What does head-to-head mean in soccer betting?

How it works

An H2H record lists previous meetings, often with scores, venues and competitions. The term also names a market type where you pick which of two teams or players will finish higher or score more, with ties sometimes refunded.

For example, two clubs may have produced over 2.5 goals in six of their last eight meetings. That looks like a strong trend, but if both coaches and half of each squad have changed since then, the history may say little about this weekend's match.

Treat H2H as one input among many. Give more weight to recent meetings, the same venue and similar squads. Small samples and one-off scores, such as a 5-0 in a meaningless end-of-season game, can distort the picture.
