[00:02] video, I gave a theory on how to use the league table to analyze for more than one goal using the goals scored and goals conceded statistics by dividing each by the number of games played to find the average. But I've now
[00:15] broad and full of mistakes and it doesn't work in every scenario. Don't blame me. That was the best I could do at the time. this may seem a bit late for those that only trade with European football, but I
[00:29] might not have the time to upload this next season and it's also going to be be sharing in the next video. You're going to want to permanently use during it. Please note that everything I'll be
[00:43] saying in this video is my opinion, not the ultimate truth. experiences of losing and winning. I'm not forcing them on anyone, so feel free to apply them or discard them completely. And as always, don't forget
[00:56] to gamble responsibly. First, according to the general strategy I gave before, if two teams happen to have an average of at least one goal scored and conceded played, it automatically qualifies for over 1.5. But things are a little more
[01:11] complicated than that and we'll come back to this later. One of the scenarios that doesn't fit the old strategy is when you have two If two struggling clubs do not have close to the same goals as their games
[01:24] played, but have far too many goals conceded and over 1.5 result is still very possible. For example, in a match between two teams that after 15 games have scored nine goals and conceded 30 and the other has scored eight goals and
[01:40] conceded 25, the chances of over 1.5 goals are around 85%. This is because both teams are poor defensively and have still managed to score a decent number of goals despite playing against stronger teams. And
[01:54] since conceding is not a problem for either side, there's a high chance their own level. Take note though, before you apply this, make sure the goals scored is at least moderate, not totally poor. Also, in a situation where
[02:08] the higher team has a good number of goals scored and just enough conceded of goals scored with lots of goals conceded, the chances of more than one goal are also high. Another scenario is between two top teams or two teams
[02:23] fighting for the same position. For instance, in a match between two teams with very few points between them fighting at the top of the table, whether it's first versus second, first and third, second and fourth and so on.
[02:36] As long as they are that close, the chances of over 1.5 goals become reduced. Even if team one has 100 goals scored and 28 conceded and team two has 95 goals scored and 33 conceded in 30
[02:49] games, the more similar the stats, the lower the chances. Top performing teams that know what they are doing can actually be a disadvantage sometimes. My previous games produce goals consistently and make sure both or at
[03:04] least one of them have been scoring and conceding in their most recent games. As for the top clubs, make sure the hype around the match isn't too high, especially in one where positions could switch after the game, particularly
[03:16] during mid or late season. This also applies a little for mid-table teams, but it's not as strict as with the top ones because mid-table teams are not as rigid. They tend to be more flexible when it comes to scoring and conceding.
[03:29] teams have almost the same number of goals scored and conceded as their games played or just a few above. This is common amongst teams that are neither top nor bottom. In the last video, I said this type of situation
[03:43] qualifies for an over 1.5 pick, but I later discovered something about it. inconsistent. The fact that they averaged exactly one goal scored and one goal conceded per game doesn't mean they
[03:56] scored one and conceded one every game. They are the type that produce 0-0 one game, two to one in the next and 0-1 after that. When you have this kind of situation, over 1.5 can be very unlikely.
[04:10] So if you want to risk it, you have to consider previous head-to-head games and the last five matches and only go ahead if you get a positive result from both. But in my opinion, the more of this type you risk, the more one or two cuts ruin
[04:23] your bet. The summary of this analysis is simple. A lot of goals conceded and at least a moderate scoring ability is the key. There's also a situation I've noticed at the end of the season. Like I've always
[04:35] different. In big gap fixtures, especially in non-top 10 leagues, small teams that know they can't go toe-to-toe with a superior side often do everything to prevent them from scoring while also
[04:49] being bad at scoring themselves. In the top leagues, a team like Inter Milan could be strong enough to break through Genoa's defense and put in two goals or But most non-top leagues lack that quality. So don't be surprised when a
[05:02] third position team that has nothing to lose is still playing 0-0 the 70th minute against a relegation-bound team. A few tips for you. Once more than half the season has been played, it becomes necessary to stop
[05:14] depending solely on the league table and check the recent form, which is the last five matches. At the beginning of the season, almost table, except when you run into the inconsistent teams we just talked about.
[05:29] As for previous head-to-head performances, I think most punters let this info determine almost everything. Even if the current stats are showing that goals are going to be difficult, as long as they see an over 1.5 result in
[05:41] four out of five previous head-to-head matches, they automatically go for over I'm not saying this information is useless. I just think bettors are giving 80% weight to previous game history and 20%
[05:55] to current stats when it should be the other way around. For a more in-depth breakdown of what I've learned about over 1.5, make sure you grab my book giving you the best leagues I know for over 1.5 and explaining exactly how
