Both teams to score means each side gets at least one goal. The bet is called BTTS, or GG if you’re using a bookmaker that prefers it. If both sides score, yes wins. If one side finishes on zero, no wins.
This page lists tomorrow’s matches with a predicted score. The predictions come from an outside provider and we show them as published. Underneath, we look at what usually decides the bet, which is not the favourite but the underdog, and what that means for the scores you’ll see.

How the bet settles
A BTTS bet is settled on 90 minutes and added time. Extra time and shoot-outs are ignored, and goals in them don’t count towards either side. Own goals are usually counted for the team that benefits. If a match is abandoned most bookmakers void the bet unless the result was already settled, so read the rules where you play.
The underdog decides the bet
Most people look at the attacking side of a BTTS bet. The thing that matters more is which team is least likely to score. In most matches that’s the underdog. We split 14,617 league matches (July 2024 to October 2026) into types using the bookmakers’ average prices, and counted how often each side was held scoreless.
| Type of match | Matches | Home side scoreless | Away side scoreless | Both scored |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strong home favourite (65%+) | 1,293 | 6% | 47% | 51% |
| Moderate home favourite (50% to 65%) | 3,205 | 15% | 38% | 54% |
| Even match | 4,465 | 26% | 27% | 55% |
| Away favourite (55%+) | 941 | 43% | 10% | 52% |
In a match with a strong home favourite, the home side scores 94% of the time. The away side draws a blank 47% of the time. That one number is the whole story: BTTS is roughly a coin flip, because it comes down to whether the underdog scores.
The match type barely moves the headline rate. BTTS was 51% with a strong home side and 52% with a strong away side, and 55% in even matches. What changes is who is likely to fail.
Backing BTTS no
When people back BTTS no they’re backing a group of scores in which one side finishes on zero. Overall, 46% of matches were a no. These are the scores inside it:
| Score | Share of BTTS no |
|---|---|
| 1-0 | 22% |
| 0-1 | 16% |
| 0-0 | 15% |
| 2-0 | 14% |
| 0-2 | 10% |
| 3-0 | 9% |
Together those six cover 87% of all BTTS no results. A 1-0 is the commonest, and if you’re sure a match will be low-scoring, a 0-0 shouldn’t be forgotten, because it makes up 15% of the no group.
What the commonest scores say
The same groups show something useful for correct score. When the home side was a strong favourite, the three commonest scores were 2-0 (11.9%), 3-0 (11.8%) and 1-0 (11.3%). All three are BTTS no, and together they cover 35% of those matches. The commonest yes score in that group, 2-1, came in at only 10.1%.
So the prediction that looks safest for a big home favourite, a comfortable win, is also a prediction that the other side won’t score. If you like a 2-0 or a 3-0 in the table, you’re also saying no to BTTS. That’s worth checking against the BTTS figure before you decide.
Which leagues lean towards no
Most leagues are slightly in favour of yes. A few are the other way:
| League | BTTS no |
|---|---|
| Primeira Liga | 51% |
| Greek Super League | 51% |
| Serie A | 51% |
| Ligue 2 | 49% |
| League Two | 49% |
At the other end, the Eredivisie (BTTS yes 61%), 2. Bundesliga (60%) and Bundesliga (59%) are the most generous leagues for both teams scoring. If tomorrow’s list includes a Portuguese or Italian match, a BTTS yes carries less than an even chance.
Using tomorrow’s list
Start by finding the matches with a clear favourite and underdog. Ask whether the underdog has scored in its recent games, which you can check on any results page, because the table can’t tell you that. Then look at the predicted score. If both numbers are above zero, the prediction is yes. If one is zero, it’s a no.
Next, compare it with the league. A predicted yes in the Eredivisie is the base case. A predicted yes in Serie A deserves more care. Finally, check the team news on the morning of the match, because a missing striker on the underdog’s side is the quickest way for a yes to turn into a no.
Five rules we follow
- Find the underdog. BTTS depends on whether it scores.
- Look for an underdog that scores. In even matches each side was held scoreless about 26% of the time, which is why yes landed 55%.
- Don’t back yes on a big home favourite. The away side was scoreless 47% of the time.
- Respect 0-0. It’s 15% of BTTS no results and 7% of all matches.
- Price your bet. At 54% yes the fair odds are about 1.85, and at 46% no they’re about 2.17.
Common mistakes
The first is looking only at how many goals a team scores. A prolific home attack tells you nothing about whether the away side gets one.
The second is assuming BTTS yes in a “big” match. Big clubs often face smaller sides, and those are the matches where one side gets none. In our groups, the strong home favourite match had a BTTS rate of 51%.
The third is backing BTTS no in a defensive league without checking. Even in the Primeira Liga and Serie A, no wins only 51% of matches.
Questions about tomorrow’s BTTS
What does BTTS no mean? At least one team doesn’t score.
Is a 0-0 a BTTS no? Yes.
Which score decides BTTS most often? 1-1 for yes and 1-0 for no.
Do own goals count? In most bookmakers’ rules, yes, for the team that gets the goal.
Which type of match gives the most BTTS? An even match, at 55%, though the difference from the others is small.
Why is BTTS close to a coin flip? Because it hinges on one goal from the weaker side, and that’s about 50-50.
