The bet “Team 1 to Win to Nil – Yes/No” means that the first (home) team wins the match without conceding a single goal. This market is most commonly available in football (soccer) and, less frequently, in hockey — typically offering high odds due to its difficulty.
Possible outcomes
When placing a “Team 1 to Win to Nil – Yes/No” bet, the following outcomes are possible:
Bet “Team 1 to Win to Nil – Yes”
Win: The bet wins if the home team scores at least one goal and keeps a clean sheet — that is, does not concede any goals.
Example: In the 15th round of the English Premier League 2020/21, Leeds defeated Burnley 1–0. Since Leeds won and did not concede, the “Team 1 to Win to Nil – Yes” bet was successful.
Loss: The bet loses if the away team scores, if the match ends in a draw, or if the away team wins.
Example: In the 13th round of the German Bundesliga, Freiburg beat Hertha 4–1. Since Hertha managed to score once, the “Team 1 to Win to Nil – Yes” bet lost.
Bet “Team 1 to Win to Nil – No”
Win: The “Team 1 to Win to Nil – No” bet wins if the home team wins but allows at least one goal — for example, 2–1, 3–1, or 3–2.
Example: In the same Freiburg vs. Hertha match (4–1), the “Team 1 to Win to Nil – No” bet won because the away team scored.
Loss: The “Team 1 to Win to Nil – No” bet loses if the home team wins and the away team fails to score.
Example: In the Leeds vs. Burnley match (1–0), the “Team 1 to Win to Nil – No” bet lost because Burnley did not score.
Both “Team 1 to Win to Nil – Yes” and “Team 1 to Win to Nil – No” bets lose if the away team wins or if the match ends in a draw.
Refund: The bet is refunded if the match is canceled or declared void.
