Paddy Power Offer – Arsenal & Man City

Get involved with the FA Cup action this afternoon with this price boost from Paddy Power! They’ve enhanced Arsenal and Manchester City both to win from 11/8 to a tasty 11/5. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential risk-free profit of £7.37 and here’s how…

The maximum stake for this price boost is £20.00.

We can underlay this treble on the Betfair Exchange to make this offer risk-free.

You can find the accumulator markets via the following link trail… Betfair Exchange > Football > English FA Cup > Sat 30 Jan > 12:45 Acca Saturday 30th Jan.

We just need to divide our stake of £20.00 by 0.95 to account for the 5% commission that Betfair charge on net winnings. This gives us a lay stake of £21.05…

Place £20.00 on Arsenal & Man City @ 3.20 = Potential profit of £44.00

betfair

Lay £21.05 on Arsenal & Man City @ 2.74 = Potential liability of £36.63

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

Double wins +£44.00 – £36.63 = £7.37 profit
Double doesn’t win -£20.00 + £20.00 (£21.05 minus 5% commission) = £0.00

So if our enhanced double doesn’t win, we break even and there’s no harm done, however, if it does win, we will make a nice risk-free profit of £7.37 on this Paddy Power offer.
