I'll clarify, in case someone does not know, or does not understand. Total goals in a match is the total number of goals scored by both teams in regulation time.
Bets on the fact that the goals in the match will be more than a certain value are very popular and they are included in the main line that the bookmaker (BC) provides for the match. Such bets are designated as Total over, TB, over. And the same value is indicated, more than which the total goals must be in order for the bet to play.
The classical boundary value of the total is 2.5. Those. a match in which three or more goals are scored is considered riding, because. broken total 2.5. Accordingly, if 1-2 goals are scored, or not a single one, this is a grassroots match, and the total of 2.5 is not broken. It is not at all surprising that the bookmakers have chosen just such a boundary value of the total, because a lot of games end with scores of 2:0, 1:1 and 2:1. And, as we understand, the line between grassroots 2:0, 1:1 and horsemen 2:1, 3:0 is one ball. Balancing on this edge, you can shoot a lot of “player scalps”. So, you have to be very careful at 2.5 and insure yourself.
Some bookmakers always push off Total 2.5 in the main line, and some vary it, depending on the game. But, in the additional line, as a rule, a number of additional bets on totals are given. The most relevant are bets on total over: 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5.
As you can see, there are both fractional values of the total and integers. The difference is that with integer values of the total, the bet can be returned if the number of goals in the match exactly matches the value of the total. For example, if you bet on TB(3), and the score in the game is fixed at 3:0 or 2:1, then the bet will be returned, its calculation with a coefficient of 1. Accordingly, if there are more than three goals: 4, 5, etc. , then the bet has played. If it is less, then the bet is lost.
If the value of the total is a fractional multiple of 0.5, then the return is not possible. Here, either more and win the bet, or less and lose.
Also, there are so-called. double Asian totals. Their value is a multiple of 0.25. For example, a bet on Total Over(2.25) means that half of the bet is placed on Under(2) and the other half on Under(2.5). If one goal is scored or none, then the entire bet loses. If 2 goals are scored. Then on TB(2) there is a return, and on TB(2.5) - a loss. So the player gets back half of his bet. If 3 or more goals are scored, then both halves of the bet win.
So, the bet on Total is higher. Let's figure out when, and on what totals it is worth betting. What factors affect it. Let's start with different meanings totals and their features.
TB(1.5)- this is a fairly small total. For this bet to win, it is enough that only 2 goals are scored in the game. In some average match, a completely ridiculous coefficient is given for such a total, because. this total breaks very often. It is quite clear that such a bet will be appropriate, and will have a normal coefficient, in a match where specific teams meet. These are teams with an extremely weak and unconvincing attacking line, with problems in building an attacking game, and with purely defensive tactics. But, if the forecaster sees the teams have some chance that they will score at least 2 goals, this can be a good bet.
TB(2)- also a very small total, only with a return, if two goals are scored, and a win with three or more. On this bet, in some games, you can find a good coefficient. This total is often taken when there is no certainty that the 2.5 total will be broken. Those. the probability of three balls is estimated by the forecaster as not very high, but two - quite. If we take TB(2.5), with more high coefficient, you can get burned. The bet on TB (2), although it gives a small coefficient, but insures the player. If the coefficient is too low, for example, no more than 1.3-1.4, then you can make an express double from the most confident TB(2) in the line. If there is no normal coefficient, and the express seems risky, we simply reject this bet and look for other options, or other matches.
TB(2.5) – classical meaning total, separating the grassroots match from the riding one, from where less or more than 3 goals are scored. Very popular view bets among betting lovers. However, I rarely do this. Usually, I either reinsure on TB(2) or swing on TB(3), where, as a rule, a very good ratio.
TB(3)– one of my favorite types of betting on total over. Often, especially on days when a lot of matches are played in the leading European leagues, it is possible to choose several very promising confrontations, where this total breaks through. This bet is good for a number of reasons. Firstly, if the match turns out to be super productive, as our forecast suggested, then a bet with a good odds passes. Often, it is possible to win with odds of 1.90-2.00 and higher, even in the region of 2.30-2.50. If only three goals happen, then - return. We stay with ours.
TB(3.5)- this is the same total, where the win comes at least with 4 goals scored. But, there is no return insurance here ... Of course, here the coefficient is higher. However, such totals can be systematically flirted and won with the leading clubs, the giants, who profess total football and are on the move. If we talk about the last season 2015-2016, then good segments with suitable results were shown by: Barcelona, Real Madrid, PSG, Napoli, Liverpool. However, there were downturns for these teams. So, when betting on such a risky total, you need to carefully monitor the shape of the teams. And at the slightest “thickening of the clouds”, or roll back to a more reliable total, or in general, bet on other markets.
TB(4)- extremely high total. An extremely risky bet. However, if you guess a match with the participation of a team that can break through this total, even alone, you can win a bet with a very good odds.
Factors for betting on Total Over
It is well known that in a particular football match, the team plays as the opponent allows it. Accordingly, in order to break through one or another value of the total goals, it is necessary that both teams score, both concede, or at least one score for two. Accordingly, it is necessary to establish how the attack and defense of both teams play and see what their characteristics will allow you to make a confident bet on the total over.
Attacking potential of teams. This capacious concept includes: the presence of driving forwards; they have no injuries or disqualifications; abundance of heads, in general, and in recent games, in particular; attacking tactics of the team as a whole; an attacking game model against a given type of opponent (the ratio of forces and tactics, at home and away, depending on the tournament objectives).
Problems in team defense. Not only the strength of the attack leads to balls, but also the weakness of the defense. So, it should be taken as a positive factor for betting on overtime if: the defense plays poorly, concedes a lot in general and in recent games, in particular; there are injured or disqualified main defenders; the goalkeeper is not extremely reliable; the main goalkeeper is injured and will play some kind of “salabon” from the double. 😉 ; not a convincing game of the team against strong, briskly attacking teams.
Factors against betting on Total Over
Accordingly, it is necessary to monitor the negative factors that may prevent breaking through the total taken for the bet. Everything is the other way around here, you need to look at the situation, before the game, for problems with the attack and good signs for defense. Those. now I'm going to go over not the basics, but about what can stick a stick in the wheel of our top goal match. The factors for the high total of goals I have indicated above. Of course, it is necessary to look at them first of all. This, relatively speaking, is our “barrel of honey”. And now, about the “fly in the ointment” that can spoil this barrel for us.
Problems with team attack. Withdrawn due to injury or disqualification of the leading scorer of the team; the team's calendar is too tight and top scorers may not fully recover.
The problem for attacking actions can be the weather, a bad field. Of course, this is more the reality of Russia, other post-Soviet countries, the Scandinavian countries and the stadiums of teams from the lower leagues, in the same Britain. But, you have to be careful. You can overlook this factor, and bet on the total more. Teams simply won’t be able to attack normally on a heavy wet field, which, in some cases, becomes like a vegetable garden… Developing the topic of such an exotic factor as the quality of the field, you should be wary if one of the teams has an artificial turf at their home stadium. As a rule, on an unusual field, many teams do not show themselves so well in attack.
Defensive potential of teams. The problem for breaking through the total on the part of the defense may be the return of the recovered main defender to the ranks. Also, such a factor can be the presence of a first-class, “courageous” goalkeeper, who, despite the failed defense game, alone can drag more than one ball and cut off our total. No wonder there is an expression: "a goalkeeper is half a team." So, if a certain total is seen, and the team that needs to catch a “full bag” has a good goalkeeper in shape, then it is better to subtract at least 0.5 from the total value and see if the bet on TB is appropriate in this form.
Conclusion. With the right balance of factors for and against, it is possible to identify potentially high games from a series of matches (for example, a rich line on football weekends of European championships), where not only the total of 2.5 will break through, but also much more.
How to select events for bets on total more, and many others standing views rates? How to correlate factors in predicting the outcome of matches? I will talk about this in detail in the analytical block of my training course: “Competent football bets. Nik Bet System”.

Three-way total in bets, 3way or three-way is a total consisting of three options: over, under and equal. As a rule, it is used in football betting. The outcome is not popular due to the difficulty in predicting, although it is estimated at a higher coefficient than the standard total.
An example of a three-way total
The outcome appears only in popular matches. Let's analyze the market using the example of painting a football match in BC 1xBet.
Suppose, after analyzing the event, you came to the conclusion that the teams will score three times. This outcome is "equal to 3". The bet will pass if there are 3 goals in the game. Any other amount is a loss. The market is estimated by a coefficient in the range of 3.0-4.5, since it is difficult to predict exact number balls.
Calculation of the three-way total
Let's use the previous example and consider the calculation of each outcome:
- more than 3: 0, 1, 2 or 3 goals - loss, 4 or more - win;
- equals 3: 3 goals - victory, another number - loss;
- less than 3: 0, 1 or 2 - pass the bet, 3 or more - defeat.
Total differs in that if the value coincides with the number of goals scored, the bet is not returned, but loses. If in the whole total (TB or TM (3)) with three goals there is a return, then with a bet "over" 3 - a loss.
Three-way total corners in football
The type of total is actively used for betting on corners in football. The essence and calculation of the market is the same as for the total of the match, but the quotes are much higher, especially for the exact amount (the equal option).
When choosing a bet, immediately discard "equal" as it is too risky to predict. Consider greater than or less than a certain value. If you predicted 13 corners, take not TO (12.5) for 2.1, but “over 12” for 3.4.
Summary
Bets are available in 1xBet, where the three-way total is given on the match and corners. The margin on the outcome is 10.7-11.4%. There is a similar market in BC Baltbet - you need to choose whether the match total will be equal to certain number or not.
Football among bettors and analysts occupies a leading position in betting. Strategies for total over enjoy great popularity. From the title of the article it becomes clear what the essence of the scheme is - the selection of the outcome total over 3.5 (over 3.5) in football .
The mechanism is used directly in real-time betting. Note: TO (3.5) - means that two teams must score four goals or more. For example, a score of 2:2, 3:3, 3:1, 1:3, 2:3, 3:2 and even more effective matches will do.
Strategy
- We choose a duel, where for a given minute the score is 1:1, and on the timer the arrow is closer to the 40th minute. A similar result indicates that in the first period both the hosts and the guests were active on the football field, acted on the attack, did not put a "bus" at their gates, in other words, did not sit on the defensive. The winner is not determined, so the score 1:1 in the second 45-minute, in theory, will force the teams to continue the fight for three points or advance to the next round of the competition, if it is the championship or the cup, respectively, which will lead to a goal.
- The expediency of the bet is determined by the quote indicated in the outcome of the total over 3.5. It is desirable to select coefficients from 1.70. Often in a football confrontation at the end of the first period, the quote reaches 1.70.
- We pay attention to the "driving" championships. These include: Holland, England, Germany, Scandinavian countries. You should not forget to look into the statistics, the study of which will increase the effectiveness of the strategy.
Each user can modify the TB scheme (3.5) for himself, supplement it with something and improve it due to his own observations in the betting process. For example, some cappers can use the catch-up system. In case of an unsuccessful outcome, double the bet amount for the next TB bet (3.5). Note that this is a progressive strategy. Here it would be wise to acquire good start-up capital, distribute it correctly and accurately, and correctly assess risks.
Among the bets on the number of goals in the game, you can find such a bet as TB 3. It differs from the classic total in one feature. If in the case of a half there is a clear distinction between two and three balls, then with an integer total there is another possible variant calculation of the bet, in which the player receives back the bet amount (refund). This happens when exactly three goals are scored in a match.
What is TB 3?
A bet on TB 3 means that 4 or more goals must be scored in the match for the client to win. The question arises: what is the difference between this option and TB 3.5? The difference is that if there are three goals in the game, then the amount of the bet is returned to the player with a coefficient of 1. With a TB of 3.5, the bet would be calculated as lost. Therefore, the coefficient for TB 3 is usually lower than for TB 3.5
How is the TB 3 rate calculated?
There are three options for calculating the "total goals: over 3" bet:
- Win: 4 goals or more;
- Return: 3 goals;
- Loss: 0-2 goals.
It should be noted that the total goals certain types sports can be calculated both taking into account the main, and taking into account extra time. To do this, you need to familiarize yourself with the rules of the bookmaker. For example, bets on football are accepted almost everywhere for the main time of the game. In contrast, in baseball, the extra inning counts.
If the player bet on TB 3, and the match ended with a score of 3-1, then he wins the bet, since 4 (3+1) is more than 3. If the game ends with a score of 1-2, then the client receives the bet amount back to his account (3=3). If the match ended with a score of 2-0, then the player loses the bet (2<3).
