In the 2012-13 Barclays Premier League season, for example, the average time of the first goal was the 30th minute. You can narrow your betting even further by reading more into the statistics, which reveal that 33.9% of first goals came before the 15th minute - with just over one third of all goals coming in the vital starting minutes, it might be a good option to focus your resources on the 0-10 and 10-20 minute markets.

 

As exhilarating as a late goal can be, the stats speak for themselves in terms of where the smart money should be placed in this market. The Premiership first goal average time overwhelmingly favours the first half, with a huge 77.7% of goals coming in the first 45 minutes of the game, so if you're looking to achieve a bit of extra value in this market, it's worth opting for teams who traditionally score outside the pressure cooker of the closing period.
