BetVictor Offer – Liverpool v Tottenham

Tottenham visit Liverpool in the EFL Cup tonight and you don’t want to miss this BetVictor offer! Simply opt-in and bet £5.00+ on selected Liverpool v Tottenham markets, and BetVictor will give us a £5.00 free bet to be used on Manchester United v Manchester City on Wednesday. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.21 and here’s how…

Qualifying Bet:

We must opt-in to this offer to be eligible.

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 pre-match between 12:00 on Monday 24th October 2016 and 23:00 on Tuesday 25th October 2016 on one of the following markets…

  • Correct Score
  • First Goalscorer
  • Anytime Goalscorer
  • Goalscorer Plus
  • To Win and Both Teams to Score
  • Scorecast
  • Match Action
  • Player Specials

Having looked at the odds available, I’ve opted to place my qualifying bet on 2-0 to Liverpool in the Correct Score market.

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 my matched betting calculator…

Place £5.00 on 2-0 Liverpool @ 9.00 = Potential profit of £40.00

Lay £4.29 on 2-0 Liverpool @ 10.50 = Potential liability of £40.79

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

2-0 Liverpool + £40.00 – £40.79 = £0.79 loss
Not 2-0 Liverpool – £5.00 + £4.21 (£4.29 minus 2% commission) = £0.79 loss

So, regardless of the result of the match, we will lose £0.79 in qualifying for our £5.00 free bet.

Free Bet:

Our £5.00 free bet will be credited upon placement of our qualifying bet and will be valid until 23:59 on Wednesday 26th October 2016.

By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract at least 80% of the £5.00 free bet as cash, so around £4.00. If we take into consideration our qualifying loss of £0.79, we should make a guaranteed profit of £3.21 on this BetVictor offer!
