What the numbers say for betting
- Gor Mahia FC matches average 2.4 goals, more than the league average of 2.0. Higher totals are why Over 2.5 is often priced short in their games.
- 0% of their games ended level (league: 40%). They rarely draw, so the 1X2 result usually settles one way or the other.
- After 5 games one result moves these numbers a lot. Use them with team form and team news, not on their own.

Gor Mahia betting example: Gor Mahia vs AFC Leopards
Say you stake (the money you bet) KSh 100 on double chance. You pick "1X", which wins if Gor Mahia win or draw.
| Pick | Odds (example odds) | Return on KSh 100 | Profit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1X – Gor Mahia win or draw | 1.35 | KSh 135.00 | KSh 35.00 |
| 1 – Gor Mahia win only | 2.20 | KSh 220.00 | KSh 120.00 |
If the match ends 2–1 to Gor Mahia, both picks win. If it ends 1–1, only 1X wins. You get KSh 100 × 1.35 = KSh 135. If AFC Leopards win, both picks lose.
Double chance pays less, but it covers the draw. Check other amounts with the payout calculator.
