Betting on football comes with a variety of options, whether it's guessing the victor, exact scores, or the total goals scored. One such option is the “Under 3.5 Goals” market.
Under 3.5 goals markets means that you're betting that the total number of goals scored in a match will be three or fewer.
This type of betting market allows you to wager on the total number of goals scored in a match, specifically betting that the total goals scored will be three or fewer. This is a very popular market among top bookmakers in the country.
To make it clearer for you to understand, let's use an example involving two English Premier League (EPL) teams, Arsenal and Manchester United. Suppose there's an upcoming match between Arsenal and Manchester United, and the odds for the “Under 3.5 Goals” market are as follows:
- Arsenal vs. Manchester United
- Under 3.5 Goals
- Odds: 1.50
This means that if you bet 100 on “Under 3.5 Goals” at odds of 1.50 and the match ends with three or fewer goals scored (0, 1, 2, or 3 goals), you'd win the bet. To calculate potential winnings:
- If you bet 100 at odds of 1.50 and the bet wins:
- Potential winnings = Stake x Odds
- Potential winnings = 100 x 1.50 = 150
- Profit = Potential winnings – Stake
- Profit = 150 – 100 = ?0
If the match ends with four or more goals (4 or more), the “Under 3.5 Goals” bet would lose, and you'd lose your stake of 100.
Odds to expect for Under 3.5 Market
In football betting, the odds for the “Under 3.5 Goals” market are typically higher than the Under 2.5 Goals and Under 1.5 Goals markets as it allows for an additional goal to be scored while still resulting in a winning bet.
Similar to other betting markets, the odds for “Under 3.5 Goals” can vary based on factors such as team form, playing styles, historical goal-scoring records, and specific match circumstances.
Here are a few reasons why the odds might be higher in the “Under 3.5 Goals” market:
- Increased Margin of Error: Allowing up to three goals gives more leeway for a bet to win. With “Under 2.5 Goals,” any match with three or more goals results in a loss. However, “Under 3.5 Goals” allows for an extra goal to be scored while still resulting in a winning bet, increasing the chances of that outcome.
- Higher Scoring Occurrence: In many football matches, teams score more than two goals. Allowing up to three goals to be scored in the “Under 3.5 Goals” market means there's a higher likelihood of that outcome happening compared to the stricter “Under 2.5 Goals.”
- Market Demand: The odds are also influenced by the demand for specific markets. If more bettors are placing bets on the “Under 2.5 Goals” market, the odds might be lower due to higher demand. Conversely, the “Under 3.5 Goals” market might have slightly higher odds due to less demand or perceived increased risk.
Tips to bet on Under 3.5 Goals Betting
Betting on the “Under 3.5 Goals” market can be both strategic and challenging. Here are some tips to consider when placing bets on this market:
- Research Team Stats: Look into the teams' historical data, recent performances, defensive strategies, and their tendencies in scoring and conceding goals. Teams known for tight defences or low-scoring games might be good candidates for “Under 3.5 Goals” bets.
- Head-to-Head Analysis: Check the head-to-head records between the teams. Some matchups historically result in lower-scoring games due to tactical battles, defensive strength, or previous patterns of play.
- Injury and Lineup News: Stay updated with team news, especially regarding key defensive players or changes in formations. Injuries or lineup changes can significantly impact a team's defensive solidity or attacking prowess, affecting the likelihood of fewer goals being scored.
- Weather Conditions: Weather can influence the style of play and affect the number of goals scored. Rain, wind, or extreme temperatures can sometimes lead to more cautious and defensive play.
- Analyse Match Importance: Consider the importance of the match to both teams. Cup games, derbies, or matches crucial for relegation or championship positions might result in more cautious play.
- Consider Betting In-Play: Sometimes, observing the flow of the game in the early stages can provide insights into whether the match is likely to be high or low-scoring. Betting in play allows you to adjust your strategy based on how the game unfolds.
