Three other great Betfair promotions

The welcome bonus isn't the only promotion offered by Betfair. It's reserved for new customers, but many deals and offers are available to both new and existing players. You'll find a list of these on the Betfair promotions page. Below are our three favourites.

Odds boost

The Betfair traders boost the odds of one popular team or player per game. It's often the favourite, and the boost is enough to ensure Betfair is offering the market's best price, thus overshadowing the competition. If you're backing the favourite, you'd be wise to do it at Betfair's enhanced odds.

Profit boost

This promotion may seem similar to the one above, but it applies to World Cup accumulators. The more winning selections in your acca, the higher the boost. For example, if you place a five-team winning acca, your returns may be boosted by 10 per cent, but if you place a nine-team acca, your profits may be boosted by 80 per cent.

Enhanced each-way

This promo works best on an outright market, such as to win the World Cup. But we advise that you use it for player betting at this stage of the competition. Look for enhanced each-way terms on the top goalscorer market or player of the tournament betting. More places mean more chances to bag a return.

Use your Betfair bonus on Croatia v Brazil

Friday, 3pm

Friday offers the perfect opportunity to use your as Croatia and Brazil meet in the first of Friday's two quarter-finals, and the Samba Boys head into this match with confidence. They are the current World Cup betting favourites and have never suffered a defeat to Croatia in four previous meetings. The head-to-head stats show three wins for Brazil and one draw.

The sides last met in 2018 when Brazil eased to a 2-0 victory thanks to goals from Neymar and Firmino, both strikes coming in the second half. All but one of the games have been low-scoring affairs, with three meetings producing no more than two goals. That suggests we could be in for another hard-fought contest and under 2.5 goals will be popular.

Croatia have failed to find the net in two of their last three against Brazil, and they managed just one in a round-of-16 win over Japan on Monday. Brazil have already kept clean sheets against Switzerland and Serbia.
