Meaning of “2X and Both Teams To Score – No”
This is a combined (double) bet that joins two conditions:
- 2X → The away team (Team 2)wins or draws the match.
- So, if Team 2 wins or draws, this part wins.
- If the home team (Team 1) wins, this part loses.
- Both Teams To Score – No (BTTS – No) → It means both teams will NOT score.
- Only one team (or none) must score.
- If both teams score, this part loses.
For your bet to win, both conditions must happen:
- The away team wins or draws, AND
- At least one team fails to score (BTTS – No).
How It Works (Step-by-Step Example)
Let’s say you bet on:
Bet option: “2X and Both Teams To Score – No”
Match: Chelsea Vs Manchester United
You choose: Manchester United (2X)
Possible Outcomes:
| Result | Outcome | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Chelsea 0–1 Man Utd | Win | Man Utd won (2X ) and Chelsea didn’t score (BTTS – No ) |
| Chelsea 1–1 Man Utd | Lose | 2X (draw), but both scored (BTTS – No ) |
| Chelsea 0–0 Man Utd | Win | Draw (2X ) and both didn’t score (BTTS – No ) |
| Chelsea 2–0 Man Utd | Lose | Man Utd lost (2X ) |
| Chelsea 2–1 Man Utd | Lose | 2X and BTTS |
Winning examples:
- Away team wins 0–1, 0–2
- Match ends 0–0
Losing examples:
- 1–1 (because both scored)
- 2–0 (because away team lost)
Player Perspective Example
Let’s imagine Marcus Rashford (Manchester United forward) is expected to play against Chelsea.
- Rashford is in great form, but Chelsea’s defense has been solid at home.
- You expect Manchester United to avoid defeat (they might win or draw).
- You also think it will be a tight defensive match, where Chelsea might not score.
So you place:
Bet: “2X and Both Teams To Score – No” on Manchester United.
If the game ends 0–1 (Rashford scores the winner), your bet wins perfectly.
Betting Tips for “2X and BTTS – No”
- Check defensive stats – Choose teams with strong defense or who play for a draw away from home.
- Example: Teams like Inter Milan, Atletico Madrid, or Manchester City away.
- Avoid open, attacking matches – Leagues or teams known for high scoring (like Bundesliga) are risky.
- Look for low-scoring trends – Games with Under 2.5 Goals odds being low often fit “BTTS – No”.
- Use for underdogs with solid defense – When a weaker away team tends to hold big teams to draws or wins by 1–0.
- Ideal for cup games or tight fixtures – Especially when both teams play cautiously (e.g., Champions League knockout).
- Check team news – If one side’s key striker is injured, BTTS – No becomes more likely.
Example Betting Scenario
- Fixture: Burnley vs. Liverpool
- Prediction: Liverpool not to lose, Burnley might fail to score.
- Bet: “2X and Both Teams To Score – No” on Liverpool.
- Result: Burnley 0–2 Liverpool (Win)
Summary Table
| Bet Type | Meaning | Winning Result Example |
|---|---|---|
| 2X | Away team wins or draws | 0–0, 1–2 |
| BTTS – No | At least one team fails to score | 0–0, 0–1 |
| Combined: 2X & BTTS – No | Away team wins or draws + Both don’t score | 0–0, 0–1, 0–2 |
Final Tip:
This bet is ideal when you trust the away team not to lose, but also believe it won’t be a goal fest. It’s safer than a straight win and offers better odds than “Double Chance” alone.
