What is Total Goals Under 1.5 in Betting

Total goals under 1.5 is a type of wager that predicts that the total number of goals scored by both teams in a match will be less than 2.

This means that the only way to win this bet is if the match ends with 0 or 1 goal.

Any score with 2 or more goals will result in a loss.

This bet is popular among football fans, as low-scoring games are common. It can also be applied to different segments (1st half/2nd half), specific intervals (before/after 60th minute), or individual goals (how many goals a specific player will score).

How to Calculate Your Payout with Total Goals Under 1.5

What are the conditions for winning or losing the bet? Here’s a simple explanation.

For example, let’s say you bet $100 on total goals under 1.5 with odds of 3.00 for the match between Chelsea and Man City in the Premier League. This means that you expect the match to end with 0 or 1 goal. Let’s say the match ends 0-0.

Here’s how much you made:

  • Payout = $100 x 3.00 = $300
  • Profit = $300 – $100 = $200

Note: But if the match ended with 2+ goals, such as 1-1, 2-0, or 0-2, you would have lost your wager.

Best Markets to Bet on with Total Goals Under 1.5 Betting

Total goals under 1.5 betting is not just about the total score. You can also bet on other aspects of the match that affect the scoring, such as:

  • 1 or 2 Half: Pick either the 1st or the 2nd half to have 0 or 1 goal.
  • Player-Specific Goals: Choose a player who you think will not score more than 1 goal.
  • Team Goals: Bet on which team will score 0 or 1 goal in the match.
  • Time-Specific Goals: Bet on whether there will be 0 or 1 goal in a specific period of the match (up to 30th minute, etc.)

Note: It doesn’t matter who wins, draws, or loses. What matters is how many goals are scored in the whole game or half-time.
