If a team has 50-50% chances of scoring over or under 1.5 points, how do you calculate what are their chances of scoring exactly 0,1,2 or 3 points? And how do you calculate the chances of scoring over/under 2.5 points? (The team can only score 0,1,2,3,4 and so on, no decimals)
Later edit: The chances for team to score 1.5 points comes from a match were the expected total number of goals is 2.5 (50%-50% chances of both teams to score over or under 2.5) and team A is better than team B with 0.5 points. If this helps.

If all you know is that the chances of scoring under or over $1.5$ points, then there is no way to know what the chance of scoring exactly $0$ points is.
For example, the two cases:
both result in the team having a 50-50 chance of scoring over or under $1.5$ points.
Basically, you want to calculate $p_0, p_1,p_2,p_3\dots$ while all you know is that
There are infinitelly many solutions to the above set of equations.
