Sky Bet FA Cup Special – Twice As Nice

Sunday’s Sky Bet offer for the Preston v Portsmouth game is as follows:

Twice Is Nice

Preston v Portsmouth – Back a player to score in 90 minutes and if they score twice Sky Bet will pay double!

Method:

To maximise your chance of double winnings without risking your own cash simple place bets as follows:

Check the odds at Sky Bet for first goalscorers and compare these to the lay odds for that played at BetfairPlace bets on players where the odds at Sky Bet are close to the lay odds at Betfair.  Enter the back and lay odds for the selected player(s) into the refund calculator to work out the lay odds based on your back bet at Sky Bet. They place the bet and lay the bet at Betfair using the calculator lay figure.

This will then leave you with a bet at Sky Bet for the selected player which qualifies for the double winnings offer without risking your own money (only a small loss due to laying the bet off). Should your selected player score first and again during the game you would have cancelled out your bet at Sky Bet but still qualify for the double winnings part of the offer and hence walk away with a nice profit for minimal risk.

The key to this offer is to try and bet on a number of players and the odds for first goalscorer markets are ofter closer between the bookie and betting exchange closer to kickoff.  It may also be worth trying to match Portsmouth players as they are the favourites to win the match and therefore more likely to score more than one goal.

The next step is to lay Brann/Brann on the Half Time / Full Time market at Betfair in order to lock in some profit.  Laying the result will mean that should Brann not win at half time and full time you will make some money however should they win at half time and full time then your lay be will be covered by the refund offer from Boylesports.

The refund profit lock in calculator will calculate the lay stake required on the Half Time /Full Time market for you to give the same profit regardless of the match result.

Given the odd will be around 9.00 (decimal odds) this should give you a profit of around £20 regardless of the result, not bad for initial few hundred pound outlay for one night!
