How the over 2.5 goals predictions are made
- Every morning we read the over/under 2.5 goals prices of the day's matches at low-margin reference bookmakers such as Pinnacle.
- We remove the bookmaker's margin from those prices. What is left is the market's own probability that the match has three goals or more.
- We keep the matches where over 2.5 goals is the more likely side and where the price at the bookmaker shown is at least 1.50, then publish the twenty highest probabilities.
- After the final whistle, the score at 90 minutes is added next to each match.
The statistics tables are separate from the predictions: they count final scores from 30,349 finished matches in 238 leagues this season.
How often do matches finish with over 2.5 goals?
In the 30,349 finished matches of our database this season, 54% had three goals or more. The share changes a lot from one league to another: the league table on this page shows the extremes.
What does the probability next to a match mean?
It is the chance the betting market gives to three goals or more, once the bookmaker's margin is removed. A match shown at 62% is expected to stay under 2.5 goals roughly four times in ten.
Which statistics matter most for an over 2.5 goals bet?
The goals per match of the league, how often each team's matches go over 2.5 goals at home and away, and the number of matches behind those figures. A rate built on five matches says little.
Does home advantage change an over 2.5 goals bet?
It changes who scores more than how many goals are scored. That is why the league pages split each team's over 2.5 rate between home and away matches.
Should I bet over 2.5 goals every time two high-scoring teams meet?
No. The bookmaker already knows both teams score a lot and lowers the price. Compare the probability with the odds: at odds of 1.50 a bet needs to land two times in three just to break even.
