What Does Excluded Number of Goals – Away Mean?
This market allows you to bet on the away team’s total goals, but with one specific number excluded.
- You are saying: “The away team will score any number of goals except this excluded number.”
- If the away team finishes the match with the excluded number of goals, your bet loses.
It’s similar to “Goals – Except X” betting.
Example with Teams
Let’s say the match is:
Manchester City (Home) vs. Real Madrid (Away)
Market: Excluded Number of Goals – Away (2)
- If you bet “Away Excluded 2 Goals” → you are betting that Real Madrid will score 0, 1, 3, 4, or more goals.
- The only way you lose is if Real Madrid scores exactly 2 goals.
Possible Outcomes:
- Final Score: Man City 2–0 Real Madrid → Away scored 0 → Bet Wins
- Final Score: Man City 2–1 Real Madrid → Away scored 1 → Bet Wins
- Final Score: Man City 1–2 Real Madrid → Away scored 2 → Bet Loses
- Final Score: Man City 2–3 Real Madrid → Away scored 3 → Bet Wins
Why Bettors Use This Market
- It helps avoid common scoring numbers.
- Example: Many away teams frequently finish with 1 or 2 goals, so you can exclude these to improve odds.
- Odds are usually higher than normal “Over/Under” betting because you’re removing one exact option.
Betting Tips
- Research Team Scoring Trends
- If the away team often scores 2 goals per match (like Liverpool in the Premier League), avoid excluding 2.
- Instead, maybe exclude 0 or 1.
- Use Against Defensive Teams
- If the home side defends well, the away team may only score 0 or 1 → so excluding 2 or 3 is safer.
- Good for Underdog Matches
- When a weaker away team plays a strong home side, they often score 0 or 1 goal max. Excluding 2 can give value.
- Check Recent Away Form
- For example, if Bayern Munich away from home often scores 3+, excluding 1 or 2 goals is smarter.
Practical Example Bet
Match: Arsenal vs. Bayern Munich
Market: Excluded Number of Goals – Away (1)
- You bet: “Bayern will score any number of goals EXCEPT exactly 1.”
- If Bayern scores 0, 2, 3, 4+ → Win
- If Bayern scores exactly 1 → Lose
In short: Excluded Number of Goals – Away is betting that the away team will not finish on a specific exact goal tally, making it a flexible alternative to standard over/under markets.
