The main purpose of handicapping is to make the strengths of both sides appear equal, regardless of the actual difference in their abilities. The adjustment of handicaps aims to make the odds more attractive when compared to the odds of a tie between the home and away teams. Additionally, eliminating the possibility of a tie enhances the chances of either the home or away team winning. Handicaps can be categorized into three main types: level, half-goal, and one-goal. In these single-bet scenarios, various combinations or modifications can be applied to create sub-bets. Let's explore the playing methods for each type.
1. Level Handicap - "Draw No Bet" with a Refund Option:
- Used when the teams have similar strengths.
- Betting on either the home or away team to win.
- Offers a refund if the match ends in a tie.
2. Half-Goal Handicap - Weaker Team Given a 0.5 Goal Advantage:
- Applied when there is a slight difference in strengths between teams.
- The stronger team gives the weaker team a half-goal advantage.
- Adjusted final scores determine the winner.
- Provides lower risk due to the possibility of a refund in case of a draw.
3. One-Goal Handicap - Significant Strength Difference:
- Employed when there is a clear difference in strengths.
- The stronger team gives the weaker team a one-goal advantage.
- Requires the stronger team to win by at least two goals for a bet to succeed.
4. Split Handicap - Dividing the Wager into Two Equal Parts:
- A variation where the wager is split into two equal parts.
- Each part is placed on different handicap options, providing flexibility.
