Guide to Over/Under Total Goals Betting

The Over/Under Total Goals bet is an extended version of the standard Over/Under goals market. Similar to the regular Over/Under goals bet, this version offers a wider variety of choices, making it ideal for those who enjoy taking risks.

In the Over/Under Total Goals market, players can choose from 8 to 16 different Over/Under goal lines provided by the online bookmaker. These lines usually range from 0.5, 1, 1.5... Up to 7.5, 8, and beyond.

As a special type of bet, Over/Under Total Goals opens up opportunities to wager on almost unimaginable goal lines, which also come with equally extreme potential returns or losses. For example, you wouldn't normally expect a Chelsea vs. Manchester United match to have an Over/Under line set at 7 goals, right? And of course, each of these lines comes with payout odds that vary widely, from very high to very low.

However, what makes Over/Under Total Goals betting interesting is that it offers players a chance to place small bets for high returns, or to play it safe with modest but more secure profits.

How Winnings Are Calculated for Over/Under Total Goals Bets:

Winnings are calculated using European odds:

Winnings = Bet Amount x Over/Under Odds

<p dir="ltr">A bet on Over 1.5 wins: $100 x 0.16 = $16

<p dir="ltr">A bet on Over 0.5 wins: $100 x 0.0005 = $0.50

<p dir="ltr">You also win bets on Under 7.5, 6.5, 5.5, 4.5, 3.5, and 2.5

<p dir="ltr">You lose the remaining Over bets.

<p dir="ltr">If the final score is Basel 2&ndash;5 Man City:

<p dir="ltr">You win Over bets on 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, and 6.5.
