It’s Chelsea v Liverpool in the EFL Cup Final on Sunday, and you don’t want to miss this Sky Bet price boost! They’ve enhanced Mo Salah to score in 90 minutes from 6/4 to a rather nice 3/1. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a profit of £4.48 and here’s how…
Price boost
The maximum stake may vary per customer, but it’s likely to be £10.00.

We can calculate our underlay stake using my Matched Betting Calculator. We just need to open up the ‘Advanced’ section and click the ‘Underlay’ tab…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £10.21…
Place £10.00 on ‘Salah to score in 90mins’ @ 4.00 = Potential profit of £30.00
Lay £10.21 on ‘Mohamed Salah’ (Anytime Goalscorer) @ 3.50 = Potential liability of £25.52
Outcomes
Let’s look at our profit/loss for the two potential outcomes…
| Outcome | Sky Bet | Smarkets | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| Salah scores in 90 mins | + £30.00 | – £25.52 | £4.48 profit |
| Salah doesn’t score in 90 mins | – £10.00 | + £10.00 | £0.00 |
So, if Mo Salah fails to score in 90 minutes, we’ll break even, and there’s no harm done. However, if Salah does score in 90 minutes, we’ll make a nice profit of £4.48 on this Sky Bet price boost!
If you prefer to lock in a smaller profit, you can simply use the ‘Standard’ tab on the calculator for a fixed profit of £1.26.
