Christmas has come early with news of this William Hill in play offer for December. Simply place a single bet of £20.00 or more pre-match on any matches involving Premier League teams being shown live on Sky Sports or BT Sports and William Hill will give us a £10.00 free bet to be used in-play on that match. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £25.20 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.
This weekend’s eligible matches are as follows…
Match | Kick-Off | Date |
---|---|---|
Stoke City v Manchester City | 12:45 | Saturday 5th December 2015 |
Chelsea v Bournemouth | 17:30 | Saturday 5th December 2015 |
Newcastle United v Liverpool | 16:00 | Sunday 6th December 2015 |
Everton v Crystal Palace | 20:00 | Monday 7th December 2015 |
It’s entirely up to you what you place your qualifying bets on, as long as you place them 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.
So we will lose approximately £4.80 in qualifying for our 4 x £10.00 in-play free bets.
Free Bet:
Our free bets will be credited by half-time of each match and must be used by full-time. It’s impossible to know what odds will be available until the matches are in progress but by using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract 75% out of the 4 x £10.00 free bets as cash, so £30.00. If we take into account our qualifying loss of £4.80, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £25.20!
Extracting profit from our free bets can be a little tricky when betting in-play. My advice is to get them on at half-time. This is simply because the odds don’t fluctuate as much as when the game is live. There’s nothing worse than placing a free bet on a market and then something happens in the game that changes the odds before you have chance to get your lay bet on! I tend to look at the correct score markets first and then if I can’t find anything suitable I move onto goal scorer markets.
If you’re not sure how to extract 75% of the 4 x £10.00 free in-play bets, please see my Free Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.
