The name alone would describe the outcome we are rooting for, both teams must score in the match regardless of the full-time result.
It’s simple, easy-to-understand, and has a very high success rate if research is done on goal markets carefully.
And over the years, the BTTS has become one of the fan-favorites of the punters. With consistent and impressive returns, the bet has been in the mainstream ever since football wagers became a common thing.

And over the years, the BTTS has become one of the fan-favorites of the punters. With consistent and impressive returns, the bet has been in the mainstream ever since football wagers became a common thing.
In the case of this particular punt, right away we start with a chance of 50% success, and our objective should be to increase it as much as we can. And that’s where a bit of analytics would do a world of good.
Teams and players on hot scoring-streaks should be given special attention in this case. To identify a pattern, bettors usually rely on the records of the previous five games at a minimum. If more games could be taken into account, that would further strengthen our chances.
Preferably, teams that give prominence to attack are the horses that we need to back.
Meaning – the likes of Atletico Madrid, coached by Diego Simeone, would try to win a game ½ – 0, if that’s possible. Overtly defensive football might get the job done for the teams, but it defeats our particular purpose. And thus, these kinds of teams are seldom used for this wager.
Going on, hugely lopsided games are also considered risky to place the BTTS. The favorites might win by a huge margin (which would be ideal to place the O 2.5 Goals) – but, the underdog might fail to score at all.
However, if the favorites have problems at the back, then that would be kind of an ideal pick for us. Good examples would be the Barcelona side of last season, and the current Atalanta team from the Serie A.
With red-hot attackers at the front, and a leaky defense at the back – the Catalans were the darlings of punters to place the BTTS in 2019-20.
Apart from the high rates of success, one huge attraction for this punt is the fact that it’s a lot less nerve-racking. If you had waged on Team A winning, every time Team B crosses into the other half, you would be jumping off the couch.
However, in case of the Both Teams to Score – each and every possession, every single attack, is taking you further nearer to your objective.
Moreover, unlike so many other bets, you might not have to wait for the ref to blow the full-time whistle for the wager to cash in. If you have done your research well, you just might get lucky even before the half-time.
Furthermore, due to its huge popularity, it’s in high demand for combination and accumulator bets.
As mentioned earlier, outright defensive football and bus-parking (thanks, Mourinho), are a big no-no for this punt.
One usual question that arises for newcomers is if goals slotted in during the extra time count towards the bet?
The answer is, no. The BTTS states that both teams should score goals within the stipulated ninety minutes. The stoppage time allowed by the ref is counted with these ninety though.
One other worry is if own goals count?
For that, the answer is, yes. As long as a team is credited with a goal, however it may have been scored, it is counted as their goal.
As mentioned earlier, analysis of stats and form play a considerable role in determining the success of football bets. That’s where we come in.
