1. Over/Under Betting (O/U)
This market focuses on the total number of goals scored in a match by both teams combined (not which team scores).
- Over 2.5 Goals → The match must have 3 or more goals. Example: 2-1, 3-0, 2-2, 4-1 all win.
- Under 2.5 Goals → The match must have 2 or fewer goals. Example: 0-0, 1-0, 1-1, 2-0 win.
Example with Manchester City vs Chelsea
- If you bet Over 2.5 goals and the game ends Man City 3–1 Chelsea, your bet wins (4 total goals).
- If you bet Under 2.5 goals and the game ends Man City 1–0 Chelsea, your bet wins (1 total goal).
2. GG/NG (Both Teams to Score Market)
This bet predicts if both teams will score or not during the match.
- GG (Yes) → Both teams score at least once. Example: 1-1, 2-1, 3-2.
- NG (No) → At least one team fails to score. Example: 2-0, 0-0, 3-0.
Example with Arsenal vs Tottenham
- If you bet GG and the game ends Arsenal 2–2 Tottenham, your bet wins (both scored).
- If you bet NG and the game ends Arsenal 3–0 Tottenham, your bet wins (Spurs didn’t score).
3. Combining O/U with GG/NG
Some bookies allow you to combine these two for better odds.
- GG + Over 2.5 → Both teams must score and at least 3 goals in the match.
- Example: Liverpool 2–1 Newcastle Wins.
- NG + Under 2.5 → At least one team doesn’t score, and max 2 goals total.
- Example: Barcelona 2–0 Sevilla Wins.
4. Betting Tips
Here’s how to approach them smartly:
Over/Under tips
- Look at teams’ scoring and defensive stats.
- Example: Man City often goes Over 2.5 because they attack a lot. Teams like Atlético Madrid often go Under 2.5 due to defensive play.
GG/NG tips
- GG is common in derbies or attacking teams (like Arsenal vs Spurs).
- NG is common when a big team faces a weak team (like Bayern vs Bochum).
Combination tip
- If both teams are strong offensively → GG + Over 2.5 is a solid pick.
- If one team is very defensive or much stronger → NG + Under 2.5 works better.
