Paddy Power – Liverpool v Man City Offer

It’s Liverpool v Man City in the Premier League on Sunday, and you don’t want to miss this Paddy Power free bet offer! They’re giving selected customers a £5.00 free Bet Builder to use on the big match. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives you a profit of £3.05 and here’s how…

Key terms

  • The promotion is available to new and existing customers.
  • Claim your free bet via the promotion page after 12:00 on Thursday 13th October 2022.
  • Once claimed, your £5.00 free bet will be credited instantly.
  • The free bet can be used on a Liverpool v Man City Bet Builder (4+ selections).
  • The free bet must be placed before kick-off (16:30 on Sunday 16th October 2022).
  • The free bet stake will not be returned with any winnings.

Free bet

It’s entirely up to you how you play this offer.

You could take a speculative approach and not lay your Bet Builder. If your free bet loses, you simply break even, and there’s no harm done.

Your other option is to convert your free bet into cash by laying it at a betting exchange. Please see my Bet Builders guide for more information about them and possible selections.

At the time of writing, you could place your free bet on ‘Man City (Match Odds) / Yes (Both teams to Score?) / Over 2.5 Goals / Under 3.5 Goals‘ at back odds of 7.93. The lay odds are 11.00.

You can calculate your lay stake using the ‘Free Bet‘ setting on my Matched Betting Calculator.
