”1X2 from 1–65 Minute” In Football Sports Betting – Explained with Examples + Betting Tips


What “1X2 from 1–65 Minute” Means

This is a time-specific version of the classic 1X2 (Match Result) bet.

  • Normal 1X2 bets cover the full 90 minutes + added time.
  • This market covers only what happens from the 1st minute to the 65th minute.

Essentially, you’re betting on which team will be winning at the 65th minute (or if it’s a draw) — regardless of what happens after 65 minutes.

Your options:

  • 1 = Home team is ahead at 65′
  • X = The score is level at 65′
  • 2 = Away team is ahead at 65′

It’s sometimes called “result after X minutes” or “partial time 1X2”.


Example with Real Teams

Imagine a Premier League match: Liverpool (Home) vs Chelsea (Away)

Current form:

  • Liverpool starts very strongly at Anfield, often scoring early.
  • Chelsea tends to be more defensive first half, opening up later.

A sportsbook offers:

Bet TypeOdds
Liverpool (1)2.00
Draw (X)2.50
Chelsea (2)4.50

These odds apply only for the scoreline at 65 minutes.

Scenario 1:

  • At 65′: Liverpool 2 – 0 Chelsea
  • Bet outcome: Liverpool (1) wins

Scenario 2:

  • At 65′: Liverpool 1 – 1 Chelsea
  • Bet outcome: Draw (X) wins

Scenario 3:

  • At 65′: Liverpool 0 – 1 Chelsea
  • Bet outcome: Chelsea (2) wins

If Liverpool scores twice after 70 minutes and wins 3-1 full time — it doesn’t matter.
Your bet was locked at 65 minutes.


Why Bettors Use It

  • Focuses on early dominance or slow starters.
  • Reduces exposure to late goals (e.g., 80–90’ equalizers).
  • Useful if you’ve researched first-hour performances.

Betting Tips

1. Check “First-Hour” Stats

  • Look at how both teams perform up to 60/65 minutes.
  • Some sides (like Liverpool at home) score early. Others (like Chelsea away) hold 0-0 until later.

2. Injuries & Lineups Matter

  • A weakened starting lineup may concede early.
  • If the home team starts with a backup striker, they may struggle to score before 65’.

3. Live Betting Advantage

  • You can place this bet in-play during the match.
  • If at 20’ the home team is already dominating but odds still attractive, it can be a strong value bet.

4. Weather & Game Context

  • Hot conditions or cup matches may mean slower starts.
  • If a team needs only a draw to advance, they may play defensively early.

5. Combine with “First Goal Timing”

If you expect an early goal, “1X2 up to 65’” plus “First goal before 30’” can be combined for higher returns.


Practical Example Tip

Suppose you research:

  • In Liverpool’s last 10 home games, they led at 65’ in 8 of them.
  • Chelsea trailed in 6 of their last 10 away matches at 65’.

Your bet: Liverpool (1) 1X2 from 1–65 minutes at odds 2.00
Stake $50 → Return $100 if winning.

This is a data-driven approach rather than guessing.
