Simply bet £10.00+ on Delhi Capitals v Rajasthan Royals and Betfred will give us a £5.00 free bet to use on Royal Challengers Bangalore v Kings XI Punjab.

We can calculate our lay stakes using my matched betting calculator…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £9.73…
Place £10.00 on Rajasthan Royals @ 2.20 = Potential profit of £12.00
Lay £9.73 on Rajasthan Royals @ 2.28 = Potential liability of £12.45
Outcomes:
Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…
| Outcome | Bookie | Exchange | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rajasthan Royals win | +£12.00 | -£12.45 | £0.45 loss |
| Rajasthan Royals don’t win | -£10.00 | +£9.53 | £0.47 loss |
So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.47 in qualifying for our free bet.
Free Bet:
Our £5.00 free bet will be credited by 14:00 on Thursday 15th October 2020 and will be valid until 09:00 on Friday 16th October 2020. Although the promotion page suggests using the free bet on Royal Challengers Bangalore v Kings XI Punjab, Betfred free bets can usually be used on any sports market.
Using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to convert our free bet into 80% cash, so £4.00. If we take into account our maximum qualifying loss of £0.47, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.53 on this Betfred offer!
* Delhi Capitals won by 13 runs, resulting in a profit of £3.53 on this Betfred offer. *
