OutcomeBetfredBetfairProfit/Loss
Man City win+ £11.00– £11.37£0.37 loss
Man City lose or draw– £10.00+ £9.61£0.39 loss

So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.39 in qualifying for our potential free bet.

Free bet

We’ll receive a £5.00 free bet if Liverpool and Man City both score. Free bets will be credited by 17:00 on Monday 8th February 2021 and will be valid until 09:00 on Tuesday 9th February 2021.

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 minimum qualifying loss of £0.37, this gives us a potential profit of £3.63 on this Betfred offer!

* Man City won the match 4-1, resulting in a profit of £3.63 on this Betfred offer. *
