Wednesday 6th December – Celtic v Hibernian – Celtic to score first

Hibernian have conceded the opening goal on 12 of their most recent 13 Premiership visits to Celtic Park, so our first team to score predictions include the hosts. What’s more, the Glasgow giants have taken a 1-0 lead in six of their last eight home matches at this level.

Thursday 7th December – PSV Eindhoven v Heerenveen – PSV Eindhoven to score first

Team to score first

A first team to score tip or bet is when you predict that one team will score the first goal in a game. If they do, your bet’s a winner. If the opposition score first, or the game finishes 0-0 and so no team scores first, then your bet will lose.

This market works really well for building accumulators, as the individual odds are generally quite low (similar to WDW market) and all it takes to win is one goal in the right net so it produces real excitement watching the green ticks pile up. That does mean you have to pick carefully as one wrong move could see the acca come crashing down, so it’s important to find the best first team to score predictions.

What does team to score first betting mean?

Simply, which team will score first in a game. You simply bet on the team you think will score first during 90 mins. If you are correct you win your bet.
