Understanding over/under goals
Use the figures as a starting point, then explore the games and scoring patterns behind them.
How should I read an over-goals percentage?
If six of ten eligible matches finished with three or more goals, the over 2.5 rate is 60%. The percentage summarizes those results; it does not establish a 60% chance for the upcoming fixture. Under 2.5 covers the remaining results in the same sample.
How do total goals differ from BTTS?
Total goals measures the combined score; BTTS asks whether each team scored. A 1–1 draw meets BTTS but stays under 2.5 goals. A 3–0 win goes over 2.5 while missing BTTS.
