Handicap Home +38.75
Handicap Home +38.75 means that when you place this bet, you are giving a 38.75 goal advantage to the home team.
In essence, the home team starts the game with a significant lead, and they must maintain that lead or not lose by more than 38 goals for the bet to be successful.
This handicap is unique because it offers a considerable advantage to the home team, making it a challenging bet for the opposing team to cover. With such a substantial goal head start, the home team has a much higher chance of winning, drawing, or losing by a small margin. It is a high-risk, high-reward handicap that can lead to substantial payouts if the outcome is in your favor.
Let’s consider a $100 bet with odds of 1.95. We’ll explore the various outcomes of this bet with the Handicap Home +38.75.
Win
- Home team wins, draws, or loses by fewer than 38 goals. In this scenario, when the home team maintains its lead or loses by less than 38 goals, the bet wins. This means that you will receive a payout based on the odds.
- Possible outcomes: 41:25, 30:30, 37:49.
- Payout = $50 * 1.95 (odds for 38.5 goals) + $50 * 1.95 (odds for 39 goals) = $97.5 + $97.5 = $195.
Half Lose
- Home team loses by exactly 39 goals. If the home team loses by exactly 39 goals, it is considered a half loss. In this case, you will receive a partial payout based on the odds for the portion of the bet that won.
- Possible outcomes: 13:52, 9:48, 20:59.
- Payout = $50 * 0 (odds for 38.5 goals) + $50 * 1 (odds for 39 goals) = $50.
Lose
- Home team loses by 40 or more goals. If the home team loses by 40 or more goals, the bet is considered a loss. In this scenario, you won’t receive any payout.
- Possible outcomes: 12:67, 29:101, 43:84.
- Payout = $50 * 0 (odds for 38.5 goals) + $50 * 0 (odds for 39 goals) = $0.
