Over 1.5 Goals Meaning
If you are new to football betting, you may be wondering what exactly a half a goal is.
An Over 1.5 Goals bet is simply an industry term for wagering on there being two goals or more scored in a given game. The scoreline does not matter; as long as the two teams registered at least two combined goals between them, your bet will win.
The inverse to an Over 1.5 Goals bet is the Under 1.5 Goals market. This works along the same lines whereby any game finishing with less than two goals will result in a win. Again, the scoreline does not matter.
Both of these bets do not apply to extra time, but stoppage time does count. Therefore, if a cup game finishes 0-0 after 90 minutes and then one team scores twice in extra time, an Under 1.5 Goals bet would pay out, but an Over 1.5 Goals Bet would not.
To clarify things further, we have included some examples below.
| Over 1.5 Goals | Under 1.5 Goals |
|---|---|
| Man United 2-1 Liverpool | Manchester City 0-0 Everton |
| Barcelona 0-4 Bayern Munich | Milan 0-1 Inter |
| Chelsea 1-1 Arsenal | Real Madrid 1-0 Roma |

Over/Under 1.5 Goals vs Over/Under 2.5 Goals & Over/Under 3.5 Goals
The exact same rules apply for Over/Under 2.5 Goals as for Over/Under 1.5 goals, with one obvious difference. Instead of the cut-off being two goals, it is three goals. As for Over/Under 3.5 Goals, the cut off is four.
These three markets tend to have wildly different odds, though. The difference in odds between an Over and Under 1.5 Goals market is usually minimal. However, as the cut-off increases, the disparity does as well.
We suggest betting on over 2.5 or 3.5 goals only when the team you are betting on tends to score a high average number of goals per game. Making sure their main threats are fit to play is also helpful. To keep yourself informed, we have compiled a list of the most useful stats sites for your reference.
What Is Asian Total Betting?
Asian Total betting, or the Asian Goal Line market, is a similar form of over/under betting with several interesting additions alongside the regular over/under 1.5, 2.5, and 3.5 goals options.
Firstly, this market offers the option to bet on ‘over the whole number of goals’, e.g. over/under 2 goals. It is best explained with the example below:
Asian Goal Line Betting also allows you to include quarter goals on your Over/Under Goals bets. The best way to explain this unique betting phenomenon is by using another example.
The same logic applies to Over 1.25 Goals, where one goal would result in a Half-Loss. For Over 3.25 Goals, 3 goals would trigger a Half-Loss.
Over 1.5 Goals Tips
What Are the Stakes?
When betting on any game, regardless of whether you are placing an Over 1.5 Goals bet or not, pre-match research is key. Knowing what the stakes are going into the contest will help you decide how each team may behave under duress.
Is one team’s manager under some sort of pressure? Perhaps they will set up conservatively in order to avoid defeat. Has one team got a lot of injuries in their defence? In that case, they are likely to concede more goals.
Picking up on things like this requires minimal effort, and failure to do so could see you overlook something important that could affect your Over 1.5 Goals bets.
Look for Trends
No two football competitions are the same. The Premier League averages more goals than Serie A for example, while Bundesliga matches tend to be higher-scoring than their La Liga counterparts. All of these leagues and plenty more are covered in our Over 1.5 Goals stats table, so make sure you consult this prior to making your selections.
The same applies for teams. Depending on the ability and tactical style of each side, they will be more or less likely to score more goals in a match. Again, you can track this information through our above table.
Prior to placing your Over 1.5 Goals bet, make sure you search for trends. High-scoring teams may go on an over 1.5 streak with an in-form striker or an injured opposing goalkeeper. Search for trends in both the teams and league to increase your chances of predicting correctly.
Use Advanced Stats
Finding stats that can help you place successful Over 1.5 Goals bets has never been easier. As well as TPP’s own facts and figures, football statistics aggregators like KickForm provide punters with extra ways to get ahead.
Before betting, you should be looking at stats like expected goals and advanced defensive metrics, as well as staples like goals scored/conceded and clean sheets. Other data you can use to get ahead are head-to-head records.
Finding out how two teams have fared against each other in the past can assist in predicting how things may turn out this time around.

Do Not Force It
If you are still struggling to decide whether to place an Over 1.5 Goals Bet after taking all of this into account, our advice would be to give it a miss.
The market can be tough to predict and rarely returns high winnings. Having said that, if you do spot some value, it can be a great wager to add to your betting slip.
Over 1.5 Goals Accumulators
On their own, you are unlikely to get particularly enticing odds. However, Over/Under 1.5 Goals bets are great additions to accumulators. By combining several different bets at once, prices will skyrocket. That said, it is worth bearing in mind that it only takes one of these bets to fail for your combi-bet to go bust.
The best thing about over/under betting is that you don’t need to predict a winner. Even a shock result such as Brentford’s 4-0 trashing of Man United in the 2022 Premier League would see you win, even if you weren’t expecting this outcome.
Without having to pick a definitive winner, your acca will look a lot more promising and secure, allowing you to bet on a wider range of events. Otherwise, you can place an accumulator on over 1.5 goals only, especially in a tricky week.
Over 1.5 Goals accumulators are best placed on a series of games happening on the same day or over a weekend. If you place them too far apart, you will be left waiting far too long to find out. No one wants that.
Prior to placing your combi-bet, make sure to check out ThePuntersPage's guide to everything you need to know about accumulators.
Alternatives To Over/Under 1.5 Goals
The possibilities for football betting really are endless. Whether you prefer pre-game or in-play markets, there is plenty for punters to get their teeth stuck into on most sportsbooks. Some of the most popular options include Winner/Loser, First/Last Goalscorer and Outright Winner markets.
As you have clicked on this Over 1.5 Goals Stats article, though, you are likely looking for some niche ideas.
This market is exactly what it says on the tin. If you think that both teams are going to score, bet Yes. If you don’t, bet No. It really is as simple as that.
Again, research is key. Two high-scoring teams are far more likely to play out an entertaining contest than two defensively minded sides. Only by checking out the Both Team To Score stats beforehand can you learn which club fits into which category.
An increasingly popular market for punters is predicting how many yellow cards will be brandished in a game. Some bookmakers package this bet as ‘Booking Points’, but the concept remains the same.
TPP provides in-depth cards and booking points stats to help you predict how many cards might be handed out during a match. Of course, you can always supplement this with your own research.
Betting on the amount of corners in a match may seem like one of the stranger football markets, but it still finds its way onto many people’s betting slips each week.
These days, corner stats are tracked and easy to find. This makes it far easier to bet on this market than you might think. TPP also has your back with our in-depth corner stats for a wide range of leagues across the world.
Total Team Goals does not take into account which team scores, as long as the number of goals is correct.
For this market, you need to be more precise by predicting the exact number of goals converted by your chosen side. You may be sensing a theme here… but once again, ThePuntersPage offers Total Team Goals stats to help you make the most of this market.
