Coral Offer – West Ham v Arsenal

West Ham host Arsenal in today’s early kick-off and Coral are running a great price boost on the action. They’re enhancing both teams to score from 4/7 to a tasty 7/4 for a limited time only. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £5.76 and here’s how…

There is a maximum stake of £10.00 and the price may not hang around. You can find it under ‘Enhanced Multiples’ and then by searching West Ham.

We can work out our lay stake using the following calculator…

Lay £16.08 on ‘Both Teams to Score – YES’ @ 1.73 = Potential liability of £11.74

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

Both teams score + £17.50 – £11.74 = £5.76 profit
Someone keeps a clean sheet -£10.00 + £15.76 (£16.08 minus 2% commission) = £5.76 profit

So regardless of whether both teams score or not, we will make a guaranteed profit of £5.76 on this Coral price boost.
