Asian Handicap

Asian Handicap is a betting system used in sports, primarily soccer, designed to level the playing field between teams of differing skill levels. It assigns a virtual advantage or disadvantage (measured in goals) to one team, making the match more balanced for betting purposes. For example, if Team A has a -1 handicap, they must win by at least two goals for a bet on them to pay off, while Team B starts with a +1 advantage. This approach reduces the likelihood of a draw, providing more varied betting options and potentially higher payouts.
