Best odds on Betfair on Man Utd recovery
It was a monumental weekend across the continent as Manchester United, Barcelona, AC Milan and FC Twente all took significantly strides towards their domestic titles, while FC Porto actually wrapped theirs up, and as you might expect, Betfair was the best place to bet on the exciting twists and turns.
The standout Premier League result of an enthralling matchday 31 saw Manchester United pull seven points clear of Arsenal with a 4-2 come-from-behind victory over West Ham at the graveyard of several past Red Devils' title challenges, the Boleyn Ground.
A £10 bet on the scoreline on Betfair returned £798 - even accounting for the maximum five per cent commission - which was almost double the £400 that Ladbrokes customers received, while the same stake on West Ham losing after leading at half-time paid out £294.50, compared to £190 with BetClic.
In the division below, the hopes of another Phil Brown karaoke session are still alive after one-time relegation certainties Preston climbed off the bottom with a their third straight win, this time against promotion chasing Swansea. £10 on 2-1 delivered £152 on Betfair, but only £100 with Ladbrokes and Stan James.
The biggest shock anywhere was Real Madrid's 1-0 home loss to Sporting Gijon, which ended their perfect record as hosts under Jose Mourinho, who was last beaten at home in a league match nine years ago. £10 on the outcome provided a £370.50 profit on Betfair, yet just £250 with William Hill, Ladbrokes and Blue Square.
There was also more money to be made betting against other people on Betfair on the Milan derby too, as AC Milan strolled to a comfortable 3-0 triumph over in-form Inter, earning £10 backers £370.50, whereas William Hill and Bwin punters were forced to settle for £220.
Don't take our word for it though, why not test Betfair yourself using Betchecker?
