Betfair paid out more than all other betting companies on Manchester United's 1-0 win at Ibrox last night, according to our new price comparison website Betchecker.

Wayne Rooney's second club goal of the season on his first start in close to two months, scored from the spot in the 87th minute, maintained Manchester United's perfect away record in this year's Champions League, while the clean sheet ensured that they are yet to concede in seven-and-a-half hours of European football.

Those who stuck a tenner on the 1-0 away triumph were rewarded with a payout of £68.40, even accounting for the maximum five per cent commission, whereas Coral and BetClic customers only saw back £50.

Another match in which Betfair punters reaped the greatest rewards was Schalke's 3-0 stroll past Lyon to both qualify and climb to the top of Group B. Anyone who staked £10 on that scoreline won £313.50 on Betfair, compared to £185 if they placed their bet with Bwin.

Don't take our word for it though, why not test Betfair yourself using Betchecker?
