our betslip.

If I were to place my £10.00 free in play bet on a winning selection at odds of 6.00, I would have winnings of £50.00 that would need rolling over once (at odds of 1.50 or above) before I’m able to withdraw. Using straightforward matched betting, I should be able to extract 95% of the winnings as cash, giving me cash returns of £47.50. If we take into account our qualifying loss of £1.00, this gives us a potential profit of £46.50!

I will update the bottom of this blog post with my actual in play selection after the match.

* I actually placed my free in play bet on ‘Under 1.5 Goals’ when the score was 1-0 to Leicester City. Leicester City won the game 3-1, meaning I made a loss of £1.00 on this offer. *
