It’s England v Albania in World Cup 2022 Qualifying on Friday night and The Pools are getting in on the action! Place £5.00 on 4 or more goals to be scored in the match at boosted odds of 9/5 and qualify for a £5.00 free bet if you bet a further £20.00 on both European World Cup Qualifying and horse racing this weekend. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £5.38 and here’s how…
Price boost
In order to qualify for the two ‘Bet £20, Get £5’ offers, we need to place a bet of £5.00+ on 4 or more goals to be scored in the match at boosted odds of 2.80 (9/5).
For a walkthrough of how to lay price boosts, please see my price boosts guide.

- Money back as cash up to £20
- 0% commission for 60 days
We can calculate our lay stake using my Matched Betting Calculator…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £4.47…
Place £5.00 on ‘4 or more goals to be scored in the match’ @ 2.80 = Potential profit of £9.00
Lay £4.47 on ‘Over 3.5 Goals’ @ 3.15 = Potential liability of £9.61
Outcomes
Let’s have a look at our profit/loss for the two potential outcomes…
| Outcome | The Pools | Betfair | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 or more goals | + £9.00 | – £9.61 | £0.61 loss |
| 3 or fewer goals | – £5.00 | + £4.38 | £0.62 loss |
So, no matter the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.62 in qualifying for our two ‘Bet £20, Get £5’ offers.

Free bets
Our 2 x £5.00 free bets will be credited by midday the day following bet settlement and will be valid for 7 days.
Using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to convert our free bets into 80% cash, so £8.00. If we take into account our total expected qualifying loss of £2.00 and our price boost maximum qualifying loss of £0.62, this gives us an overall guaranteed profit of £5.38 on this The Pools offer!
* England won the match 5-0, resulting in a profit of £5.39 on this The Pools offer. *
