About 1X2
1X2 is easy to understand, where there are three possible outcomes for any specific match and each code correlates to a straightforward outcome.
1 would equal the home side to win, X would mean the result would be a draw and finally, 2 would indicate that the visitors would come away with the victory in the game.
An example of this would be:
Leicester City vs Manchester United
1 4.10 X 3.70 2 1.88
This indicates that each outcome of the game would have different odds, depending on which sides are matching up.
EPL stats this season
When looking at the data from this season, there are certain sides that perform particularly well either home or away, which makes your life easier when deciding who to back.
For example, Aston Villa sit fifth in the form table so far in terms of home results, but are 11th when playing on the road, which means statistically speaking, they would be a side to avoid when playing away from home.
When looking at the stats for ‘X’, there are specific teams who are worthy of backing, for example Everton have drawn roughly 43% of their games so far, while Southampton have only drawn three of their 28 league fixtures.

Why the market is so popular?
For the casual player, this market is by far the most popular, largely due to how clear it is by having just three possible outcomes and it’s black and white nature when checking if you have a winner or not.
The 1X2 market adds an enjoyable edge that other markets may not provide, because as well as cheering on your club as a fan, you can also cheer on a side if you have the potential to win big by another side earning the victory.
1X2 offers great excitement, because in a game that you may not have had much prior interest in, you can now pick a winner and sit back to hopefully watch your selection come in.
