Real Madrid v Liverpool Offer – 10Bet

It’s Real Madrid v Liverpool in the Champions League Final 2018 tonight and you don’t want to miss this Money Back Special from 10Bet. Simply place a £10.00 pre-match bet on selected markets for Real Madrid v Liverpool and if our bet loses and the match goes to extra-time, 10Bet will refund our stake as a free bet. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £6.85 and here’s how…

Qualifying Bet:

If you’re unsure about how to place qualifying bets, check out my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how they should be done.

Qualifying bets must be placed pre-match on the Winner, Exact Score or any Goalscorer market, to be eligible.

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 Liverpool to win.

I like to place my exchange lay bets with Betfair as they have great liquidity and the site is really easy to use.

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

Place £10.00 on Liverpool @ 3.30 = Potential profit of £23.00

Lay £9.85 on Liverpool @ 3.40 = Potential liability of £23.64

Outcomes:

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

Liverpool win + £23.00 – £23.64 = £0.64 loss
Draw – £10.00 + £9.35 + £7.50 (extract 75% from our £10.00 free bet) = £6.85 profit
Real Madrid win – £10.00 + £9.35 = £0.65 loss

So, we’ll make a nice profit of £6.85 if the match is drawn after 90 minutes and we stand to lose a maximum of £0.65 on any other outcome. Risking £0.65 to make a profit of £6.85 gives us effective odds of 11.54. So, given that the odds are around 3.80 (14/5) for the match to be drawn, this is a profitable offer in the long run.

If eligible, free bets will be credited within 24 hours of our qualifying bet being settled and will be valid for 7 days. Free bets can be placed on any sport at odds between 1.80 (4/5) and 8.00 (7/1).

If you’re unsure how to extract 75% of a £10.00 free bet, check out my Free Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.

* Real Madrid won the match 3-1, resulting in a loss of £0.65 on this 10Bet offer. *
