Understanding what an Asian handicap is in football can be tricky at first. The market uses goal adjustments rather than traditional win, draw, or lose outcomes, which is why the numbers often raise questions.
Asian handicap is a football betting market designed to remove the draw as a possible outcome. It does this by applying a virtual head start or deficit to one of the teams before the bet is settled. The final result is then adjusted using that handicap.
You will commonly see Asian handicap markets across football betting and other sports betting markets, particularly where matches are closely balanced.
