Understanding The First Half Goals Market

As people looking for more and more ways to find winning betting markets the first half goals interest has grown and grown.

Whilst existing goals bets like both teams to score & over 2.5 goals have long been popular football betting markets - first half markets have started to gain popularity as people get their hands on more and more data.

First half goals betting is where you look to predict whether a goal will be scored in the first half of the match. It can also be known as over 0.5 first half goals or in some circles it is simply shortened to FHG (First Half Goal).

On this page we will keep our focus on the first half goals tips which relates to over 0.5 first half goals - but if you are looking for longer markets we also have a page for over 1.5 first half goals tips.

For your first half goals tips to win you need your selected game to not be 0-0 by half-time.

One of the great things about this market is the strike rate can be very good - when looking at the current stats for the English Premier League as an example, we can see that 76% of games have seen a first half goal so far this season!

Due to these being high strike rate bets the bookies cover themselves well in this market by lowering the odds available on selections.

The average odds tends to fall somewhere between 1.33 and 1.62 - with the majority of games coming at the lower end of that scale.

The most commonly seen odds are 1.33 and 1.36 which gives you a good idea of how often these bets must win.
