It’s Liverpool v Man City in today’s 16:00 kick-off and you don’t want to miss this William Hill free bet offer! Simply bet £5.00+ on Liverpool v Man City and William Hill will give us a £5.00 free bet to use on football. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.56 and here’s how…
Qualifying Bet:
If you’re unfamiliar with qualifying bets, please see my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how they should be done.
To qualify for the £5.00 free bet, we must bet £5.00+ on Liverpool v Man City at odds of 1.50 (1/2) or greater. Qualifying bets can be placed pre-match or in play, though any bets placed with ‘Bet Boost’ will not be eligible.
It’s entirely up to you what you place your qualifying bet on. Having looked at the odds available, we could place our qualifying bet on Man City in the 90 Minutes market.
I like to place my exchange lay bets with Betfair as they have great liquidity and the site is really easy to use. Also, if we opt in, they are charging just 2% commission on Premier League Match Odds bets in January 2018.
We can calculate our lay stake using my matched betting calculator…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £4.91…
Place £5.00 on Man City @ 2.30 = Potential profit of £6.50
Lay £4.91 on Man City @ 2.36 = Potential liability of £6.67
Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…
| Man City win | + £6.50 – £6.67 = £0.17 loss |
| Man City don’t win | – £5.00 + £4.81 (£4.91 minus 2% commission) = £0.19 loss |
So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.19 in qualifying for our £5.00 free bet.
Free Bet:
Our £5.00 free bet will be credited by 21:00 on Sunday 14th January 2018 and will be valid for 4 days.
By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract 75% of the £5.00 free bet as cash, so £3.75. If we take into consideration our maximum qualifying loss of £0.19, we should make a guaranteed profit of £3.56 on this William Hill offer!
* Liverpool won the match 4-3, resulting in a profit of £3.56 on this William Hill offer. *
