What does Asian Handicap +1.25 / -1.25 Mean?

An Asian handicap +/-1.25 is a quarter line handicap tha🐠t starts off the favourite team on a deficit of 1.25 goals and the underdog on a surplus of the same number of goals. The idea behind the quarter line is t▨hat it constitutes an each-way bet that splits between two intervals. In other words, the 1.25 Asian handicap is a split bet between the 1 and 1.5 handicap lines.

Here’s an example for context:

Draws are not a feasible outcome where Asian handicapping is concerned. So whenever the outcome is tied with the handicap line, it i♐s considered a ‘push.’
