Outcomes

Let’s look at your potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…

OutcomeBetfredBetfairProfit/Loss
Both teams score – Yes+ £6.67– £7.33£0.66 loss
Both teams score – No– £10.00+ £9.33£0.67 loss

So, no matter the outcome, you’ll lose a maximum of £0.67 in qualifying for your potential free bets.

Free bets

You’ll receive £5.00 in free bets if Salah or Son score first. The free bets will be credited by 12:00 on Sunday 8th May 2022 and valid until 09:00 on Monday 9th May 2022.

Using straightforward matched betting, you should convert your £5.00 in free bets into 80% cash, so £4.00. Considering your minimum qualifying loss of £0.66 gives you a potential profit of £3.34 on this Betfred offer!

Risking a potential loss of £0.67 to make a potential profit of £3.34 gives you effective odds of 5.99. So, given that the odds for Salah and Son to score first are 3.75 (11/4) and 6.00 (5/1), respectively, this is a profitable offer in the long run.

* Son Heung-Min scored the first goal in a 1-1 draw, resulting in a £3.34 profit on this Betfred offer. *
