It’s Sevilla v Man Utd in the Champions League tonight and you don’t want to miss this SportPesa price boost! They’ve enhanced Man Utd to win from 8/5 to a tasty 9/4. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a risk-free potential profit of £4.47 and here’s how…
Price Boost bet:
The exact stake required for this price boost is £15.00.
The normal odds on Man Utd winning are 2.60. This means that if our bet wins, we’ll receive £39.00 in cash (normal odds) and a £9.75 free bet (price boost up to 3.25). We know we can extract 75% of any free bet as cash, so in this case £7.31, giving us total cash returns of £46.31 and effective back odds of 3.087. We’ll enter these into the calculator in a moment.
We can underlay Man Utd on the Betfair Exchange to make this offer risk-free.
We can calculate our underlay stake using my matched betting calculator. We just need to open up the ‘SHOW ADVANCED’ section and click the ‘UNDERLAY’ tab…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £15.79…
Place £15.00 on Man Utd to win @ 3.25 = Potential profit of £31.31
Lay £15.79 on Man Utd to win @ 2.70 = Potential liability of £26.84
Outcomes:
Let’s have a look at our profit/loss for the two potential outcomes…
Man Utd win | + £31.31 – £26.84 = £4.47 profit |
Man Utd don’t win | – £15.00 + £15.00 (£15.79 minus 5% commission) = £0.00 |
So, if Man Utd don’t win, we’ll break even and there’s no harm done. However, if Man Utd do win, we’ll make a nice risk-free profit of £4.47 on this SportPesa price boost!
