The Half Time / Full Time (HT/FT) market offers some of the highest odds in football betting, especially if you can predict a “Reversal” (e.g., Team A loses at Half Time but wins at Full Time).
This calculator uses a statistical model to split expected goals into two halves, generating Fair Odds for all 9 possible outcomes, from the safe “1/1” to the massive longshot “2/1”.
HT/FT
How to Use the HT/FT Calculator
- Input Stats: Enter the average Expected Goals (xG) for both the Home and Away teams. (e.g., Home 1.8, Away 1.0).
- Analyze the Grid: The tool calculates the probability of every combination:
- 1/1: Home leads at HT and wins at FT.
- X/1: Draw at HT, Home wins at FT (Common in tight games).
- 2/1: Away leads at HT, Home wins at FT (The big “Comeback” bet).
- Find Value: Compare these “Fair Odds” to your bookie. If the calculator says “X/1” should be 4.50 and the bookie offers 6.00, it’s a value bet.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why are HT/FT odds higher than standard wins?
Because you must be correct twice. Predicting a win is easier than predicting when the goals will be scored. The extra risk rewards you with significantly better prices.
What is the “Draw/Win” strategy?
This strategy targets games where a favorite starts slowly against a defensive underdog. Betting “Draw/Home” (X/1) often pays 4.00+, whereas a simple Home Win might only pay 1.50.
