Both Teams to Score (BTTS) is one of football's most popular markets — and one of the most reliably mispriced. Our analysts use xG (expected goals) data, team defensive records, and historical BTTS rates to identify matches where the market price is too short or too long. High-press teams with leaky defences consistently produce BTTS results; well-organised defensive teams with attacking pace consistently suppress scoring. We track historical BTTS accuracy publicly so you can assess real performance.
BTTS is a binary football market: both teams must score at least one goal for BTTS Yes to win. A 1-0 result means BTTS No wins. It's popular because it decouples from match winner and eliminates draw risk.
Bundesliga and Serie A historically have the highest BTTS rates in Europe. La Liga and Ligue 1 have lower BTTS frequencies, particularly in matches involving defensive elite teams.
If both teams have an xGA (expected goals against) above 1.2 per game and an xGF above 1.4, BTTS Yes is historically profitable at standard market odds. xG data is freely available on FBRef and Understat.
Yes. Scoreline-specific markets like 'BTTS & Both Win' are available at most sportsbooks. These carry higher odds and higher variance. Our analysts occasionally recommend these when value is clear in both components.
