Over 2 is a common market in football. Customers of betting companies bet on the number of:
In most cases, bookmakers take bets on over 2 in full-time for goals scored. A fan who made a deal on over 2, will win with 3 or more goals. If there are no goals in the match or 1 goal was scored, the betting company client loses money. In case of 2 goals, the bookmaker arranges a refund.
In hockey, there is higher productivity than in football; bookmakers offer to bet on the outcome of 1 period, not the entire match.
A total of over 2 implies that the bookmaker's client, to win a bet, expects the competitors to score at least three goals in the period.

Understanding what more than 2 goals total means is easier compared to the fractional market Over 2.5.
Novices may find it easier to understand the fractional market Over 2.5, as the bookmaker will only offer two possible outcomes for the bet, win or lose.
Over 2.5 is the opposite type of bet to Under 2.5. If the user goes for the under, they will profit if no goals are scored in the game or 1-2 goals are scored. If 3 or more goals are scored, the result will lead to a loss of the staked money.
If a bookmaker customer bets on an over than two total, the bookmaker will add a third bet settlement option - a refund. If exactly 2 goals are scored in the match, the player will not profit, but neither will they lose their staked money - the bookmaker will refund the bet amount to the user's balance.
The insurance option makes the total goals in a match over 2 a popular market in express bets. To win, the player must predict all the outcomes included in the coupon correctly. Whole markets offer more opportunities to profit from express bets.
If the bookmaker refunds an over 2 total in an express bet, the calculation reduces the final odd of the coupon, but does not result in a lost bet.
The market is famous in lines for various sports - team and individual disciplines. For example, in tennis, bookmakers offer to bet on the number of sets won in a match or game. Among statistical indicators, clients consider bets on aces, breaks, and double faults. Understanding what a total bet over two means is helped by breaking down an example.
In the semifinal match of the UK Open Tennis Championship between Carlos Alcaraz and Daniil Medvedev, a bookmaker's client placed 900 rubles over two games won in the first game by the Russian tennis player at odds of 1.55.
