What is Over/Under 2.5 Goals?

Another very simple betting market is Over/Under goals, with the most commonly used target being 2.5 goals. The concept is simple: if the total number of goals scored in a match is greater than 2.5, Over 2.5 will be a winning bet. Conversely, if the total is fewer than 2.5 goals, Under 2.5 will win.

For example, a match ending 3-0 is "Over 2.5," while a match ending 1-1 is "Under 2.5."

Of course, 2.5 goals isn't the only option. Typically, the market ranges from 0.5 to 4.5 goals, but 2.5 remains the most commonly used benchmark.

There are also variations of the Over/Under market for corners and cards, but here we're focusing on goals because it's simpler to analyze.

As with BTTS, we use the same type of analysis to identify matches likely to go Over or Under. First, we evaluate the odds probabilities, then we apply H2H (head-to-head) analysis.

On this page, you can also check the accuracy of each interval. However, Over/Under predictions are not as tightly clustered as BTTS predictions. It's also rare for bookmakers to offer Over/Under odds with probabilities higher than 70%, so be aware that only a few predictions are in the 75%+ range.

The return on Over/Under bets is quite competitive compared to other markets because the outcomes are effectively 50/50.
