What does over 2.5 goals mean?

Over 2.5 is a goal betting market which means you bet that the total number of goals scored in a match will be three or more. If the game finishes with 0,1, or 2 goals, you lose the bet.

The over 2.5 goals market is valid only for the regular time of the match (90 minutes), no matter which team will win the game.

How to find the ideal games for over 2.5 goals

Your main goal is to find matches between two teams that score goals easily, and also accept goals. However, there are some things to check out before placing an over 2.5 goals bet.

  • Check the form of both teams

Take note of the number of goals the teams scored in recent games and if they also receive goals. Does the home team accept goals when playing in their stadium? Are the guests scoring with ease when playing away from home?

  • Check the head-to-head results

Check if the teams' recent meetings produced many goals from both sides. This is a worth checking statistic.

  • Check if there are injuries and suspensions

Always read the teams news if possible. Are there any essential players missing in teams' defensive or attacking lines?

Similar goal markets and variations

There are several variations of total goal markets to consider. Some of them offer lower odds and risk, while others offer higher odds than the typical over 2.5 goals market.

Over 1.5 goals

In this market, you bet on a match to finish with two or more goals scored. If there will be 0 or 1 goal scored, you lose your bet.

Over 1.5 & Under 1.5 goals explained

The over 1.5 goals bets are easier to win but are offered with lower odds than the typical over 2.5 market.

Over 2 goals

Be careful with this market, as many times it's not explained well; This is an Asian betting market where you get your stake back if it ends with exactly two goals.

Over 2 & Under 2 goals explained

You will find more similar markets in all bookmakers, like over 3, over 3.5, over 4, over 4.5 etc. They all work identically like described above.

Have fun!
