How To Read Football Odds Asian Handicap betting
Asian Handicap is a popular form of soccer betting that levels the playing field between two teams of varying strengths.
Unlike traditional betting, which offers three possible outcomes (win, lose, or draw), Asian Handicap eliminates the possibility of a draw, ensuring that only two outcomes are possible: win or lose. Here's a deeper look into how it works:
1. The Basics
Asian Handicap assigns a goal handicap to the teams involved. The stronger team (favorite) is given a negative handicap (-0.5, -1, etc.), while the weaker team (underdog) is given a positive handicap (+0.5, +1, etc.).
The idea is to balance the teams by "handicapping" the favorite.
