England v Ireland Offer – Paddy Power

It’s England v Ireland in the Six Nations on Sunday and you don’t want to miss this Money Back Special from Paddy Power. Simply place a bet on any market and if Ireland win, 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 £7.60 and here’s how…

Key Terms:

  • Qualifying bets must be placed between 17:00 on Tuesday 18th February 2020 and 15:00 (kick-off) on Sunday 23rd February 2020.
  • This offer applies to all England v Ireland markets.
  • If our first bet loses and Ireland win, Paddy Power will refund our stake as a free bet, up to £10.00.

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.

It makes sense to place our qualifying bet on England (2/5) in the Match Odds market as if Ireland win, our qualifying bet will have lost.

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

Outcomes:

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

Outcome Bookie Exchange Extracted Profit/Loss
England win +£4.00 -£4.40 £0.40 loss
Ireland win -£10.00 +£9.60 +£8.00 £7.60 profit
Draw -£10.00 +£9.60 £0.40 loss

So, we’ll make a nice profit of £7.60 if Ireland win and we stand to lose around £0.40 on any other outcome. Risking £0.40 to make a profit of £7.60, gives us effective odds of 20.00. So, given that Ireland are odds of just 3.25 (9/4) to win the match, this is a profitable offer in the long run.

If eligible, free bets will be credited within 2 hours of the match ending.

If you’re unsure how to extract £8.00 cash (80%) from the £10.00 free bet, check out my Free Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.
