What would you expect to get (roughly) over the season if you put £100 on City to WIN every home game in the season.Just a thought.
 
considering we're always gunna be odds on I can't see how it'd be worth it, just going off us being 1/2 you'd win £50 per game but we're more likely to be 1/5 getting you a £20 win off a £100 bet. The price's on City are shite, I was going to back us to win the Champs league with a free bet I had but at 15/2 best price (third favourites FFS!!) I don't think there is any value in backing us ATM.

going off this http://www.betcalc.com/accacalc.php you'd get around £800 back over a ten game accumulator at an average 1/4 per game
 
If we were, on average 1/2 for each home game you could turn £100 into almost £74,000 - if you put the accumulative winnings on each game.

At 1/5 it would just be £1,400
 
If you were to win all 18 home games next season, then hypothetically stick United, Arsenal & Chelsea at 1/2, Spuds & Liverpool at 1/3 then the rest at say 1/5, you'd win:

£100 x3 @ 1/2 means £50 x3 winnings = £150 (+£300 stake back)
£100 x2 @ 1/3 means £33 x2 winnings = £66 (+£200 stake back)
£100 x13 @ 1/5 means £20 x13 winnings = £260 (+£1300 stake back)

You're overall winnings would be around £470. Not that much when you consider you have staked £1800 on over the season. Then again, the likeliness of City failing to win on 4 occasions at home isn't high, so if you have the cash, it might not be too bad an idea.

I wouldn't do it though.

Edit - Didn't think you meant putting accumulative winnings on each match. Obviously the potential winnings that way is much higher, however the potential loss would be equally disappointing.

19 home league games - putting accumulative winnings on each game your potential loss is only ever £100 - putting £100 on each game and your potential losses are £1,900 - betting accumulative winnings is less risky.
 
What are the odds for City to not drop a single point at home next year?

19 straight winners can't be bad odds, surely?

I'm crap at betting. Which is dodgy considering that I built a betting site a few years back.

Cheers for that,so in probality you could be looking at nearly £500 up over the season !!! ,to me that would be a good bet. Or in other way, city to lose or draw 5 games at home all season to break even.

Can't find anything on the exchanges for not dropping a home point,but the best price to be unbeaten at home is 18/1,which is pretty poor,and we are 66/1 to go unbeaten in the Premiership all season.
