Get £30 in free bets ahead of Uruguay vs Cape Verde – using bet365 bonus code ‘TSPORT’

Jun 21, 2026 - 08:15

Few would’ve expected all four teams in Group H to be locked on one point after matchday 1 but after Cape Verde’s heroics against Spain, and Uruguay’s disappointing display against Saudi Arabia, it is very much all to play for.

As Marcelo Bielsa’s team looks for an improved performance, and as Cape Verde aim to produce another major shock, you can grab £30 in free bets with bet365. That’s the offer available to anyone signing up to the bookie this weekend. Make sure to use our code ‘TSPORT’ when creating your account.

Following our link will automatically apply our bet365 bonus code ‘TSPORT‘. Please note that this code is optional and will not change the bonus amount in any way.

On another day, Cape Verde would’ve been hammered, but there’s no fun in talking about that! Instead, the World Cup debutants pulled off a fairytale result, thanks in large part to 40-year-old goalkeeper Vozinha, who simply refused to be beaten. His individual display will be talked about for years to come!

Uruguay were also frustrated by unfancied opposition, and needed an equaliser ten minutes from time to salvage a 1-1 draw with Saudi Arabia. They’ll be desperate to put that right here, and win by more goals than Spain – if the European champions do indeed beat the Saudis in their game – to set up a scenario where they only need to draw against the Iberians to win the group.

Score even more value with bet365

Use our link to head to bet365 and register as a new customer, then simply place an initial £10 wager on your chosen sports market with odds of at least 1/5 (1.20).

As soon as your qualifying wager settles, you’ll see the £30 in free bet credits arrive in your account – regardless of whether your bet won or lost.

Uruguay may need to be patient

While Uruguay once again have a number of players plying their trade at some of the biggest clubs around – such as Real Madrid’s Federico Valverde – they lack the cutting edge they once had with Luis Suárez and Edinson Cavani up top. Their main striking option is former Liverpool forward Darwin Núñez.

Cape Verde’s confidence will be sky high after shutting out Spain, and they will look to replicate their shape and structure here – making it difficult for the South Americans.
