Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £7.12 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.

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 Bayern Munich in the FT 1X2 market.

Outcomes:

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

Outcome Bookie Exchange Profit/Loss
Bayern Munich win +£21.00 -£21.86 £0.86 loss
Bayern Munich don’t win -£20.00 +£19.12 £0.88 loss

So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.88 in qualifying for our £10.00 free bet.

Free Bet:

We must accept and use our £10.00 free bet before 22:00 on Sunday 23rd August 2020. Free bets must be used in play on PSG v Bayern Munich and free bet stakes are not included in any returns.

By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract 80% cash from our £10.00 free bet, so £8.00. If we take into account our maximum qualifying loss of £0.88, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £7.12 on this Virgin Bet offer!

* Bayern Munich won the match 1-0, resulting in a profit of £7.14 on this Virgin Bet offer. *
