What does “No Draw Both Teams to Score” mean?
This is a combined market that removes the draw option and ties it with the BTTS (Both Teams to Score) market. You are basically betting on:
- Which team wins (Home or Away) — Draw is eliminated.
- Whether both teams will score (Yes/No).
So you have 4 possible betting outcomes:
- Home Win + BTTS Yes
- Home Win + BTTS No
- Away Win + BTTS Yes
- Away Win + BTTS No
Important: If the match ends in a draw, your bet automatically loses, regardless of the BTTS outcome.
Example with Club Teams
Let’s take a Premier League fixture:
Arsenal vs Manchester United at the Emirates.
- Option 1: Arsenal to Win + BTTS Yes
Prediction: Arsenal wins 2–1 or 3–2. Arsenal wins, but United still scores. - Option 2: Arsenal to Win + BTTS No
Prediction: Arsenal wins 1–0 or 2–0. United fails to score. - Option 3: Man United to Win + BTTS Yes
Prediction: United wins 1–2 or 2–3. Arsenal scores, but United edges it. - Option 4: Man United to Win + BTTS No
Prediction: United wins 0–1 or 0–2. Arsenal doesn’t score.
If the match ends 2–2 or 0–0, your bet loses because a draw isn’t allowed.
Another Example
Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid
- Barça Win + BTTS Yes → 3–1, 2–1
- Barça Win + BTTS No → 2–0, 1–0
- Atletico Win + BTTS Yes → 1–2, 2–3
- Atletico Win + BTTS No → 0–1, 0–2
If it ends 1–1 → Bet loses, because it’s a draw.
Betting Tips
- Use for big attacking teams with weak defenses
- Example: Tottenham, Borussia Dortmund, PSG often see goals at both ends.
- Best for Win + BTTS Yes markets.
- Use for defensive teams when clean sheets are common
- Example: Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan.
- Best for Win + BTTS No markets.
- Avoid evenly matched derbies
- High chance of a draw (e.g., Chelsea vs Arsenal, AC Milan vs Inter).
- Check Head-to-Head stats
- If past meetings often end in draws, this market is risky.
- If one side dominates historically, this bet has higher value.
- Live Betting Angle
- If the underdog scores first, odds on “favorite to Win + BTTS Yes” become very good in-play.
In short:
- This bet eliminates the draw and forces you to pick a winner + BTTS outcome.
- High-value in matches where one side is clearly stronger, but the other side is capable of scoring.
