True Odds of Goals Scored


Recommended Posts

The average percentage of goals scored in 16-30 minute is about 16% for that period. But this is calculated from all goals scored. Since there are multiple goals in a game, Im wondering if anyone knows the true odds of a goal being scored in a single game during this time period? Or am I wrong and its still 16% even though there are usually 2.5 goals in a game?

Re: True Odds of Goals Scored Actually thought about this recently. On average there's very close to an average 2.5 goals scored a game in England. If you know that 16% of goals are scored in a certain time frame, then 0.16*2.5 is the % chance of a goal being scored in that period (40%).
