United Vs. Chelsea

jive · 16-09-2011 2:27am #1

Just a heads up on some offers in case anyone is putting down some early bets!

Bet365 doing an offer where if you place a pre-match bet (up to €50) you will get a free in play bet of the same amount (i.e. if the in play bet loses they will refund you up to the same value of your pre-match bet, max €50)

PP will refund all losing 1st/last goalscorer, correct score and scorecast singles if Chelsea win.

I don't see Chelsea winning this one due to how in form United are at the minute. Chelsea have been grinding out results the last few weeks and are struggling to create any space up front. Rooney is on a mad one so you have to fancy United big time. I'm thinking of putting the pre-match bet of €50 on United and the draw (1/6) as that looks safe as houses. I will then throw €50 on some in running bet, maybe overs or unders depending on how the match is being played. Looks like a really good offer from Bet365 tbh. Wouldn't touch Power's offer, don't fancy Chelsea at all even though I'd like to see them win it :pac:

If there's any other offers or just opinions, fire away!

Ok lets see. How about this. Would this work. €50 on Man U and the draw and in play 50 on over .5 goals. Would that qualify? I have to play it as safe as possible as im dipping into my Newcastle fund to place this bet. So this bet has to be nearly nailed on.

Ok there is another cool offer in here as well. I think its pretty good as well.

hav i got this right? how about utd an draw (1/6) 50 euro, 50 in play- say maybe correct score or nxt goalscorer(where prices are decent). that looses i get my 50 refunded. ya?? if so thats well worth a go....

Blatter · 16-09-2011 5:11pm

Ya, I'd put 50 on Utd win or draw to be safe before hand.

And then in play, the best value bets I see are;

-United to win(just do it in the first minute) @5/6

-United halftime/fulltime @15/8

-Over 2.5 goals @19/20

-Hernandez(9/2), Rooney(15/4), Young(9/1) or Nani(17/2) to score first

-Hernandez(7/1) or Rooney(11/2) to score two or more goals

-United -1 handicap @11/5

markc91 · 16-09-2011 5:19pm

The last 6 games between United and Chelsea have been decided by 1 goal ......United to win by 1 is 11/4 on Bet 365.

seanhynes · 16-09-2011 5:59pm

i thought it meant u need to place 2 bets to get the free inplay bet.for example if u stake 50 on man utd to win before the match and then 20cent in play that would give you the free 50 euro bet?

I did read them. Place a pre-match bet and get a free in-play bet to the same value up to €50. The free in-play bet is essentially a refunded stake if your in-play bet happens to lose.

Yeah that's my understanding of it. Good offer for sure.

My understanding is if I place €20 on a market before kick off and I place €50 in-play and the in-play loses that I will be refunded €20 for the in-play bet. Or, alternatively, if I place €50 on a market and €50 in-play and the in-play loses then I get €50 refunded. If it wins it wins! €50 is the max refund.

I will definitely go for over 0.5 goals as "big" pre game bet. Not sure yet about "In Play" - some first goalscorers from United or them winning the match are under consideration. Any other ideas?

Edit: Just read that Phil Dowd will be referee. Over 5.5 goals definitely under consideration.

I would say there's a greater chance of a 0-0 draw than there is of Chelsea winning the game.

Therefore United and draw @1/6 is a much better Pre match bet than over .5 goals.

IMHO of course.

FearDark · 18-09-2011 2:38am

I'm going to say this right now. Torres will score tomorrow. If he doesn't I will leave boards.ie forever... *echoes* forever...forever...forever!

He will though.

I've been saying that before every game he plays

It just never seems to happen...

I will eat my hat if he scores tomorrow. He won't though:pac:

x in the city · 18-09-2011 3:40am

there was a time when torres was like messi and you could bank on him to score in every game, nowadays its more like banking on him not to score.

the whole year inn · 18-09-2011 8:56am

going with United win for the first bet and then rooney to score first for the in play bet Id reckon.

I have used the 100% match bonus for the mobile site before so I guess I cant reuse this offer again

Yardie · 18-09-2011 11:17am

Two I fancy for my prematch bet- Chelsea to win alternative card index -0 @ 8/11 is very appealing. Over 9 corners @ 8/15 looks a good one too.

Undecided about in-running bet. Considering it is a free bet I am tempted to go for a long shot like Chelsea to miss a penalty at 28/1 or just go safer and do something like Man U to score in both halves @ 7/4

the whole year inn · 18-09-2011 11:26am

jesus would you not go for torres to score a hat trick or is that crazy?

fat tony9 · 18-09-2011 11:36am

ya thats just crazy!!!

Gavin "shels" · 18-09-2011 3:56pm

Rooney first goal and Man Utd win 5/1

Hernadaz first goal and Man Utd win 6/1

Rooney two or more goals 11/2

Hernadaz two or more goals 15/2

And then with my free in running bet might do over 3.5 goals.

magherakid · 18-09-2011 4:01pm

Pre match bet Man utd Evs
In Play bet Ashley Young 3/1 any time to score

jive · 18-09-2011 4:11pm

put the €50 free on under 3.5 @ 5/6. Was watching the all ireland till half time and when I flicked on United had just scored. Already have pre-match €50 on United and the draw. After putting on the under 3.5 the game is looking very loose but hopefully it'll calm down and we won't see 3 more goals and I'll laugh all the way to the bank

Gavin "shels" · 18-09-2011 4:24pm

Where the hell is the free in running bet?

They refund it after afaik gav!! If it loses they'll give ya the stake back (not as a free bet from what I've read, just cash back into your account).

Yup it is, asked on Livechat, thankfully I didn't know that till after Nani scored as I had Rooney 5/1 picked when on Livechat. Gone for Rooney 3rd goal 5/1.

ROONEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

Blatter · 18-09-2011 4:51pm

Going for the jugular.

€50 on Anderson to score the next goal @28/1.

jive · 18-09-2011 4:54pm

My under 3.5 is well and truly in trouble now! I'll still be up a whopping €8.33 from my United and the draw bet though worst case scenario....unless Chelsea win. ;D

jive · 18-09-2011 5:10pm

Oh lol as if Torres was the one who put my bet to bed. Been wanting him to score for months and the one time I don't want him to he does. And the Dubs put my all ireland bet (kk 13/8 and kerry 10/3) since March out the window as well. All in all a bad few minutes at the office :pac:

€8.33 in the green though thanks to United... not worth it for the stress I've had to endure with the gaelic!

edit: just watched the goal, some finish.
