Big prize on Betfair as Stoke rout Wolves

Game in hands regularly prove invaluable at this stage of the season but not only did Wolves fail to take advantage of theirs away to Stoke on Tuesday night, but the match unfolded so disastrously that it ended up doing more harm to their survival chances than not playing at all.

Mick McCarthy's side unwillingly claimed control of the joint-worst goal difference in the Premier League after a 3-0 loss at the Britannia Stadium extended their winless run to four games, but the shrewd punters who backed the scoreline on Betfair will have been too ecstatic to show sympathy.

Anyone that stuck £10 on the FA Cup finalists triumphing by such a dominant margin received a £166.25 profit - even accounting for the maximum five per cent commission - whereas Bwin customers gained just £110 and Bet365 and Victor Chandler backers a scarcely superior £120.

There was also unsurprisingly more money to be made betting against other people on Betfair on the Champions League semi-final between Schalke and Manchester United, with £10 on the visitors winning 2-0 providing a £95 profit compared to only £70 with BetClic.

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