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 £4.77…
Place £5.00 on England @ 1.364 = Potential profit of £1.82
Lay £4.77 on England @ 1.45 = Potential liability of £2.14
Outcomes
Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…
| Outcome | Sky Bet | Smarkets | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| England win | + £1.82 | – £2.14 | £0.32 loss |
| England lose or draw | – £5.00 | + £4.67 | £0.33 loss |
So, no matter the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.33 in qualifying for our £5.00 free bet.
Free bet
Our £5.00 free bet will be credited upon placement of our qualifying bet and will be valid on any market. Free bets do not have an expiry date and free bet stakes are not included in any returns.
Using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to convert our free bet into 80% cash, so £4.00. If we take into account our maximum qualifying loss of £0.33, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.67 on this Sky Bet offer!
* England won the match 4-0, resulting in a profit of £3.68 on this Sky Bet offer. *
