Reading football odds: 1X2, Over/Under and BTTS
Football · 2026-10-15
Whether you follow the Nigeria Premier Football League, the Super Eagles or the European leagues, most football markets come down to three questions.
1X2 (match result)
1 means the home team wins, X a draw, and 2 the away team wins. Only the result after regular time counts, not extra time or penalties, unless the market says otherwise.
Over/Under 2.5 goals
Over wins if the match has three or more goals; Under wins with two or fewer. There is no draw because half-goals cannot happen.
Both teams to score (BTTS)
YES wins if each team scores at least once. A 1-1 or 2-1 settles YES; 0-0 or 2-0 settles NO.
Kickoff and settlement
Markets lock at kickoff, so no tickets are taken once play starts. Avalon settles from the final official score; postponed or cancelled matches are voided and stakes refunded.
