888sport Offer – Free Bet Saturdays

The weekend just got a whole lot more interesting thanks to this 888sport Free Bet Saturdays offer! Place three or more £10.00+ in play bets on any Saturday Premier League, Scottish Premier League, La Liga or Bundesliga match and 888sport will give us a £5.00 free bet to be used on any in play market the following day. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed weekly profit of £2.80 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 offer applies to matches scheduled on Saturdays only. We must place at least 3 x £10.00 ‘Live’ single bets at odds of 1.50 (1/2) or greater on any Premier League, La Liga, Scottish Premiership or German Bundesliga matches (in regards to Bundesliga, only top tier league matches qualify).

It’s entirely up to you what you place your qualifying bets on. I recommend placing our qualifying bets at half-time when the odds are fairly stable, as it reduces the risk of the odds fluctuating unfavourably whilst we are trying to get our lay bets on.

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.

Aim to lose no more than £0.40 on each qualifying bet.

So, we will lose a total of £1.20 in qualifying for our £5.00 free in play bet.

Free Bet:

Free bets will be applied to qualifying accounts the following day and will be valid for 72 hours. Free bet stakes are not included in any returns.

Again, we should place our free in play bet at half-time, to reduce the risk of the odds fluctuating unfavourably whilst we are trying to get our lay bets on.

By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract at least 80% of the £5.00 free bet, so approximately £4.00. If we take into consideration our total qualifying loss of £1.20, we should make a minimum guaranteed profit of £2.80 each week with this 888sport offer!
