Under 0.5 Goal Betting Strategies

Among the total goals betting markets, Under 0.5 is one of the least popular. However, it is a good option for both single and parlays bets. The Under 0.5 betting market is also called Under 0.5 goal. As its name suggests, it refers to that less than one goal must occur in the match on which you are betting. There should not be goals in the match, leaving this with a result of 0-0. It is also applicable to each match's halves or the goals scored by one of the two teams in the game. So, when we bet on the Under 0.5 goal market, we predict that no goals will happen in a match. Therefore, all results with goals are ruled out 1-0, 1-1, 2-1, etc.

When Is It Convenient To Bet On Under 0.5 Goal?

It is advisable to bet on under 0.5 when we estimate that a match can end without goals. This situation usually happens in close matches between defensively strong teams that have difficulties scoring. Also, this bet is appropriate in matches between two big teams that cannot afford a defeat. In these types of games, they tend to be conservative, so the chances of scoring will be rare. Other cases in which it is appropriate to bet on this betting market are the following:

  • Matches with a large difference in level between the teams: In this type of match, the weak team will probably end up without scoring a goal, which when the big team plays at home. Therefore, we should bet on Under 0.5 but only for the small team.
  • Games where losing harms both clubs: These are the type of games in which, for example, two big teams compete for a title. It can also happen that two small teams fight to avoid relegation. In both cases, a tie is very likely at the end of the 90 regulatory minutes. There is likely a kind of “tacit non-aggression pact.” No team will risk attacking in these cases since it could receive a goal in a counterattack from the opposing team.
  • Matches of low-scoring teams: Finally, the clearest case to bet on under 0.5 is when teams with little goal production and good defenses faced each other. It can also happen that, usually, there are few goals when two teams face each other directly.

For this type of bet, it is important to study each team's recent stats. In this way, you can estimate how closed or wide the victory margin of each team is. The vast majority of bookies offer very similar odds on this type of bet. So, this is not a high odds betting market. Therefore, it does not usually attract bettors' attention. In this sense, we must know that the winnings per bet will be minimal. But, they can be very safe if we choose the right matches. On the other hand, combining a bet on this betting market with other bets will get quite attractive odds.
