What “1X2 from 1–55 Minutes” Means
- 1X2 = the classic “Home win / Draw / Away win” market.
- In the normal 1X2 market, you predict the result after full time.
- In a time-limited 1X2 market like 1–55 minutes, you’re betting on which team will be winning at the end of the 55th minute — counting from the 1st minute to the 55th minute only.
It’s basically like betting on a mini-match inside the match (kickoff to the 55th minute).
Any goals scored after the 55th minute don’t count for this market.
How the Bets Work
- 1 = Home team will be leading at the 55th minute.
- X = It will be a draw (scores level) at the 55th minute.
- 2 = Away team will be leading at the 55th minute.
Bookmakers might display it like this:
| Market | 1 | X | 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–55 min Result | 2.40 | 2.00 | 3.30 |
Here, if you pick 1, you’re saying: “At the 55th minute, the home team is ahead.”
Example with a Realistic Scenario
Let’s use Manchester City (Home) vs Tottenham (Away):
- Kickoff 0:00
- 1st minute to 55th minute only counts for your bet
Match Timeline:
- 10’ – Man City scores (1–0)
- 30’ – Man City scores again (2–0)
- 50’ – Tottenham scores (2–1)
- 60’ – Tottenham scores again (2–2)
Outcome at 55th minute = Man City 2–1 Tottenham
If you picked “1” (Home) = WIN (Man City leading at 55’).
If you picked “X” (Draw) = LOSE (not level at 55’).
If you picked “2” (Away) = LOSE (Tottenham not leading at 55’).
Even though the game ends 2–2 at full time, your 1–55 bet pays out based on what happened at the 55th minute.
Betting Tips for 1–55 Minute Markets
Tip 1: Study Early Goal Patterns
Some teams start very aggressively (Liverpool, Bayern, Man City). If they often lead by halftime, the “1” option in a 1–55 bet is attractive.
Tip 2: Live Betting Advantage
Watch the first 10–15 minutes live. If the away team is parking the bus and the home side is pressing hard, you can jump on the home win for 1–55 minutes while odds are still fair.
Tip 3: Draw Can Be Valuable
Many games are still level at 0–0 or 1–1 by the 55th minute. The X (draw) often carries higher value than it should.
Tip 4: Beware Slow Starters
Clubs like Real Madrid sometimes start slowly and grow into games after 60 minutes. In such cases, betting against them in 1–55 (X or 2) can pay.
Tip 5: Use Team News
If a favorite is resting key attackers or starting a defensive lineup, early goals might be less likely — making the draw or under markets more profitable.
Quick Strategy Table:
| Situation | Best Option |
|---|---|
| Home team very strong & fast starter | 1 (Home win at 55’) |
| Away team usually concedes late, not early | 1 or X |
| Both teams cagey, low-scoring first halves | X (Draw at 55’) |
| Underdog often scores early on counter | 2 (Away win at 55’) |
