Man City v Man Utd Offer – William Hill

It’s Man City v Man Utd in one of Sunday’s late kick-offs and you don’t want to miss this ‘Bet £10, Get £5’ offer from William Hill! Simply bet £10.00 on Man City v Man Utd and William Hill will give us a £5.00 free bet to use on any sport. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.59 and here’s how…

Key Terms:

  • We must click ‘Claim here‘ on the promotion page to receive our free bet.
  • Qualifying bets must be placed between 18:00 on Saturday 10th November 2018 and the final whistle of Man City v Man Utd on Sunday 11th November 2018.
  • We must stake £10.00 at odds of 1.20 (1/5) or greater.
  • Qualifying bets can be placed pre-match or in play.

Qualifying Bet:

If you’re unfamiliar with qualifying bets, please see my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.

Having looked at the odds available, we could place our qualifying bet on Man City in the 90 Minutes market.

At the time of writing, laying our bet at Smarkets gives us the smallest qualifying loss.

We can calculate our lay stake using my matched betting calculator…

Place £10.00 on Man City @ 1.38 = Potential profit of £3.80

Smarkets logo

Lay £9.79 on Man City @ 1.43 = Potential liability of £4.20

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

Man City win + £3.80 – £4.20 = £0.40 loss
Man City don’t win – £10.00 + £9.59 (£9.79 minus 2% commission) = £0.41 loss

So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.41 in qualifying for our £5.00 free bet.

Free Bet:

Our £5.00 free bet should be credited no later than 10:00 on Monday 12th November 2018 and will be valid for 4 days. Free bet stakes will not be included in any returns.

By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract 80% cash from our £5.00 free bet, so £4.00. If we take into account our maximum qualifying loss of £0.41, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.59 on this William Hill offer!

* Man City won the match 3-1, resulting in a profit of £3.60 on this William Hill offer. *
