October is where the fixture list stops being polite. An international window opens the month, and once it clears there are four Premier League matchweeks back to back with no break in them. If you plan to register with Bet9ja in October, the code you want is YOHAIG.

What you get for entering the code

There is a promo field on the Bet9ja sign-up form, and plenty of new users leave it blank. Enter YOHAIG in that box and your new account qualifies for a welcome bonus of up to ₦100,000, scaled to your opening deposit. The code cannot be added afterwards, so the field only works on the way in.

The code costs nothing to use. It applies to new accounts only, and the bonus carries rollover conditions like every welcome offer in the Nigerian market. Look at the conditions first so the bonus behaves the way you expect.

Register with promotion code YOHAIG and claim up to ₦100,000 as a welcome bonus.

The Super Eagles close the international window

The UEFA Nations League runs its third and fourth rounds between the 1st and the 6th of October, so the opening week is international football only. Nigeria travel to the Nizhny Novgorod Stadium to face Russia in a friendly on Tuesday 6 October. The kick-off time was still unannounced when this went up, so confirm it before you stake.

What the Premier League gives you this month

The clubs are back from Saturday 10 October. Arsenal versus Leeds United opens it at lunchtime, Manchester United take on Tottenham Hotspur later that day, and Liverpool host Manchester City at Anfield on the Sunday. A week later you get Everton versus Chelsea, Newcastle United against Aston Villa, and Nottingham Forest hosting Arsenal on Sunday evening.

Friday 23 October opens the next round with Ipswich Town against Nottingham Forest, and Chelsea versus Tottenham Hotspur headlines the Saturday. The final Saturday, 31 October, opens with Chelsea against Manchester United and ends with Aston Villa versus Fulham.

One thing hanging over the month: Manchester City have reportedly been found guilty on almost all of the 115 charges brought against them. What the punishment looks like was still unknown at the time of writing. If anything lands mid-season it moves the title and relegation markets hard, so watch the news before you touch a long-range bet.

A timing note worth more than most tips

British clocks go back on Sunday 25 October and Nigeria does not move. Up to Saturday the 24th, a kick-off listed in UK time is the same clock time in Lagos. From the 25th onward, add an hour: a match listed at 15:00 in England starts at 16:00 in Nigeria.

Practical notes for October

• 
  
• Enter the code at registration, not after. The code only applies to a new account.
  
• Decide what the whole month costs you before 10 October. A month with no pause in it is where discipline slips.
  

Before you register

Bonus terms in this market move, so it pays to read the live page rather than trust a screenshot from three months ago. You can read the bet9ja promotion code details on bet9japromotioncode.com.ng, with the welcome bonus conditions set out in full.

A Super Eagles trip to Russia, Liverpool versus Manchester City at Anfield and four straight matchweeks make for a full month. Whatever your coupon looks like, keep it inside a number you decided on beforehand.
