“1X2 from 1 to 25 Minute” in football Sports Betting – Explained with Examples + Betting Tips


What “1X2 from 1 to 25 Minute”  Means

  • 1X2 = Classic match result bet
    • 1 = Home team leads/wins
    • X = Draw
    • 2 = Away team leads/wins
  • From 1 to 25 Minutes = The outcome of the match at the 25th minute mark, not full-time.
    You’re betting on which team will be leading (or if it’s a draw) at the 25th minute.

This is like a “mini-match” covering just the first 25 minutes.


How It Works

Example:

  • Match: Manchester City (Home) vs Brentford (Away)
  • Market: 1X2 – 1 to 25 min

Bookmaker odds:

  • 1 (Man City leading at 25’) – 1.90
  • X (Draw at 25’) – 2.50
  • 2 (Brentford leading at 25’) – 6.00

Your bet is settled at the 25:00 minute mark:

  • If Man City is leading 1–0 or 2–0 at 25’, bet on 1 wins.
  • If the score is 0–0 or 1–1 at 25’, bet on X wins.
  • If Brentford is ahead at 25’, bet on 2 wins.

It doesn’t matter what happens after the 25th minute.


Detailed Example

Let’s say you bet ₦5,000 on “1” (Man City to lead at 25’ at 1.90 odds).

Scenario at 25’:

  • Man City 1–0 Brentford at 25’: Win → ₦5,000 × 1.90 = ₦9,500 payout.
  • Score 0–0 at 25’: Lose.
  • Brentford 0–1 at 25’: Lose.

You’re only concerned about the score at exactly 25:00 minutes.


When to Use This Market

  • If you think a strong favorite starts games quickly.
  • If a weaker team often concedes early.
  • If you expect a slow start → bet on X (Draw at 25’).

Team-Based Example

Liverpool vs Luton
Liverpool are famous for pressing high and scoring early at Anfield.

  • Last 5 home games: Scored in first 20 minutes in 4 of them.

Odds for “1X2 at 25’”:

  • 1: 1.60
  • X: 2.80
  • 2: 8.00

Because Liverpool are quick starters, betting on 1 (Liverpool leading at 25’) has a higher chance.


Betting Tips

Check First-Half Stats

  • Look at average goals scored/conceded in first 15–30 minutes.
  • Sites like FlashScore or SofaScore show “Goals in first 30 mins”.

Favorite at Home

  • Big clubs (Man City, Real Madrid, Bayern) at home often dominate early → “1” value.

Slow Teams = Draw

  • Some teams start slowly but dominate later → “X” may be more profitable.

Head-to-Head Trends

  • If last 4 meetings were 0–0 at 25’, maybe bet “X”.

Live Betting Option

  • Watch first 5 minutes: If home team looks aggressive, jump on “1” live before odds drop.
