It’s Atletico Madrid v Arsenal in the Europa League tonight and you don’t want to miss this Sun Bets ‘Bet £10, Get £5’ offer! Place a single bet of at least £10.00 on any pre-match market for Atletico Madrid v Arsenal and Sun Bets will give us a £5.00 free bet to be used in play on the same match. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.16 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 it should be done.
Qualifying bets must be placed at odds of 1.50 (1/2) or greater, to be eligible.
Having looked at the odds available, we could place our qualifying bet on Yes in the Both Teams To Score market.
I like to place my exchange lay bets with Betfair as they have great liquidity and the site is really easy to use.
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 £9.91…
Place £10.00 on ‘Both Teams To Score – Yes’ @ 1.952 = Potential profit of £9.52
Lay £9.91 on ‘Both teams to Score? – Yes’ @ 2.02 = Potential liability of £10.10
Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…
Both teams score | + £9.52 – £10.10 = £0.58 loss |
Either team keeps a clean sheet | – £10.00 + £9.41 (£9.91 minus 5% commission) = £0.59 loss |
So, regardless of the result of the match, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.59 in qualifying for our £5.00 free bet.
Free Bet:
Our £5.00 free bet will be credited before the second half starts at around 21:05 (Thursday 3rd May 2018) and may only be used in play on the second half of the game.
By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract 75% out of the £5.00 free bet as cash, so £3.75. If we take into account our maximum qualifying loss of £0.59, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.16 on this Sun Bets offer!
* Atletico Madrid won the match 1-0, resulting in a profit of £3.16 on this Sun Bets offer. *
