2 (0:3) in Football Betting

2 (0:3) is a football betting market known as a 3-goal handicap away win. In this market, the away team starts the match with a virtual 3-goal advantage.

Your bet wins if, after adding the 3-goal handicap to the away team, the away team is still leading.

How 2 (0:3) Works

• 2 = Away team to win after handicap.
• 0:3 = Away team is given 3 goals before kickoff.

This means your bet wins if the home team fails to win by 4 or more goals.

Winning Scores for 2 (0:3)

Your bet wins if the actual result is:

• Home team wins by 1 goal
• Home team wins by 2 goals
• Home team wins by exactly 2 goals
• Match ends in a draw
• Away team wins

Example Winning Scores

• 1-0 (Handicap score: 1-3)
• 2-0 (Handicap score: 2-3)
• 3-1 (Handicap score: 3-4)
• 0-0
• 1-1
• 0-2

Losing Scores for 2 (0:3)

Your bet loses only if the home team wins by 4 goals or more.

Examples:

• 4-0 (Handicap score: 4-3)
• 5-0
• 6-1

Push Situation

If the home team wins by exactly 3 goals, the handicap result becomes a draw, so the selection X (0:3) wins, not 2 (0:3).

Examples:

• 3-0
• 4-1
• 5-2

Example

Match: Paris Saint-Germain FC vs Angers SCO

If the match ends 2-0:

• Handicap score: 2-3
• Away team wins after handicap
• Bet wins

If the match ends 4-0:

• Handicap score: 4-3
• Home team wins after handicap
• Bet loses
