The Bet365 in play offer is back! Place a pre-match bet on Wolfsburg v Manchester United and Bet365 will give us a risk-free in play bet to the same stake (up to a maximum of £50.00) on the big match. These Bet365 in play offers are the best around as there are big profits to be made. We can make a guaranteed minimum profit of £31.97 on this offer and here’s how…
Our in play bet will be risk-free. This means that we are required to place the in play bet using our own funds and if this in play bet loses, Bet365 will refund it in full in cash (which is withdrawable straight away).
The first step when doing these offers, is to decide which outcome we should place our in play bet on. Having looked at the odds available, it’s most profitable to place our in play bet on the draw. If we’re quick, we shouldn’t have any problem getting our in play bet on at the pre-match odds. If we’re not quick, then the odds are likely to drop slightly and it’s always worth bearing that in mind when calculating our stakes…
Place £50.53 (pre-match) on Wolfsburg @ 2.375 = Returns £120.01
Place £50.00 (in-play) on a draw @ 3.40 = Returns £170.00
Place £37.50 (pre-match) on Man Utd @ 3.20 = Returns £120.00
I’d like to add at this point that it’s always best to stick to round numbers when placing your bets as odd amounts such as £50.53 can easily be flagged up as a matched bet. You should instead place £50.00 on Wolfsburg with Bet365 and, if you’re bothered, place the extra £0.50 on Wolfsburg with another bookmaker, especially if you can get better odds elsewhere.
It’s worth noting that there is also a William Hill in play offer available on this match so you might want to place your Man Utd bet with them to bag a £10.00 in play free bet.
Let’s have a look at our profit/loss for the three potential outcomes…
| Outcome | Returns | Total Outlay | Overall Profit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wolfsburg win | 120.01 + 50.00 (refund) = 170.01 | 138.03 | £31.98 |
| Draw | 170.00 | 138.03 | £31.97 |
| Man Utd win | 120.00 + 50.00 (refund) = 170.00 | 138.03 | £31.97 |
As you can see, no matter what the result of the game, we stand to make a guaranteed minimum profit of £31.97 on this Bet365 in play offer! How long did that take? 10 minutes?
If the odds change between now and kick-off, which is almost a certainty, it’s really easy to recalculate your pre-match stakes.
Start by working out your returns on the in play draw bet. So if the draw odds have changed to 3.50, your returns on the draw would now be £175.00.
To work out your stakes on Wolfsburg and Manchester United, you need to subtract the £50.00 refund from the £175.00 which gives you £125.00 and then divide the £125.00 by the odds (in decimal form) for both Wolfsburg and Manchester United to get your respective pre-match stakes. Any problems, just give me a shout!
