Tottenham v Chelsea Offer – Unibet

It’s Tottenham v Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday and Unibet are getting in on the action! Simply bet £10.00+ on Tottenham or Chelsea to win the match and if our selected team wins, Unibet will give us a £5.00 free bet on top of our winnings. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £3.63 and here’s how…

Key Terms:

  • We must opt in to this offer to be eligible.
  • The minimum qualifying stake is £10.00.
  • Qualifying bets must be placed before 17:30 (kick-off) on Saturday 24th November 2018.
  • We must place our bet on either Tottenham or Chelsea to win.

Qualifying Bet:

If you’re unfamiliar with qualifying bets, please see my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how they should be done.

It’s entirely up to you which team you place your qualifying bet on. Having looked at the odds available, we could place our qualifying bet on Tottenham.

At the time of writing, laying our bet at Smarkets gives us the smallest qualifying loss.

We can calculate our lay stakes using my matched betting calculator…

As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £9.83…

Place £10.00 on Tottenham @ 2.85 = Potential profit of £18.50

Smarkets logo

Lay £9.83 on Tottenham @ 2.92 = Potential liability of £18.87

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

Tottenham win + £18.50 – £18.87 + £4.00 (extract 80% from £5.00 free bet) = £3.63 profit
Tottenham don’t win – £10.00 + £9.63 (£9.83 minus 2% commission) = £0.37 loss

So, if Tottenham win, we’ll have made a profit of £3.63. If Tottenham don’t win, we’ll have made a loss of £0.37. Risking £0.37 to make a profit of £3.63 gives us effective odds of 10.81. So, given that Tottenham are odds of just 2.85 (37/20) to win the match, this a profitable offer in the long run.

If eligible, our £5.00 free bet will be credited within 24 hours. Free bet stakes are not included in any returns.

If you’re not sure how to extract 80% cash from a free bet, please see my Free Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.

* Tottenham won the match 3-1, resulting in a profit of £3.63 on this Unibet offer. *
