1. Understanding “12 and Both Teams To Score – Yes”
- “12” (also called Double Chance 12):
This means you are betting that either Team 1 wins or Team 2 wins. In other words, the match will not end in a draw. - “Both Teams To Score – Yes” (BTTS Yes):
This means you are betting that both teams will score at least one goal during the match.
So, combining “12 + BTTS Yes”:
You are predicting:
- The match will not end in a draw (either team wins).
- Both teams will score at least once.
This is a more specific bet than just 12 or BTTS alone, which makes it slightly higher in odds.
2. Example Using a Team Scenario
Teams: Liverpool vs Arsenal
Scenario:
- Liverpool is strong at home and scores a lot of goals.
- Arsenal has a strong attack and is likely to score, even away.
- Recent matches between them show both teams usually score, and the draw is rare.
Bet: 12 + BTTS Yes
- Winning cases:
- Liverpool 2-1 Arsenal (Liverpool wins, both teams scored)
- Arsenal 3-2 Liverpool (Arsenal wins, both teams scored)
- Losing cases:
- Liverpool 0-0 Arsenal (Draw, no goals)
- Liverpool 2-2 Arsenal (Draw, both scored but draw makes 12 part lose)
- Liverpool 1-0 Arsenal (Liverpool wins but Arsenal didn’t score)
Notice: For your bet to win, both parts must happen: no draw, and both teams score.
3. Betting Tips
- Look at team scoring stats:
- Check if both teams consistently score in recent matches (BTTS Yes).
- Avoid low-scoring teams:
- If one team often fails to score, BTTS Yes is risky.
- Check head-to-head records:
- If matches often end in draws, 12 part may fail.
- Consider attacking strength:
- Teams with strong forwards and weaker defenses are ideal for 12 + BTTS Yes.
- Check team form & lineup news:
- Missing key attackers or goalkeepers can affect outcomes.
4. Example Odds
Suppose:
- 12 odds: 1.40
- BTTS Yes odds: 1.60
- Combined 12 + BTTS Yes: 2.20–2.50
The odds are higher because you need both conditions to occur, making it riskier than a simple 12 or BTTS bet.
