1X & NG
is a combo market in football betting. It combines:
- 1X (Double Chance) → Home team wins OR match ends in a draw
- NG (No Goal) → Both Teams NOT to Score (at least one team fails to score)
So when you play 1X & NG, you are betting that:
The home team will not lose AND one of the teams will fail to score.
Both conditions must happen for your bet to win.
What Does 1X Mean?
1X is a Double Chance market:
- 1 = Home win
- X = Draw
So 1X covers:
- Home win
- Draw
- Away win (loses)
What Does NG Mean?
NG means No Goal (Both Teams Not To Score).
This wins if:
- Only one team scores
- Or the match ends 0–0
It loses if:
- Both teams score (e.g., 1-1, 2-1, 3-2)
How 1X & NG Works Together
To win:
- The home team must not lose
- At least one team must fail to score
Winning Examples
Example 1:
Match: Chelsea F.C. vs Burnley F.C.
Final Score: 2-0
- Home didn’t lose
- Burnley didn’t score
- Bet wins
Example 2:
Match: Real Madrid CF vs Getafe CF
Final Score: 0-0
- Home didn’t lose
- Both teams didn’t score (no BTTS)
- Bet wins
Losing Examples
Example 1:
Score: 1-1
- Home didn’t lose
- But both teams scored
- Bet loses
Example 2:
Score: 0-1
- Home lost
- Even though only one team scored
- Bet loses
When Is 1X & NG a Good Option?
This market is best when:
- Home team has strong defense
- Away team has poor scoring record
- Expecting a low-scoring game
- Derby matches with tight play
- Relegation battle matches
It is common in leagues like:
- Premier League
- La Liga

Betting Tips for 1X & NG
Check Defensive Form
Look at:
- Clean sheets
- Goals conceded per match
- Home defensive strength
Check Away Team Scoring Stats
- Do they struggle away?
- Do they average less than 1 goal per game?
Avoid High-Scoring Teams
Avoid games involving attacking teams that score freely.
Check Head-to-Head (H2H)
If past meetings are usually:
- 1-0
- 0-0
- 2-0
This market can be valuable.
Advantages of 1X & NG
Safer than straight home win
Higher odds than normal 1X
Good for low-risk accumulator
Risk Warning
Even strong defensive teams can concede late goals. One single goal from both sides will destroy the bet.
Always:
- Manage your bankroll
- Avoid emotional betting
