Weekend's Big Winning Bets

Another weekend of sport has been and gone and there was excitement and controversy in spades with Newcastle ending Arsenal's unbeaten run in the Premier League. 

In the Cricket World Cup there was an amazing performance from Pakistan, Novak Djokovic claimed his 40th Masters title in the Paris Masters and Max Verstappen won yet another F1 race.

Online betting punters saw plenty of potential profits and, as always, we look at some of the best bets and spread betting winners from the weekend.

With plenty more sport coming up this week, make sure you don't miss any of the action and keep an eye out for our pre-match and in-play price boosts on the website or our betting app, which you can download in the App Store or Google Play store.

Please remember Spread betting carries a high level of risk to your capital and can result in losses larger than your initial stake/deposit. They may not be suitable for everyone so please ensure you fully understand the risks involved.

DJOKOVIC V RUBLEV - TOTAL POINTS (SETTLED AT 231)

We start in Paris as world number one Novak Djokovic continued to assert his dominance at the top of men's tennis as he secured a 40th Masters title on Sunday, defeating Bulgaria's Grigor Dimitrov in the final.

In truth, the final itself was somewhat of a damp squib and concluded in two fairly comfortable straight sets for the Serb, but it was in some of his early matches in the tournaments where his main exertions took place - and where tennis betting punters made the most potential profit.

One such match was the very tight semi-final that Djokovic played against Andrey Rublev, which he won 5-7 7-6 7-5. For spread betting punters who decided to place a buy bet on the Total Points market in that one, a make-up of 231 from a starting pre-match spread of 143 - 148 meant a tidy return of 83x bettors’ initial stake!

HARRY KANE SMMs (DORTMUND v BAYERN) (SETTLED AT 423)

Football punters had another opportunity for significant profit in the German Bundesliga action where 'Der Klassiker' took place with Bayern Munich taking on arch-rivals Borussia Dortmund, with recent years being particularly painful for the Black & Yellows as Bayern showed their dominance.

It was ultimately a continuation of that particular trend this weekend as Bayern put on a masterclass to embarrass the hosts 4-0 - but the match was headlined by England captain Harry Kane who continued his incredible start to life in Germany by scoring a hat-trick.

For football spread betting punters, buying on Harry Kane's Super Mega Minutes spread proved majorly profitable. With a starting spread of 69 - 79, the final make-up of 423 meant a return of 344x punters' initial buy stake - back of the net!

NEW ZEALAND V PAKISTAN (CWC) - NEW ZEALAND/PAKISTAN RUN SUPREMACY (SETTLED AT -21)

And finally, we end with the 2023 Cricket World Cup action where cricket spread betting punters also made good profits from selling bets. Fakhar Zaman smashed a stunning 62-ball century as Pakistan beat New Zealand by 21 runs via the DLS method, with the rain meaning that the Black Caps suffered a fourth-straight World Cup defeat.

Pakistan's victory not only kept alive their hopes off qualifying for the semi-finals, but it also helped briefly prolonged England's tournament until their later 33-run defeat to Australia officially ended their miserable title defence with two games to spare.

For spread betting punters that had the foresight to sell on the Run Supremacy market, this proved a savvy choice. With a pre-match spread at 1 - 11, the make-up of -21 meant a profit return of 22x bettors' opening sell stake.
