Premier League 2019/20 Offer – Paddy Power

The wait for Premier League football comes to an end on Friday and you don’t want to miss this Paddy Power offer. Simply bet £10.00+ on the Premier League 2019/20 top goalscorer and Paddy Power will give us a £5.00 free bet to use on the opening weekend! Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £2.35 and here’s how…

Key Terms:

  • Qualifying bets must be placed between 18:00 on Friday 2nd August 2019 and 20:00 (kick-off) on Friday 9th August 2019.
  • We must place a £10.00+ win only or £5.00+ each way single on the English Premier League – Top Goalscorer market.
  • We’ll receive a £5.00 free bet to use on the opening weekend of Premier League football, between Saturday 10th August 2019 and Sunday 11th August 2019.

NOTE: This post has been put together from a matched betting perspective. It’s important to bear in mind though that this means tying up some of our exchange funds until the end of the season. The alternative is to place a qualifying bet without laying. We’ll be able to extract £4.00 cash from our £5.00 free bet to cover some of the £10.00 stake and we could win big if our selected player goes on to be top goalscorer.

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.

It’s entirely up to you which player you place your qualifying bet on. Having looked at the odds available, we could place our qualifying bet on Harry Kane (4/1).

We can calculate our lay stakes using my matched betting calculator.

Aim to lose no more than £1.65 on our qualifying bet

Outcomes:

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

Outcome Bookie Exchange Profit/Loss
Kane top scores +£40.00 -£41.65 £1.65 loss
Kane doesn’t top score -£10.00 +£8.35 £1.65 loss

So, regardless of who finishes top goalscorer, we’ll lose £1.65 in qualifying for our £5.00 free bet.

NOTE: It’s worth pointing out that if we select the same player for the various different bookmaker Top Goalscorer offers, we would need a large amount in our exchange account to cover the overall liability. By selecting a few different players, we can reduce our overall liability at the exchange. That’s because only one player can be top goalscorer (winnings are reduced if players finish tied), so we just need enough exchange funds to cover the player with the largest liability.

Free Bet:

Our £5.00 free bet will be credited upon placement of our qualifying bet and will be valid on the opening weekend of Premier League football, between Saturday 10th August 2019 and Sunday 11th August 2019.

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 qualifying loss of £1.65, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £2.35 on this Paddy Power offer!

* Harry Kane failed to finish the season as Top Goalscorer, resulting in a profit of £2.35 on this Paddy Power offer. *
