Sky Bet Offer – Soccer Special Price Boost

It wouldn’t be a big weekend of Premier League action without a Sky Bet Soccer Special Price Boost! They’ve enhanced Southampton, Stoke City and Bournemouth all to win from 8/1 to a tasty 10/1. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a risk-free potential profit of £18.39 and here’s how…

Price Boost bet:

Maximum stakes for this offer may vary for different accounts, but the following example is based on a maximum stake of £25.00. We can underlay this accumulator on the Betfair Exchange to make this offer risk-free.

We can find the acca market via the following link trail…

Football > English Premier League > 15.00 Acca Sat 29th Apr

We just need to divide our stake of £25.00 by 0.95 to account for the 5% commission that Betfair charge on net winnings. This gives us a lay stake of £26.32…

skybet

Place £25.00 on Southampton, Stoke & Bournemouth to win @ 11.00 = Potential profit of £250.00

betfair

Lay £26.32 on Southampton/Stoke/Bournemouth @ 9.80 = Potential liability of £231.61

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

Treble wins + £250.00 – £231.61 = £18.39 profit
Treble doesn’t win – £25.00 + £25.00 (£26.32 minus 5% commission) = £0.00

So, if our enhanced treble doesn’t win, we’ll break even and there’s no harm done. If it does win, however, we’ll make a nice risk-free profit of £18.39 on this Sky Bet offer.

NOTE: If you don’t want to underlay this price boost, you can just lay it normally for a guaranteed profit of £1.76.
