“Goal in Numerical Advantage” in sports betting refers to a bet placed on a goal being scored while one team has more players on the pitch than the other, usually due to a red card.
What it Means:
- A numerical advantage happens when a player from one team is sent off (red card), so the team plays with fewer players.
- The bet wins if a goal is scored by the team with more players during that time.
Example :
- In a soccer match:
- Team A gets a red card in the 60th minute.
- Now Team B has 11 players vs. 10.
- If Team B scores a goal while the red card is still in effect (before the game ends), the “Goal in Numerical Advantage” bet wins.
Important Notes:
- The timing of the goal must be after the numerical advantage starts.
- If no goal is scored while the advantage exists, or the team with fewer players scores, the bet loses.
- Sometimes this market is listed as:
- “Goal While in Numerical Advantage”
- “Goal Against a Shorthanded Team”
