Strategy

It’s entirely up to you how you approach this offer.

The Women’s Euro 2022 starts on Wednesday 6th July 2022 and ends on Sunday 31st July 2022, meaning your funds at the betting exchange could be tied up for some time if your selected team does well.

That’s fine if you have a sizeable bankroll, but if not, make sure you leave yourself enough funds to do reload offers that will likely be available throughout the tournament.

Of course, another option is to not lay your bet and just let the back bet run. The free bets should cover most of the qualifying stake, and if your selected team wins, you’ll make a nice profit.

It’s entirely up to you which team you go for. At the time of writing, ‘Spain (W)‘ are available at back odds of 4.50 (7/2) and lay odds of 4.60.

Outcomes

Let’s look at your potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…

OutcomeVirgin BetBetfairProfit/Loss
Spain win+ £35.00– £35.38£0.38 loss
Another team wins– £10.00+ £9.63£0.37 loss

So, no matter the outcome, you’ll lose a maximum of £0.38 in qualifying for your potential free bets.

Free bets

You’ll receive a £5.00 free bet for every match Spain win in the group stage. Free bets will be credited within 24 hours of the result and valid on any sport for 7 days. The free bet stakes will not be returned with any winnings.

If Spain win all three of their group stage matches (against Finland, Germany and Denmark), you’ll receive £15.00 in free bets.

Using straightforward matched betting, you should convert your free bets into 80% cash, so £12.00. Taking into account your minimum qualifying loss of £0.37 gives you a potential profit of £11.63 on this Virgin Bet offer!

* Spain won two group stage matches and England won the tournament, resulting in a £7.63 profit on this Virgin Bet offer. *
