ROYAL CHALLENGERS BANGALORE v CHENNAI SUPER KINGS – SIXES SQUARED (SETTLED AT 1089)

On Monday afternoon two powerhouses of the IPL went head-to-head as Royal Challengers Bangalore hosted the Chennai Super Kings at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.

Chennai were put into bat first and posted a massive score of 226/6 with New Zealand International Devon Conway high scoring with 83 off just 45 deliveries to help put the away side in a commanding position at the halfway stage.

Bangalore had an uphill challenge ahead of themselves and got off to an awful start losing both of their openers for a combined six runs before Glenn Maxwell and Faf Du Plessis entered the crease scoring a combined 138 off just 69 deliveries. However, the pair's heroics were still not enough as Bangalore fell just eight runs short of Chennai’s total.

With both sides hitting a combined 33 maximums the Sixes Squared market made up at a massive 1089. With a pre-match spread of 346-398 offered, punters who decided to buy won 691x their stake!

LEEDS UNITED v LIVERPOOL – GOALS X SHIRTS (SETTLED AT 910)

Next, we head to Elland Road where Leeds hosted Liverpool with the hosts needing to pick up points in their hope for survival while the visitors were looking to close the gap on European places.

The visitors put themselves in a strong position at half time leading Leeds 2-0 through goals from Cody Gakpo and Mohammed Salah on the 35th and 39th-minute mark. Leeds did fight back early in the second half as Luis Sinisterra robbed the ball of Ibrahima Konate however, just five minutes later Diogo Jota restored Liverpool’s two-goal lead from a lightning counter.

Liverpool then added insult to injury by putting another three goals past the helpless Islian Meslier meaning Leeds have now conceded 11 goals in their last two fixtures.

With there being seven goals in the game and the goalscorer's shirt numbers equalling 130 the Goals X Shirts market made up at a massive 910. With a pre-match spread of 193-218 offered, punters who decided to buy won 692x their stake!

CHELSEA v REAL MADRID – RODRYGO SUPER MEGA MINUTES ( SETTLED AT 218)

Finally, we head to Stamford Bridge as Chelsea faced the challenge of overturning a 2-0 deficit against 14-time Champions League winners Real Madrid.

Although Chelsea were major underdogs in the tie the Blues came out fast and had a few big chances which went begging with Ngolo Kante missing the pick of the chances.

Real Madrid in the second half showed why they are 14-time winners and reigning champions as Rodrygo put the game to bed in the 58th minute. The young Brazilian then doubled his and Real Madrid’s tally scoring in the 80th minute to round off a dominant victory for the Spaniards over the two ties.

But where was the value for the punters?

With Rodrygo, who only has five goals in the league for Madrid this season, scoring two goals in the second half his Super Mega Minutes made up at 218. With a pre-match spread of 10-14 offered, punters who decided to buy won 204x their stake!

Please note that these are examples of winning bets from the past week, and it is important to remember that spread betting carries a high level of risk to your capital and can result in losses larger than your initial stake/deposit.
