Coral Offer – Atletico Madrid v Bayern Munich

Atletico Madrid host Bayern Munich in the Champions League Semi-Finals tonight and you don’t want to miss this Coral offer. Simply place a £20.00 single bet on the Match Odds (W-D-W) market for Atletico Madrid vs Bayern Munich and Coral will give us a £10.00 free bet to be used in play. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £7.18 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 it should be done.

Qualifying bets must be placed pre-match on the Match Odds (W-D-W) market at minimum odds of 1.50 (1/2) or greater to be eligible for the free bet. Having looked at the odds available, I’ve opted to place my qualifying bet on Bayern Munich.

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…

Place £20.00 on Bayern Munich @ 2.45 = Potential profit of £29.00

Lay £20.08 on Bayern Munich @ 2.46 = Potential liability of £29.32

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

Bayern Munich win + £29.00 – £29.32 = £0.32 loss
Bayern Munich don’t win – £20.00 + £19.68 = £0.32 loss

So, regardless of the result of match, we will lose £0.32 in qualifying for our £10.00 free in play bet.

Free Bet:

Our £10.00 free in play bet will be credited upon placement of our qualifying bet and must be used in play on Atletico Madrid v Bayern Munich, which kicks off at 19:45 on Wednesday 27th April 2016. The free bet will expire at 23:59 on Wednesday 27th April 2016.

By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract 75% of our £10.00 free bet as cash, so around £7.50. If we take into account our qualifying loss of £0.32, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £7.18 on this Coral offer!
