Thx for the invite @costanza. I have never even seen these Asian Betting Lines before. I took one look at them and said to myself..."Self, this is going to take entirely too long to try to digest what all these numbers mean, so let's just table that for another day."
But I think I have now at least figured out what the numbers mean, and now I can actually translate to what I think is going to go down this weekend - with my commentary of course, because...well...I just had to...
I'm probably not playing the odds right, as far as the payouts play into things. But, hey, I'm taking a shot!
Thanks for your patience with me, and let me know if I miss something.
Once you get these handicaps they are really easy to understand, they just require some initial mental effort.
Your bets are noted, thanks and good luck !

Quick question I see you have put the handicaps in the sheet . So we can only pick one option so for example as your example states either Swansea +1.25 or Swansea 2.5 , with the second option favouring Man Utd (went to llok up link for asian handicaps and it doesnt work ). As always I will run my predictions and let you know
This is how you read the numbers on Swansea - Man United
+1.25 = handicap on home team (so Swansea +1.25)
2.00 = odds on home team handicap (so Swansea +1.25 @ 2.0 with a 1-1 score will win +1.00 units)
1.925 = odds on away team handicap (so Manchester -1.25 @ 1.925 with a 0-2 score will win +0.925 units)
2.5 = the total handicap Line (so 0-0 1-0 0-1 1-1 = under bigger scores go over this line)
1.892 = odds on Over (so over 2.5 @ 1.892 with 1-2 score will win +0.892 units)
2.03 = odds on Under (so under 2.5 @ 2.03 with 1-1 score will win +1.03 units)
Thanks again dude sorry to always bother you with dumb questions
No problem, I know these asian handicaps can be a bit confusing.
