UNDERSTANDING OVER AND UNDER IN BETTING

The total goals or goal-line is the number of goals that we think will be scored in total for a soccer match during normal time 90 minutes including injury time but excluding extra-times (ET).
You can bet either over or under the goal-line. If the total number of goals equals the goal-line, your bet stakes will be refunded.
For instance, you bet on Total Goals Over 2, but the match ended 1-1 in full time, neither do you lose nor win, so your stakes are refunded to your betting account.
We have specially included some examples for betting on total goals:

More Explanation on Over/Under Goals and Bet Examples:
If you bet on “over” when the line is 3, you lose your bet if only one or two goals are scored and win if more than three goals are scored. If exactly three goals are scored, your stake will be refunded.
If you bet on ‘under’ when the line is 2.5 and there are one or two goals in the game, you win. If there are three or more, you lose.
bet365 is a recommended bookmaker for total goals over/under betting. You can also bet in-play when the match has started. Follow the match on TV or live score results.
Football punters often like to bet on total goals over when the match involves a top team versus a weaker team in the league. Because they assume the bottom table team will concede many goals.
A split line bet can be considered two separate bets since your stake is divided equally between the two lines.
You can learn about Total Goals Over/Under through virtual betting platform at Soccer Tipsters Competition. Because you do not lose your real money and it is a matter of time that you master the trade.

Split Bet Example
So, for example, if you bet $10 on “over” when the line is 2 / 2.5 you are in fact betting $5 on over 2 and $5 on over 2.5.
In this example, if the total number of goals is 0 or 1 your bet loses.
If the total number of goals is 2 then half your bet is refunded and half your bet loses.
If the total number of goals is 3 or above then both parts of your bet win.
In our next topic, we will touch on Asian Handicap which is a very popular bet type for punters in Europe and Asia nowadays.
