Place a pre-match ‘Correct Score’ bet on Argentina v France and get 50% of your stake back as a free bet up to £25.00 if it loses. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives you a profit of £9.78 and here’s how…
Key terms

Qualifying bet
If your bet loses, 50% of your stake will be refunded as a free bet up to £25.00, so you can treat this as a ‘Money back if bet loses‘ offer.
To be eligible for the maximum £25.00 free bet, you’ll need to stake £50.00. It’s best to place your bet at long odds to maximise profit.
At the time of writing, ‘France 2-0‘ is available at back odds of 15.00 (14/1). The lay odds are 18.00.
Either exchange works for this offer
Betfair and Smarkets are both great options for this offer. If you’ve not used one of them, now is a great time to give them a try.
- Money back as cash up to £20
- 0% commission for 60 days
You can work out your lay stake using the ‘Money Back if Bet Loses‘ setting on my Matched Betting Calculator. You can enter £20.00 as your ‘Cashback’ figure as this is the amount you can expect to convert your £25.00 free bet into, should your bet lose.
As you can see, the calculator tells you that your lay stake should be £40.60.
Place £50.00 on ‘France 2-0’ (Correct Score) @ 15.00 = Potential profit of £700.00
Lay £40.60 on ‘0-2 (France)’ (Correct Score) @ 18.00 = Potential liability of £690.20
Outcomes
Let’s look at your profit/loss for the possible outcomes.
| Outcome | Star Sports | Betfair | Free Bet | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| France win 2-0 | + £700.00 | – £690.20 | £9.80 profit | |
| Any other outcome | – £50.00 | + £39.78 | + £20.00 | £9.78 profit |
So, no matter the outcome, you’ll make a minimum profit of £9.78 on this Star Sports offer!
