Betfair punters benefit from Napoli thriller
Napoli kept their hopes of being the only Italian team to qualify from the Europa League group stage alive with a thrilling 3-3 draw away to FC Utrecht last night, with Uruguayan goal machine Edinson Cavani scoring a hat-trick to inspire a comeback from 3-1 down which eliminated their hosts.
Any Betfair punters who saw the great-to-watch Partenopei's second 3-3 draw of the competition coming and stuck £10 on the scoreline won back a tidy £845.50 - even accounting for the maximum five per cent commission - whereas Bet365 customers had to settle for £400, less than half that.
There were plenty of other games that Betfair offered the best odds for in the Europa League last night, including PAOK's potentially costly 1-1 draw at home to Group D bottom side Club Brugge. A tenner outlay on that result returned £77.90, compared to £50 with Ladbrokes and Stan James.
Want more? How about Villarreal's qualification-confirming 3-0 victory over Dinamo Zagreb in the same group? A £10 stake on that win margin netted Betfair backers a £99.75 profit, while those who placed their bets with Victor Chandler, Bwin and SportingBet were forced to glumly accept £70 as their reward.
Don't take our word for it though, why not test Betfair yourself using Betchecker?
