Both teams to score explained

With «both teams to score – yes» you win if each team scores at least once, whatever the result. With «no» you win if at least one side fails to score.

Examples

Score Yes No
1-1 wins loses
2-1 wins loses
3-0 loses wins
0-0 loses wins

The stats to check

  1. Recent BTTS rate: in the last 8 games, how often did both teams score – home and away?
  2. Clean sheets: a side that regularly keeps clean sheets lowers the chance.
  3. xG conceded: a defence regularly allowing more than 1.3 xG will concede sooner or later.
  4. Team news: are the top scorer and first-choice centre-back available?

A simple strategy

Look for matches where both sides have scored in at least 60% of their recent games and conceded in at least 50%. Only bet if the price is above 1.65 – below that, the return is too small against the risk of a 1-0.

In-play, if the favourite scores early, the «yes» price often drifts above 2.00 while the underdog now has to attack.
