On this page you will get all our both teams to score football betting tips for today, tonight and tomorrow all for free, you do not even have to pay a dime to get it.

At Eketips, we know that most football fans don't always ask who will win the game. Many times, they try to ask something very different and simple and the question is, will it be a 1-1 draw or will it be BTTS?

If you've ever looked at a football betting slip and seen BTTS, you may have wondered what it even stands for, and if it is as good a betting market as it seems.

BTTS means both teams to score. We need the selected game to have both teams score at least one goal before the end of the normal match time in a BTTS Yes pick. Scores such as 1-1, 2-1, 3-2 or 4-3 can all win a BTTS Yes, pick. 1-0, 2-0 or 0-0 can't.

Sounds easy but selecting a BTTS pick isn't as straightforward as looking at two teams and saying, Yes, these teams can score.

We monitor this market very carefully and, before we select any matches for our users, we incorporate football statistics, team scoring tendencies, defensive figures, league information and match analysis. 

We do not tell you that any football prediction is a sure thing because it is not. What we promise to do is present you with reliable, factual information so that you can make the right decisions.

Similarly, the BTTS bet Is also called Goal or GG. The BTTS Yes choice wins when both teams score.

So if you are looking for BTTS tips for today, BTTS tips for today, BTTS tips from the experts or you just want to understand the market, that is why Eketips is here.

What Is BTTS?

BTTS means Both Teams To Score.

It's one of the easiest markets in football betting because you're not betting on a winner, only on whether both teams will score at some point in the game.

For example:

It doesn't matter in the end that both teams need to score. It doesn't matter who wins.

This is one of the reasons why the market is in demand. You do not have to know which team, home or away, would win in the game. You only require the both teams to score the ball.

Therefore, we advise our Eketips users to not just choose the biggest teams. A renowned team is not necessarily a BTTS choice. We want to know if there is a real chance for each side to score.

How We Predict BTTS Accurately

We don't treat BTTS as a guessing game. We begin with data, then surround the data with our knowledge of football. We look for matches where the numbers indicate that both sides have a fair chance of scoring.

Take a look at the 2026/27 league figures so far this season and you'll see that the percentage can fluctuate widely. At the time of writing, for the Footy Metrics.com data set, the Suisse Super League is at 74.1% yes BTTS, the Eerste Divisie stands at 71.1% yes, Eredivisie 69.8% and the Championship at 68.4% and some considerably lower.

We don't, after all, blindly pick out every game from a league with a high BTTS.

In fact, we travel back from the league table to the fixture itself.

First, we're interested to see if there's a viable path to goal for either team. One team might have a good attack but have an opponent who rarely misses a chance. Someone else might have an attack but be an easy target for an opponent with weak defending and struggle to see out a lead. That can make for an interesting BTTS situation.

To add to that, we review number of goals per game, clean-sheet frequency, expected goals and chance they create, defensive reliability, league overall BTTS, tactical style, attack score minus the defence score and competition type.

We wouldn't want to take a game just because it was a 3-2 last week. That is too shallow.

But rather, we ask as the alternative, are there a reason why could both teams will score?

Which League Is Best for BTTS?

The Turkish Super Lig is the best choice for both teams to score (BTTS) as 66.8% of all matches will see both teams scoring a goal. Second place is the Swiss Super League at 62% and then the German Bundesliga and the USA MLS are very high at around 60%. Both teams to score is the best betting option from these leagues as they are full of teams who attack and not many teams who can defend to keep a clean sheet in every game.

BTTS and Win Tips

A BTTS and Win bet is a wager that both teams in a football game will score and that one team will win. The minimum winning score for the bets for the teams you pick will be 2-1, 3-1, 3-2, and so forth. 

So if your team wins by 1-0, 2-0, you've lost the bet as they didn't score. If they draw 1-1 or 2-2, again, your bet will be lost as they have not won.

This is naturally more difficult than normal BTTS because you are adding additional criteria. We therefore provide both teams to score and win tips away from our standard BTTS bets.

Where a match has excellent BTTS stats, but no significant reason to suggest one side will win, we would prefer to leave the choice as BTTS, rather than forcing it into BTTS & Win. That small distinction can prevent unnecessary mistakes.

What is the difference between Both Teams To Score Total and Over 2.5

BTTS (Both Teams To Score) and over 2.5 are two different football betting markets that keep separate tracks of goals scored.

If you're betting on BTTS you'll need both teams to score in the game (i.e. 1-1, 2-1 or 2-2) irrespective of the total number of goals scored. That means Team A has scored and Team B has scored.

But over 2.5 goals is an over/under bet, with you winning the stake if a total of three or more goals are scored in the match (including the winning team). If you, for example, lose 2-1 or 4-0, you win the stake.

The difference here is that BTTS is about both teams to score (both need to score), whereas over 2.5 is about how many goals are scored overall (so over 2.5 means 3 or more goals in the game even if one team scored all of them, e.g. 3-0).

So, 

You can only combine the markets when the data justifies two conditions.

Can Both Teams Score in Both Halves?

Yes, both teams can score in both halves (BTTS - Both Halves) and it is one of the football betting markets you will see in most bookmakers.

Teams to score in both halves is much more demanding than ordinary BTTS that you know.

The bet will be won if there is at least one goal scored by Team A or Team B in both the first half and second half.

First Half Scorers: Team A will have scored + Team B will have scored (eg. 1-1 HT)

Second Half Lines: Team A goals + Team B goals (eg 2-2 or any combination of the second half, total goals at full time being a high scoring game such as 3-3).

The actual score would have been 2-2, but the important thing was that the teams both scored in each period.

It can be a good market but we wouldn't go about this as a normal BTTS though. There's so many more variables that it needs a higher level of proof.

How Do You Place a Both Teams To Score Sports Bet?

First, find a bookmaker that provides the market for the football game you're interested in.

Open the football section, find your match and search for a market such as Both Teams To Score, BTTS, GG/NG, or Teams To Score.

Then you decide whether you think both teams will net.

For example, if you had selected BTTS Yes and the match finished 2-1, you will have won the bet as both teams scored in the game. If it ends 2-0, it will lose because there was just one scorer.

This is a mistake made by some newcomers to the sport. When you are betting on BTTS you do not mean that both teams score the same amount of goals. 

For instance, a team can score four times and another just once. So, 4-1 can be BTTS Yes.

The Teams to Score column in Sportybet football markets shows the Both teams option. This will give you an idea of what the market looks like when using a betting slip.

Eketips is not telling you that a bet has to win every single day, what we are doing is helping you understand why a selection might be worth a look in and what information lies behind the selection.

How to Use BTTS Tips Properly

BTTS tips are guide only. So, if you decide to place a bet on it, use a fixed sum that you can risk and never increase your stake just because your previous choice lost.

We also recommend keeping a personal record. So write down, date, match, selection, stake, result and reason for selection

Once you've been 50 or 100 bets it will be clear to you what your own betting characteristics actually are.
