2 (0:1) in Football Betting

2 (0:1) is a football betting market known as a 1-goal handicap away win. In this market, the away team starts the match with a virtual 1-goal advantage.

Your bet wins if, after applying the 1-goal handicap to the away team, the away team is still leading.

How 2 (0:1) Works

• 2 = Away team to win after handicap.
• 0:1 = Away team is given 1 goal before kickoff.

This means your bet wins if the home team does not win the match by 2 or more goals.

Winning Scores for 2 (0:1)

Your bet wins if the actual result is:

• Home team wins by exactly 1 goal
• Match ends in a draw
• Away team wins

Example Winning Scores

• 1-0 (Handicap score: 1-1; note: this is a draw after handicap, so X (0:1) wins, not 2 (0:1))
• 1-1
• 0-0
• 0-1
• 2-2
• 1-2

Important Note

If the home team wins by exactly 1 goal, the handicap result becomes a draw. Therefore, X (0:1) wins, not 2 (0:1).

Examples:

• 1-0
• 2-1
• 3-2
