What is Asian Handicap Betting?
Updated over 2 months ago

Asian Handicap allows you to wager on a team with specific points added or deducted, balancing the odds when one team is heavily favored or trailing.

When you place a bet, the handicap line is used to adjust the final score of the period for which you wagered. This adjustment is applied to determine the outcome of your bet.

For example: To explain the -1.5/+1.5 handicap line, we will use the Brazilian Serie A match between Cruzeiro and Juventude.

When placing a bet on Cruzeiro with a -1.5 handicap line at x2.5 odds:

That team must win the match by at least 2 goals for your bet to succeed.

If you place a bet on Juventude with a +1.5 handicap line at x1.51 odds:

Juventude must either win, tie, or lose the match by no more than 1 goal for you to win your bet.
