Betting exchanges let you bet on goal minutes for when you judge a goal may get scored. It’s usual for them to offer lay odds around 6.0 –6.8 that there will be no goal scored in the opening 10 minutes of a match.

This can be a risky strategy, but if you follow this method you might still have a tiny risk but it’s rare you will go more than 2 matches in a row that this strategy doesn’t work.

Strategy 1 Steps

  1. Only Live televised matches qualify
  2. Home and Away teams placed within backing odds range of 1.5, 30 to 60 minutes before kick off. (eg Spurs 2.5 vs QPR 1.95 => is 2.5-1.95 = 5.5; so match qualifies)
  3. Lay the bet of a goal in the first 10 minutes

Strategy 2 Steps

  1. List ALL televised games on any TV network in order of kick-off time
  2. If matches start at the same time use the subtraction method to place them in order. (eg two matches starting at 12:30pm using the subtraction method match A is 3.5, match B is 4.0; match B is placed before match A in order)
  3. Follow the matches from the kick-off times. You are watching for the match that has a goal in the first 10 minutes
  4. Wait until the match with the goal in first 10 minutes occurs
  5. At this point this is your notice to place a lay bet on the next match in the sequence of matches.
  6. If no match on the list for that day results in a goal in 1-10 minutes, do not lay any matches. Wait for the match with a goal in the first 10 minutes.

Strategy 2 uses the law of averages that a goal in the next match inside 10 minutes is unlikely, given how many matches are in the sequence.
