What “Away to Score 2 in a Row” Means
This bet means you’re wagering that the away team (the team playing away from home) will score two consecutive goals at any point in the match.
- It doesn’t have to be the first two goals of the game.
- The key is that no other team scores in between those two away goals.
- It can be goals 1 & 2, or goals 3 & 4, or goals 4 & 5, etc. — as long as the away team scores twice in a row.
Example with Realistic Teams
Let’s take a Manchester City (Home) vs Liverpool (Away) Premier League match:
Match Timeline Example:
- 15’ – Manchester City scores (1-0)
- 28’ – Liverpool scores (1-1)
- 42’ – Liverpool scores again (1-2)
At this point, Liverpool (the away team) has scored two consecutive goals (goal 2 & 3 of the match).
Your bet “Away to Score 2 in a Row” wins.
Another Scenario (Loses):
- 15’ – Liverpool scores (0-1)
- 25’ – Man City scores (1-1)
- 45’ – Liverpool scores (1-2)
Here, Liverpool scored, then City scored, then Liverpool scored again.
This is not two in a row because City’s goal broke the streak.
Things That Count
- Penalties scored by the away team count.
- Own goals credited to the away team also count.
- Penalties missed do not count unless the rebound is scored.
Typical Odds
Bookmakers usually offer higher odds for “Away to Score 2 in a Row” than for simple “Away Team to Score” markets because it’s harder to achieve. Odds can be anywhere from 3.0 to 6.0+ depending on the matchup.
Betting Tips
- Analyse Away Team’s Attack
- Look at recent games: does the away team often score multiple goals?
- Example: Bayern Munich away in the Bundesliga often scores 2+ goals consecutively.
- Check Home Team’s Defence
- A weak home defence increases the chance of the away team scoring twice in a row.
- Example: Liverpool playing away at a newly promoted side may be strong in attack, while the home team is weak defensively.
- Consider Game Context
- Knockout games or derbies are tighter. League games with open play often produce streaks.
- Look at Live Betting
- If the away team is pressing heavily and already scored once, in-play odds for a second consecutive goal might be good value.
- Avoid Heavy Favourites at Home
- If the home side is very dominant, the away team may not get two in a row.
