It’s Sevilla v Barcelona in La Liga on Saturday and Unibet are getting in on the action! They’re giving customers a 25% profit boost to use in play on the big match! Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £2.98 and here’s how…
Key Terms:
- Maximum stake of £25.00.
- Our profit boost will be visible in our betslip once we have selected an eligible bet.
- Qualifying bets must be placed in play at odds of 1.40 (2/5) or greater.
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.
Once selected in our betslip, the profit boost will boost our odds by 25%.
It’s impossible to know what odds will be available until the match has kicked off (15:15 on Saturday 23rd February 2019).
I’ll use the pre-match back odds on Sevilla in the following example, to illustrate how this offer should be done.
At the time of writing, the back odds are 3.70, so we need to work out what our new odds will be once the 25% profit boost has been applied…
3.70 – 1.00 (stake) = 2.70
2.70 * 1.25 (25%) = 3.375
3.375 + 1.00 (stake) = 4.375
Laying our bet at Smarkets is likely to give us the biggest guaranteed profit.
We can calculate our lay stake using my matched betting calculator.
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £28.56…
Place £25.00 on Sevilla @ 4.375 = Potential profit of £84.38
Lay £28.56 on Sevilla @ 3.85 = Potential liability of £81.39
Outcomes:
Let’s have a look at our profit/loss for the two potential outcomes…
Outcome | Bookie | Exchange | Profit/Loss |
---|---|---|---|
Sevilla win | +£84.38 | -£81.39 | £2.99 profit |
Sevilla don’t win | -£25.00 | +£27.98 | £2.98 profit |
So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll make a guaranteed profit of £2.98 on this Unibet offer!
* A draw was available at back odds of 3.80 and lay odds of 4.10. Barcelona won the match 4-2, resulting in a profit of £2.01 on this Unibet offer. *
