In sports betting Over 2.0 Goals is an example of a total market you might see when betting on Ice Hockey or Soccer. When betting on the Over market you need the total goals of a game to exceed 2.0 for your bet to win.
If the result total of the game is exactly 2.0 goals it is known as a push, meaning the total bet results in no winner or loser. In this case the bettor will be returned the stake of their original bet but won’t be paid out as a winner.
For example if you placed a bet on an outcome to go Over 2.0 Goals you require the end result of an ice hockey or soccer game to have a total (combined score of both teams) greater than or equal to 3.0 for your bet to win.
Sports bettors can also choose to bet on the Unders, which requires the opposite outcome to the Overs bet where the total would need to go Under 2.0 Goals for the under bet to win.
