It’s Man City v Liverpool in the Premier League on Thursday and you don’t want to miss this Money Back Special from Ladbrokes! Simply place a bet on selected markets for Man City v Liverpool and if our bet loses, Ladbrokes will give us our money back as a free bet, up to £10.00. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £5.38 and here’s how…
Key Terms:
- Qualifying bets must be placed between 08:00 on Wednesday 2nd January 2019 and 20:00 (kick-off) on Thursday 3rd January 2019.
- The eligible markets are First/Last/Anytime Goalscorer, Correct Score and #GetAPrice.
- If our bet loses, Ladbrokes will refund our stake as a free bet, up to a maximum of £10.00.
Qualifying Bet:
If you’re unsure about how to place qualifying bets, check out my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.
Losing stakes are refunded as a free bet, so this is effectively a risk-free bet offer. We therefore need to select something with long odds.
Having looked at the odds available, we could place our qualifying bet on a 2-2 draw in the Correct Score market.
At the time of writing, laying our bet at Smarkets is likely to give us the biggest guaranteed profit.
We can work out our lay stake by using the ‘Risk-Free Bet’ setting on my matched betting calculator. We can enter £8.00 as our ‘Cashback’ figure as this is the amount we can expect to extract (80%) from our £10.00 free bet, should our bet lose…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £7.57…
Place £10.00 on a 2-2 draw @ 11.00 = Potential profit of £100.00
Lay £7.57 on a 2-2 draw @ 13.50 = Potential liability of £94.62
Outcomes:
Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…
| Outcome | Bookie | Exchange | Extracted | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2-2 draw | +£100.00 | -£94.62 | £5.38 profit | |
| Not a 2-2 draw | -£10.00 | +£7.41 | +£8.00 | £5.41 profit |
So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll make a guaranteed profit of £5.38 on this Ladbrokes offer!
If our selection loses, our free bet will be credited within 24 hours of our qualifying bet being settled. Free bets will be valid for 7 days and free bet stakes will not be returned with any winnings.
