Manchester United v Olympiakos – BetVictor Money-Back Special

I love the Money-Back Special offers from BetVictor because their odds are some of the most competitive around.  If 4 or more goals are scored during the Manchester United v Olympiakos match, BetVictor will refund losing Correct Score, First/Last/Anytime Goalscorer, Scorecast & Half-Time/Full-Time bets as a FREE BET up to £25.00.  Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £18.31! And here’s how…

Whenever I do these Money-Back Special offers, I always stick to the correct score market. I find the liquidity at the betting exchange is far better than goalscorer markets and I just feel more comfortable here.

We need to select a correct score and hope it doesn’t come in, as only losing bets are refunded in the event of 4 or more goals being scored. Having looked at the odds on offer, I’ve opted for a 2-0 Manchester United win.

 

Step 1:

betvictor

Place £25.00 on 2-0 Man Utd @ 8.00 = Potential profit of £175.00

betfair

Lay £24.54 on 2-0 Man Utd @ 8.20 = Potential liability of £176.69

Step 2:

 

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

 

2-0 Man Utd

+£175.00 – £176.69 = £1.69 loss

Not 2-0 Man Utd with 4 or more goals

-£25.00 + £23.31 + £20.00 (Assumes an 80% return from our £25.00 free bet) = £18.31 profit

Not 2-0 Man Utd with 3 or less goals

-£25.00 + £23.31 = £1.69 loss

 

So we will win £18.31 if the game doesn’t finish 2-0 to Manchester United and 4 or more goals are scored!  If 3 or less goals are scored, we will make a loss of £1.69, which I’m sure you’ll agree is a risk worth taking as the odds of more than 3 goals being scored are around 3.00.
