BoyleSports Offer – Bayern Munich v Arsenal

Arsenal face Bayern Munich in the Champions League tonight and you don’t want to miss this BoyleSports offer! Simply place a pre-match bet on Bayern Munich v Arsenal, and if either side hits the crossbar, BoyleSports will double winnings on all pre-match markets as a free bet. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £8.11 and here’s how…

Qualifying Bet:

We must opt-in to this promotion to be eligible.

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

If either team hits the crossbar, BoyleSports will double winnings on all pre-match markets as a free bet. The maximum stake for this offer is £25.00 and the maximum free bet is £500.00.

Just to clarify, the ball must strike the crossbar and rebound back into play. The side posts do not count for the purposes of this offer.

Having looked at the odds available, I’ve opted to place my qualifying bet on Bayern Munich in the ‘Match Betting’ market.

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 stake using my matched betting calculator…

Place £25.00 on Bayern Munich @ 1.444 = Potential profit of £11.10

smarkets whiteLay £24.73 on Bayern Munich @ 1.48 = Potential liability of £11.87

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

Bayern Munich win and crossbar not struck + £11.10 – £11.87 = £0.77 loss
Bayern Munich win and crossbar struck + £11.10 – £11.87 + £8.88 (extract 80% from £11.10 free bet) = £8.11 profit
Bayern Munich don’t win – £25.00 + £24.23 = £0.77 loss

So, if Bayern Munich win and the crossbar is struck, we’ll make a nice profit of £8.11. If, however, Bayern Munich don’t win or the crossbar isn’t struck, we’ll have made a small loss of £0.77. Risking £0.77 to make a profit of £8.11, gives us effective odds of 11.53, which I’m sure you’ll agree, makes this a profitable offer in the long run.

If you’re not sure how to extract 80% cash from a free bet, please see my Free Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.

* The crossbar was struck, meaning I made a profit of £8.11 on this BoyleSports offer. *
