Asian handicap settlement explained

Apply the line to the score

Asian handicap adjusts the team's score before settling the bet. A -1 selection needs a win by two or more goals to win in full.

A one-goal win at -1 returns the stake: 2-1 becomes 1-1 after the adjustment. It is a refund, not a winning bet. A draw or defeat loses.

Half-goal lines

At -0.5, any win wins the bet. At -1.5, a win by at least two goals is required. A one-goal win at -1.5 loses.

A +1.5 selection wins if the backed team wins, draws or loses by one goal. It loses if that team is beaten by two or more.

Quarter lines split the stake

A -0.75 bet splits equally between -0.5 and -1. After a one-goal win, half wins and half is refunded. A draw loses both halves.

A -1.25 bet splits between -1 and -1.5. After a one-goal win, half is refunded and half loses. A two-goal win wins both halves.

Check the exact market

A three-way European handicap includes a handicap-draw outcome; it is not settled like a two-way Asian handicap.
