Betfred promo code & £50 in free bets for Basel vs Aston Villa

Dec 10, 2025 - 15:15

Aston Villa’s European adventure heads to Switzerland this Thursday as Unai Emery’s side face FC Basel at St. Jakob-Park.

With their hopes of securing a top-eight finish in the Europa Conference League very much alive, Villa will be determined to build on their strong domestic form with a positive result on the road.

As the tension mounts, Betfred is enhancing the occasion for new customers with a superb welcome offer. Use the promo code BETFRED50 when you join, and you can unlock £50 in free bets from a qualifying £10 wager.

Villa travel as favourites, boasting the Premier League pedigree and attacking talent to trouble any defence. However, a trip to Basel is never straightforward. The Swiss side are notoriously solid at home and will look to frustrate Villa’s rhythm. The key battle may be in midfield, where Villa’s creators must find space to supply the forward line.

Please note: The following are suggested betting markets for consideration. Always make your own informed decisions before placing any wager.
