The difference between these two markets is that the “More than (1), More than (2), etc.” market allows you to be reimbursed under certain conditions.
By betting on “More than (2.5) goals”, at least 3 goals must be scored in the match, if not your bet is losing.
By betting on “More than (2) goals”, you also need 3 goals to win your bet, but if only 2 goals are scored, your stake is reimbursed. However, if no goals or only one goal is scored, your bet is losing.
Let’s look at a concrete example. The Standard de Liège - KAA Gent match finishes with a score of 0-2.
- If you’ve bet “More than (2) goals”, your bet will be reimbursed.
- If you have bet “More than (2.5) goals”, your bet is losing.
