Placing risk-free bets
Since Coteur allows you to compare odds, you will sometimes find considerable differences between bookmakers So, if I look at the odds today, I find this match:

The principle is thus to bet on the 3 results while finding the ideal wager to avoid losing money.
Here's the calculation:
If Sochaux wins, the odds are 2.30, so I divide 1 by 2.30 and obtain 0.434
For a draw the same: 1/3.40 = 0.294
If Le mans wins: 1/4.00 = 0.25
So If I wager €43.4 on Sochaux at 2.20, €29.4 on a draw at 3.40, and €25 on Le Mans winning at 4.00
I've wagered: €97.8
First case, Sochaux wins:
I wagered €43.4 at 2.20, so I win €99.82
Second case, a draw:
I wagered €29.5 at 3.40, so I win 100.3
Third case Le Mans wins
I laid out €25 at 4.00, so I win 100
Here the profit is extremely low, but sometimes it's a lot more rewarding.
