Croatia v England Offer – Paddy Power

It’s Croatia v England on Wednesday night and you don’t want to miss this Money Back Special from Paddy Power. Simply place a bet on selected markets and if Harry Kane scores in 90 minutes, Paddy Power will refund all losing bets as a free bet, up to a maximum of £10.00. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £6.35 and here’s how…

Qualifying Bet:

If you’re unsure about how to place qualifying bets, check out my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how they should be done.

Qualifying bets must be placed pre-match. The eligible markets are First/Last/Anytime Goalscorer, Correct Score and WhatOddsPaddy.

For our qualifying bet, we need to back and lay a selection of our choice. Having looked at the odds available, we could place our qualifying bet on a 0-0 draw (6/1) in the Correct Score market.

We can calculate our lay stakes using my matched betting calculator.

Aim to lose no more than £1.65 on our qualifying bet

Outcomes:

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

0-0 draw + £60.00 – £61.65 = £1.65 loss
Not a 0-0 draw and Kane scores – £10.00 + £8.35 + £8.00 (extract 80% from our £10.00 free bet) = £6.35 profit
Not a 0-0 draw and Kane doesn’t score – £10.00 + £8.35 = £1.65 loss

So, we’ll make a nice profit of £6.35 if Harry Kane scores in 90 minutes and we stand to lose around £1.65 on any other outcome. Risking £1.65 to make a profit of £6.35 gives us effective odds of 4.85. So, given that Kane is odds of just 2.375 (11/8) to score anytime, this is a profitable offer in the long run.

If eligible, free bets will be credited within two hours of the match ending and will be valid for 7 days on football markets.

* The match was drawn 1-1 after 90 minutes and Kane didn’t score, resulting in a loss of £1.65 on this Paddy Power offer. *
