What is the "Handicap" market?

In the Handicap markets, a lead -of points, goals, points, etc-  is given to the team that is considered the weakest in a match. In a European Handicap, unlike the Asian, a draw is also possible.

Example of an Arsenal vs Dortmund match:

An "Arsenal -1" bet proves correct if Arsenal wins with a difference of two goals or more.

A "Tie On Handicap -1" wins if Arsenal wins with just one goal difference, and "Dortmund +1" wins in the event of a draw or if Dortmund wins (as a 2X double chance).

Respectively, the "Arsenal +1" bet wins in the event of a draw or Arsenal's win (as a 1X double chance).

A "Tie on Handicap +1" wins with Dortmund's victory by just one goal, and "Dortmund -1" wins if Dortmund wins with a difference of two goals and more.
