What Does “W1 and Both Teams to Score – No” Mean?
This bet combines two outcomes into one:
- W1 → The home team wins the match.
- Both Teams to Score – No (BTTS – No) → At least one team does not score during the match.
To win this bet,
- The home team must win, and
- The away team must not score (so the scoreline could be 1–0, 2–0, 3–0, etc.).
If the away team scores, or if the match ends in a draw or an away win, you lose the bet.
Example with Real Teams
Let’s use an example:
Match:
Arsenal (Home) vs Everton (Away)
You place a bet on “W1 and Both Teams to Score – No.”
Now, possible outcomes:
| Final Score | Result | Bet Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Arsenal 2–0 Everton | Arsenal wins, Everton fails to score | Win |
| Arsenal 1–0 Everton | Arsenal wins, Everton fails to score | Win |
| Arsenal 3–1 Everton | Both teams scored | Lose |
| Arsenal 0–0 Everton | No winner (draw) | Lose |
| Arsenal 1–2 Everton | Away win | Lose |
So, your ticket only wins if Arsenal wins and keeps a clean sheet.
Example Explained with a Player
Imagine you are analyzing Manchester City at home and Erling Haaland is playing.
You expect Haaland to score and City to dominate.
- City are strong at home.
- Haaland usually scores, but City’s defense is also solid.
- You predict City to win 2–0.
This makes “W1 and Both Teams to Score – No” a smart choice — because you expect City to win and keep a clean sheet.
Betting Tips for “W1 and BTTS – No”
- Check Home Team Strength
- Pick teams that are strong at home and rarely concede goals.
- Example: Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, or Al Ahly in local leagues.
- Check the Away Team’s Scoring Form
- Avoid teams that score regularly even when they lose.
- Prefer teams that struggle to score away (e.g., newly promoted or defensive sides).
- Consider Goalkeeper & Defense
- If the home team’s defense or goalkeeper is strong (like Ederson or Alisson), the chance of a clean sheet increases.
- Avoid Derbies or Tight Matches
- Rivalry games often see goals from both sides. This bet works better in clear mismatch games (strong home vs weak away).
- Look at Recent Results
- Example:
- Arsenal’s last 5 home matches: 3 clean sheets
- Opponent (Everton) last 5 away matches: scored in only 1
Perfect condition for “W1 and BTTS – No.”
- Example:
- Don’t Combine Too Many
- This bet already has a good odd (often between 2.0–3.5), so use it as a single bet or small combo for safety.
