Outcomes:

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

Outcome Bookie Exchange Profit/Loss
Man Utd win + £13.75 – £13.97 £0.22 loss
Man Utd don’t win – £10.00 + £9.78 £0.22 loss

So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll lose £0.22 in qualifying for our potential free bet.

Free Bet:

We’ll receive a £5.00 free bet if Everton and Man Utd both score. Free bets will be credited by 15:00 on Saturday 7th November 2020 and will be valid until 09:00 on Sunday 8th November 2020.

Using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to convert our free bet into 80% cash, so £4.00. If we take into account our qualifying loss of £0.22, this gives us a potential profit of £3.78 on this Betfred offer!

* Man Utd won the match 3-1, resulting in a profit of £3.78 on this Betfred offer. *
