Guide: Both Teams To Score & Win

Guide: Both Teams To Score & Win

Also known as “Goal Rush” or “Match Result & BTTS,” this market combines two popular bets into one. This guide explains how it works, what to look for, and the risks involved.

What is it?
You are betting on a specific team to win the match AND for both teams to score at least one goal. For example, winning scores like 2-1, 3-1, or 4-2.

How It Works

To win this bet, two things must happen in the same match:

  1. The team you select must win (Home or Away).
  2. Both teams must score a goal.

If the team wins 1-0 or 2-0, the bet loses because both teams did not score. If the game ends 1-1, the bet loses because your team did not win. Roughly 1 in every 5 matches ends with the home team winning and both teams scoring.

Common Strategies

While no outcome is guaranteed, experienced bettors often look for specific scenarios when researching this market:

1. Good Teams Playing Away Top teams (like Real Madrid or Barcelona) are often favourites even when playing away. However, home teams often find the net at least once in front of their own fans. Backing a strong favourite to win away while conceding can offer better odds than a simple win bet.
2. Strong Attack, Weak Defence Some teams have a habit of going 3-0 up and then “taking their foot off the gas,” leading to a late consolation goal for the opponent. This makes the “Win & BTTS” market a consideration for teams with elite attacks but lapses in concentration.
3. Know Your League Research is key. Looking at stats for goals scored and conceded over the last 20 games can help identify teams that score consistently but rarely keep clean sheets.

Pros and Cons

Pro: Higher Odds
Combining two outcomes usually offers longer odds than backing a team just to win.
Pro: Stays Alive
Even if your team is winning comfortably, the bet remains active until the final whistle if you are just waiting for the opponent to grab a consolation goal.
Con: Harder to Win
You need two specific events to happen. A dominant 3-0 win for your team is great for the league table, but a loss for this specific bet.
Con: Accumulator Risk
Combining these bets into an accumulator increases odds rapidly (e.g., 40/1 for three games), but the risk of one leg failing is significantly higher.

Hypothetical Example

Note: This is a fictional example to demonstrate how the bet settles.

Fixture: Arsenal vs Spurs
Selection: Arsenal to Win & Both Teams To Score
Hypothetical Odds: ~3/1 (Single Bet)

Scenario A (Result 2-1): Arsenal wins, Spurs scored. BET WINS.
Scenario B (Result 3-0): Arsenal wins, Spurs did not score. BET LOSES.
Scenario C (Result 1-1): Both scored, but Arsenal didn’t win. BET LOSES.

A Note on Accumulators

A “Goal Rush” accumulator involves combining several of these selections into one bet. While the potential returns can be high—sometimes 130/1 for four matches—the likelihood of winning decreases with every match added. It is generally recommended to keep accumulators small (4-5 selections maximum) to manage risk.

Glossary

  • BTTS: “Both Teams To Score.” A market where you bet on whether both teams will find the net.
  • Goal Rush: A term used by some bookmakers (often on weekend coupons) for a BTTS & Win accumulator.
  • Accumulator (Acca): A single bet containing multiple selections. All selections must win for the bet to pay out.
  • WDW: “Win Draw Win”—the standard market where you pick Home Win, Draw, or Away Win.
