888 Sport Offer – Champions League Final Double Odds

How do you fancy getting double odds on any Champions League Final in play bet? Well, that’s exactly what we can get with this 888 Sport offer!  Simply place a bet in play at normal odds, and if it wins, 888 Sport will top our winnings up with double the odds.  Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.23 and here’s how…

 

 

If you’re unfamiliar with qualifying bets, please see my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walkthrough guide on how to place your qualifying bets.

It’s entirely up you what you place your qualifying bet on, but it really needs to be a selection with tight back and lay odds.  Also, the higher the odds the better.

We won’t know what odds are available until the game has kicked off, but the following example shows how a bet on Juventus at odds of 6.00 might work out.  As our winnings will be doubled, we need to work out what our effective odds are.  We need to subtract 1, as this is our stake.  This gives us 5.00 which is our potential profit.  We need to double this which gives us 10.00 and then add our stake back on which gives us 11.00.

We can calculate our lay stake by using the matched betting calculator.

Place £5.00 on Juventus @ 11.00 = Potential profit of £50.00

betfair

Lay £8.66 on Juventus @ 6.40 = Potential liability of £46.77

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

 

Juventus win +£50.00 – £46.77 = £3.23 profit
Juventus don’t win -£5.00 + £8.23 (£8.66 minus 5% commission) = £3.23 profit

 

So regardless of the result of the match, we will make a guaranteed profit of £3.23 on this 888 Sport offer!
