How Over 0.5 Goals First Half Predictions Market Work
The over 0.5 goals first half betting market entails a market in which players predict that one of the Home team or Away team will win the first half of a match by at least one goal. The result of the match at the end of the 90 minute regulation time does not have any bearing on this market. If the player states that the Home team is going to win the first half with over 0.5 goals, any winning result for the backed Home team will see the player walk away with some handsome payouts. The only way that the punter won’t receive payouts is if the backed team loses the first half or the first half ends in a stalemate.
