UNDER 8.5 GOALS DEFINITION

What does Under 8.5 Goals mean?

In sports betting Under 8.5 Goals is an example of a total market you might see when betting on Ice Hockey or Soccer. When betting on the Under market you need the total goals of a game to stay below 8.5 for your bet to win.

For example if you placed a bet on an outcome to go Under 8.5 Goals you require the end result of an ice hockey or soccer game to have a total (combined score of both teams) less than or equal to 8.0 for your bet to win.

Sports bettors can also choose to bet on the Overs, which requires the opposite outcome to the Unders bet where the total would need to go Over 8.5 Goals for the over bet to win.
