Two Key Concepts to Know Before Betting on Football
- Asian Handicap
-
Asian Handicap is a handicapping system where one team is given a virtual goal advantage or deficit for betting purposes, eliminating the possibility of a draw. For example, if Selangor FC is given a -0.5 handicap against Johor DT, Selangor must win by at least one goal for the bet to pay out. If the match ends in a draw or Johor wins, anyone who backed Selangor (-0.5) loses. This is the most popular betting format in Malaysia and across Southeast Asia because it always produces a clear outcome — win or lose — with no risk of a half-refund.
Example: Team A -0.5 means Team A must win for the bet to succeed.
- Over/Under Goals
-
Over/Under is a market type where you predict whether the total goals scored in a match will be more than (Over) or fewer than (Under) the line set by the platform. For example, if the line is set at 2.5 goals and the match ends 2–1 (3 goals total), those who bet Over win. If the final score is 1–0 or 0–0 (0 or 1 goal total), those who bet Under win. This market is ideal for users who want to place a bet without having to pick a winner outright.
Example: Over 2.5 goals means the match must produce 3 or more goals.
