Sky Bet – Tottenham v Leeds Boost

It’s Tottenham v Leeds in the Premier League on Sunday, and you don’t want to miss this Sky Bet price boost! They’ve enhanced Harry Kane to score from 4/6 to a rather nice 2/1. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £3.87 and here’s how…

Price boost

The maximum stake may vary per customer, but it’s likely to be £10.00.

Place £10.00 on ‘Harry Kane to score’ @ 3.00 = Potential profit of £20.00

Lay £10.21 on ‘Harry Kane (Anytime Goalscorer)’ @ 2.58 = Potential liability of £16.13

Outcomes

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

OutcomeSky BetSmarketsProfit/Loss
Kane scores+ £20.00– £16.13£3.87 profit
Kane doesn’t score– £10.00+ £10.00£0.00

So, if Harry Kane fails to score, we’ll break even, and there’s no harm done. However, if Kane does score, we’ll make a nice profit of £3.87 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 £1.48.

* Kane failed to score, resulting in break even on this Sky Bet offer. *
