What does BTTS mean?

BTTS means both teams to score a goal each in 90 minutes. You don't need to predict who will win the match.

When you bet on this market, you’re simply choosing “Yes” or “No” if you think both teams will find the back of the net or not.

If you were to pick a game like Liverpool vs. Arsenal for both teams to find the net and the game finishes 2-1, your “Yes” would be a winner because both teams scored. But if it ends 1-0, you’ll lose your wager because only one team managed to score.

Alternatively, if you select “No” in your BTTS bet, it means that you are betting that at least one of the teams will not score. If the game finishes 0-0 or 2-0 then your “No” bet will win as one side or both failed to put the ball in the net. However, if the result is 1-1 then your bet would lose as both teams scored.

BTTS bets are most effective when you’re aware that both teams have strong attacking players and have a history of scoring goals even if they may also concede a fair amount too. It can be an exhilarating type of bet to make as it keeps you invested in the game until full-time, providing there is still a chance for both teams to score.

How to identify quality BTTS football betting tips?

When it comes to finding good BTTS tips, the most important thing you’ll need is quality research. You can use team stats, head-to-head records, or even the current form; it all helps to provide really accurate btts predictions.

First of all, have a look at each selecting team to be sure whether both teams scored in their last 5-10 games. If both teams being selected are scoring goals and also conceding then it's more likely that you've got an accurate betting prediction.

Also check out the matches played between both the teams in history. If their past encounters often end with both teams scoring, this could be a good indicator that the trend may continue.

Next thing to consider is the availability of key players, especially strikers and defenders. If a team’s top scorer is injured or suspended, their chances of scoring might decrease, making a BTTS bet less attractive. The same if a key defender is missing, such a side might be vulnerable to let in goals.

Tactics or motivation can also be an important factor in BTTS bet. Where both sides need the three points, they can be more attacking and that means BTTS is more likely. However, if one side is likely to defend for whatever reason then the likelihood of a BTTS will decrease.

Key advantages of choosing a BTTS prediction

When you choose a BTTS tip that includes teams that are attacking, you're more likely to be calm. The more the teams attack, the more likely they're going to be vulnerable at the back, which means the chances of having plenty of goals increase.

BTTS tip also brings that unexplained excitement for every goal-scoring opportunity, especially if you're watching the game. The fact that both teams keep creating goals-scoring chances brings hope and belief that they'll soon find the net.

Another benefit is that you don't have to wait till the end of the match to confirm your bet. Most times, teams that have something at stake usually attack from the first whistle and if you're lucky, both teams might score in the first 45 minutes, meaning you've won your bet.

Weekend both teams to score football tips

For this weekend’s bets, in general you should look for matches where the teams are likely to play an open game based on their head-to-head record and depth of attacking talent, but every weekend there are scenarios that are worth looking for.

  • High Scoring Fixtures. Some fixtures historically produce a lot of goals, and it can sometimes be hard to pinpoint why. Occasionally, these are local rivalries among top teams in a division like the Premier League, where fans expect goals and both squads are full of expensive attacking talent.
  • Targeted Games. Sometimes, in the top divisions, smaller teams focus on games against similar opponents that they have a chance of beating. These games can become frenetic in the closing stages if one or both of the teams feel that their chance of earning crucial points is slipping away, which can increase goal attempts.
  • Nothing to Lose. If the above scenario occurs early in the season, this can further increase the chances of a BTTS bet being successful. With months of a season still to go, coaches may feel able to be bolder and more experimental than in the closing weeks of the season, when every point feels crucial. The result can be open games in which goal chances increase.
