Derby delight Betfair correct score backers
Betfair bettors who have been backing 2-0 away wins in the Championship this season - there've been ten in total already - struck gold last night thanks to the exploits of Derby at Ipswich and Middlesbrough at Scunthorpe, two teams we predicted would do well in our preview.
Anyone who stuck a tenner on the Rams being 2-0 victors at Portman Road on Betfair would have received £237.50 back, even accounting for the maximum five per cent commission. Ladbrokes customers were forced to settle for less than half of that - £110.
There was a similarly large gap between Betfair and the competition at Glanford Park as Tony Mowbray guided Middlesbrough to their first travelling triumph of the campaign and out of the relegation zone. Betfair punters won £152 for a £10 outlay, while Ladbrokes customers received only £80.
In the Premier League, there was money to be made punting on Tottenham's clash with Sunderland being a draw, as a £10 wager on the points being shared paid out £33.25, whereas Ladbrokes dished out just £27.50. Those who stuck the same amount on the score would have earned £79.80, compared to £60 with Stan James.
Don't take our word for it though, why not test Betfair yourself using Betchecker?
