In betting shops all around the UK, punters who love to have a physical betting slip in their hands now have a new Saturday favourite and that is the Both Teams To Score (BTTS) coupon.

Watching football matches over the weekend and ticking off when each of your selections has scored is now a recognised casual betting pastime in pubs and homes around the country and really has taken off in a big way. The big draw is the fact that the end result is not important, so long as your teams have netted at least once.

What Is ‘Both Teams To Score’ Betting?

The BTTS bet could be simpler really. A full coupon of football matches is offered by the bookmaker with a simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’ option. If you believe a team will win to ‘nil’, or maybe that neither team will score then you are betting on ‘no’, i.e. you do not think both teams will score.

If you believe both teams will get on the score sheet at least once, regardless of the result or final score, then you are betting ‘yes’ which is usually a shorter price than ‘no’.

What Is The Advantage Of Betting On ‘Both Teams To Score’?

This bet has become increasingly popular as punters are not reliant on either side in a game getting a positive result, so long as both teams score at least one goal.

On many occasions, a game could be 1-1 after only a few minutes and so in that case the ‘yes’ bet has already been landed and punters can relax for the rest of the game knowing their bet has already won.

Can I Combine ‘Both Teams To Score’ With Another Bet?

Yes and the most popular way to do this is to use the match results and BTTS odds together. In other words, you could back Real Madrid to beat Manchester United and both teams to score.

Should your team win but the game ends 2-0, you lose. Likewise should both teams score but your team does not win then again, you lose. However a typical 2-1 scoreline for example would prove to be successful.
