Best odds on Betfair as Man Utd go ahead
For the first time since Roman Abramovich arrived in west London in 2003, Manchester United triumphed over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and their long-awaited win their couldn't have come at a better time, putting them in pole position to progress through to the Champions League semi-finals.
Wayne Rooney was the hero after scoring his fourth goal in the capital in the space of five days and his first-half strike would have been celebrated wildly by Betfair customers that had backed the Red Devils to claim a 1-0 victory, as the best odds on the scoreline were offered on Betfair.
Those that stuck £10 on that result enjoyed a £95 profit - even accounting for the maximum five per cent commission - whereas Ladbrokes, Victor Chandler and Sporting Bet users received only £70.
There was also more money to be made betting with other people on Betfair on Sir Alex Ferguson's side leading at half-time and full-time in the quarter-final first leg, as a £10 stake returned £64.60, compared to just £42 on Sporting Bet. That's a whopping 53 per cent difference in payout!
Don't take our word for it though, why not test Betfair yourself using Betchecker?
