It’s Man City v Leeds in Saturday’s early kick-off and you don’t want to miss this Sky Bet price boost! They’ve enhanced Sergio Aguero to have 1+ shot on target from 1/8 to a rather nice evens. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a risk-free potential profit of £2.84 and here’s how…

We can calculate our underlay stake using my Matched Betting Calculator. We just need to open up the ‘ADVANCED’ section and click the ‘Underlay’ tab…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £10.53…
Place £10.00 on ‘Sergio Aguero 1+ shot on target’ @ 2.00 = Potential profit of £10.00
Lay £10.53 on ‘Sergio Aguero To Have Over 0.5 Shots on Target’ @ 1.68 = Potential liability of £7.16
Outcomes
Let’s have a look at our profit/loss for the two potential outcomes…
| Outcome | Sky Bet | Matchbook | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| Boost bet wins | + £10.00 | – £7.16 | £2.84 profit |
| Boost bet loses | – £10.00 | + £10.00 | £0.00 |
So, if Sergio Aguero fails to have a shot on target, we’ll break even and there’s no harm done. However, if Aguero does have a shot on target, we’ll make a nice risk-free profit of £2.84 on this Sky Bet price boost!
Note: If you would prefer to lock in a smaller profit, you can simply use the ‘Standard‘ tab on the calculator for a guaranteed profit of £1.65.
* Sergio Aguero was injured and was therefore not named in Man City’s matchday squad. All bets were declared void, resulting in break even on this Sky Bet price boost. *
