Over/under goals markets are among the popular betting markets. You predict the outcome on the total number of goals scored by both teams in a match. Different betting sites in South Africa offer various betting options in the over/under goals market. Some include first-half goals total, 2nd half goals total, Asian goals count, among other options. Practically, a site puts up an over/under prediction, and the player wagers that the total goals scored in the match will be more or fewer than the bookie’s offer. Traditionally, these bets hold only if the game does not end in a draw. Over/under 3.5 goals is one of the common bet markets available on most sportsbooks. Here’s a brief on what the options in this market mean.

Over 3.5 Goals Explained

When a player chooses over 3.5 goals, there has to be 3 or more goals scored to win the bet. The bet will be lost if the total goals scored is 0, 1, or 2. For example, let’s say Arsenal plays against Barcelona FC in a match and a bookie has a prediction like this;

Over 3.5 goals, 1.32

Under 3.5 goals, 2.33

If a player bets on over 3.5 goals and the total goals scored is 4 or more, he wins. His stake is multiplied by the odds given. But if both teams score 3 or fewer goals, the bet is lost.

Under 3.5 Goals Explained

Betting under 3.5 goals means a player predicts that the total goals scored will be 3 or fewer goals. If the game ends in a draw or both teams score 4 or more goals, then the bet is lost. Suppose the player bets on under 3.5 goals in the above example, and the total goals scored are 3, 2, 1, or nil, then the bet is won. The player’s stake amount is multiplied by the number of odds in that option.

Who last kicked 1000 goals?

The five players to crack 1000 goals were Tony Lockett (1360), Gordon Coventry (1299), Jason Dunstall (1254), Doug Wade (1057) and Gary Ablett senior (1031).

If Sydney superstar Lance Franklin wants to become just the sixth player in VFL/AFL history to kick 1000 goals next year, he will need to do something he has only done once before in his glittering career – kick at least 83 goals in a season. Franklin currently sits in eighth spot on the all-time list with 917 career goals - nine behind seventh-placed Essendon sharpshooter Matthew Lloyd (926) and 53 off sixth-placed Richmond legend Jack Titus (970). While it seems inevitable that the eight-time All-Australian will crack four figures, he will need to produce one of his best ever seasons next year at the age of 32 if he wants to do it in 2019. The only time Franklin kicked a minimum of 83 goals was back in 2008 when he booted 113 majors, helping guide Hawthorn to a shock premiership in the process. Franklin’s three next-best years were 2011 (82 goals), 2016 (81) and 2014 (79). Last year was the four-time Coleman Medalist’s fourth-worst year with just 57 goals to his credit. While history suggests he may just miss out on joining the 1000 club in 2019, he should overtake Lloyd and Titus and move up to sixth on the all-time list next year. The five players to crack 1000 goals were Tony Lockett (1360), Gordon Coventry (1299), Jason Dunstall (1254), Doug Wade (1057) and Gary Ablett senior (1031).
