Tips for this offer
One of the best ways to approach this offer is to build a bet using 'Total Goals' selections, which you can then lay as one bet in the ‘Correct Score’ market.
For example, you could build 'Over 1.5 (Total Goals) / Under 3.5 (Total Goals) / Over 0.5 (Newcastle Total Goals) / Under 1.5 (Newcastle Total Goals) / Under 1.5 (Barcelona Total Goals)'.
You would then lay '1-1 (Draw)' at Smarkets in their 'Correct Score' market.
Aim for a profit of £3.50 on this Tote offer.

How to lay a Bet Builder
If you’re looking to lay a football Bet Builder, you’re in luck. All you need to do is add the right combination of selections, and you’ll be able to lay your Bet Builder in one bet at the betting exchange.
