Big odds on Betfair on Everton comeback!
You can now use our brilliant Betchecker site to find out how much you'd have won betting on half-time/full-time outcomes on Betfair compared to with other betting companies and there was no surprise as to where the biggest odds were offered on Saturday's Everton versus West Ham clash.
West Ham led 1-0 at the break in an entertaining encounter at Goodison Park after Jonathan Spector scored his first ever Premier League goal against international team-mate Tim Howard but they were twice pegged back in the second half, much to the delight of punters who backed West Ham/Draw.
Anyone who had £10 on West Ham being ahead at the interval before eventually being forced to settle for a point enjoyed a profit of £228 on Betfair - even accounting for the maximum five per cent commission - whereas Ladbrokes, BetClic and Stan James customers only received £140.
As ever, there was more money to be made betting against other people on correct scores in the Premier League this weekend, as £10 on Blackburn winning the Sunday game against West Brom 2-0 returned £114, a vast improvement on the £70 paid out by Ladbrokes.
The pattern was repeated for Sunderland's 2-1 victory at Blackpool - a result which means that every match at Bloomfield Road this season has still had over 2.5 goals with both teams scoring - with £10 on the Kieran Richardson-inspired away success delivering Betfair backers £114, compared to £80 with Bwin, Ladbrokes and Blue Square.
