Place £10.00 on Chelsea to win @ 2.00 = Potential profit of £10.00

Lay £13.16 on Chelsea @ 1.54 = Potential liability of £7.10

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

Chelsea win + £10.00 – £7.10 = £2.90 profit
Chelsea don’t win – £10.00 + £12.89 (£13.16 minus 2% commission) = £2.89 profit

So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll make a guaranteed profit of £2.89 on this Sky Bet price boost!

* Chelsea lost the match 1-0, resulting in a profit of £2.89 on this Sky Bet price boost. *
