Let’s break down 1st Half – Multigoals in football sports betting in a clear and practical way with examples and betting tips.
What is 1st Half – Multigoals Betting?
This market lets you bet on how many goals will be scored in the first half of a football match, but instead of exact totals, it gives you a range (multi-goal option).
For example:
- 1st Half Multigoals 1-2 → You win if the 1st half ends with exactly 1 or 2 goals.
- 1st Half Multigoals 2-3 → You win if the 1st half ends with exactly 2 or 3 goals.
- 1st Half Multigoals 0-1 → You win if the 1st half ends with either 0 or 1 goal.
It’s like a hybrid between Over/Under and Exact Goals, giving you a safer range.
Examples
Example Match:
Liverpool VS Chelsea
- 0-1 Goals → Odds 1.80
- 1-2 Goals → Odds 2.00
- 2-3 Goals → Odds 3.10
- 3-4 Goals → Odds 5.00
Available Markets (1st Half – Multigoals):
Scenario 1:
Halftime score = Liverpool 1–1 Chelsea (2 goals).
- 1- 2goals wins
- 2-3 goals wins
- 0-1 goals loses
- 3-4 goals loses
Scenario 2:
Halftime score = Liverpool 0–0 Chelsea (0 goals).
- 0-1 goals wins
- All others lose
Why Bettors Like It
- More flexibility than betting on just Over/Under.
- Safer than predicting an exact number of goals.
- Good for first-half specialists, where many games follow patterns.
Betting Tips
- Check Team Trends
- Some teams are “fast starters” (e.g., Manchester City, PSG, Bayern often score early).
- Others are slow, tactical, with fewer 1st-half goals (e.g., Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan).
- League Patterns
- German Bundesliga → high 1st-half scoring (often 2+ goals).
- Italian Serie A → usually tighter 1st halves (0-1 or 1-2 common).
- Head-to-Head (H2H)
- If two rivals meet, expect either cautious (0-1) or chaotic (2-3+) 1st halves.
- Live Betting Strategy
- If the first 10–15 minutes are very open with multiple shots, 2-3 first-half multigoals is often value.
- If the game looks cagey, 0-1 is safer.
Smart Example Bet:
Arsenal VS Tottenham (North London Derby)
- History: Both teams usually score early.
- Bet: 1st Half Multigoals 1-2 (covers both a cautious start and an open one).
