1 2 & GG
is a special football betting market that combines Match Result (1X2) with Both Teams To Score (GG) in a single bet.
In simple terms, you are predicting:
- Who will win the match (Home or Away)
AND - Both teams to score at least one goal.
This market is common in major leagues like the English Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, and the UEFA Champions League.
What Does 1 & GG Mean?
- 1 = Home team to win
- GG = Both Teams To Score (Yes)
So:
1 & GG = Home team wins + both teams score.
Winning score examples:
- 2–1
- 3–1
- 4–2
Losing score examples:
- 1–0 (Away team didn’t score)
- 0–1 (Home didn’t win)
- 2–2 (Home didn’t win)
What Does 2 & GG Mean?
- 2 = Away team to win
- GG = Both Teams To Score (Yes)
2 & GG = Away team wins + both teams score.
Winning score examples:
- 1–2
- 2–3
- 3–4
Losing score examples:
- 0–2 (Home didn’t score)
- 1–1 (Away didn’t win)
- 2–1 (Away didn’t win)
Why Bookmakers Offer This Market
This is a high-odds value market because two conditions must happen:
- Correct match winner
- Both teams must score
Because it’s harder to predict, odds are usually bigger than normal 1X2 or simple GG bets.
Practical Example
Let’s say:
Manchester United vs Tottenham
You pick: 1 & GG @ 3.50
If the match ends:
- 2–1 → You win
- 3–2 → You win
- 1–0 → You lose
- 2–2 → You lose
Betting Tips for 1 & 2 & GG
Look for Strong Attack vs Weak Defence
Pick teams that:
- Score regularly
- Concede regularly
Avoid Defensive Teams
Teams that win 1–0 frequently are risky for this market.
Check Head-to-Head (H2H)
If previous meetings often end:
- 2–1
- 3–1
- 2–2
Then GG is likely.
Avoid Mismatches
If a very strong team plays a very weak team, score may be:
- 3–0
- 4–0
Which kills the GG part.
When Is This Market Best?
Big matches
Derby games
Teams fighting for top positions
Leagues known for open attacking football
Risk Level
Medium to High Risk
Because you are combining two outcomes.
Better used for:
- Small stake
- Value hunting
- Accumulator booster
Final Advice
1 & 2 & GG can give big odds, but don’t chase losses.
Study team form, goal stats, and motivation before betting.
