Asian Over/Under Markets Explained

Asian handicap betting is extremely popular among bettors as it can be used to simplify a match result bet. Instead of having to make a choice on a three-way market (1-X-2), you need only predict whether the match favorite will Overcome the required goal difference or not.

Asian handicaps are not limited only to match results, though, as they are frequently utilized on total goals as well. The well-known Over/Under 2.5 bet (O/U 2.5), which concerns whether three or more goals will be scored in a match, is simply one of the numerous types of match totals asian bets you can find on online betting sites.

In this guide, you will be able to find all you need to know about every Asian Over/Under market. This includes the exact way bets are settled, something that most bettors often find themselves confused with. Here is our table to help you calculate your bets:

What Is The Exact Meaning Of Asian Over/Under

The biggest difference between regular and Asian Over/Under is that your stake is distributed into two bets. It is typically split into full-goal handicaps, half-goal handicaps and quarter-goal handicaps, making betting more flexible and less risky.

However, their essence remains the same: Will there be more or fewer goals than the line offered? Regarding this, you must be extra careful as bookies tend to have other rules about them. This mostly concerns in-play wagering, where some sportsbooks count your bets from the moment they were placed.

For example, you bet on Over 2.5 Asian Total Goals to be scored in a match between Inter and Juventus, which is 1-1 at that point. There is a slight possibility that a bookmaker will settle it as won only if three goals are scored after the moment you wagered. Below, you can take a look at the ones with transparent terms on Asian Total Goals.

Let’s now dive into all popular Asian Over/Under markets separately.

Asian Over 2 meaning

Asian Over 2 is a type of goals bet where: If the match has 3 or more goals, your bet wins in full. If the match ends with exactly 2 goals, your stake is refunded (bet is void). If the match has 0 or 1 goals, your bet loses. This bet provides a safety net: a draw (push) when exactly two goals are scored, making it less risky than a standard Over 2.5 bet.

Bet	1 Goal	2 Goals	3 Goals
Asian Over 2	LOST	VOID	WON
Asian Under 2	WON	VOID	LOST

Asian Total Over 2.25 meaning

The first quarter bet we will deal with is the Asian Over/Under 2.25. Less than two goals, means that the Under bet is won and the Over 2.25 lost. More than three goals result in the Over bet winning and the Under losing entirely.

Exactly two goals mean that you'll have to split your bet into two separate ones. The Over 2.25 gets half its stakes back and wins the rest. The Under will lose half the stakes and get a cashback of the rest.

Bet	1 Goal	2 Goals	3 Goals
Asian Over 2.25	LOST	½ LOST - ½ VOID	WON
Asian Under 2.25	WON	½ WON - ½ VOID	LOST

Asian Over 2.5 meaning

The most common match totals goal-line found on every online betting site. If three or more goals are scored, you win the Over bet and lose the Under 2.5. If there are less than three goals, the opposite applies.

Bet	1 Goal	2 Goals	3 Goals
Asian Over 2.5	LOST	LOST	WON
Asian Under 2.5	WON	WON	LOST

Asian Total Over 2.75 meaning

This is another quarter-goal Asian Over/Under market. If three goals are scored, you'll once again have to split your bet into two parts. On an Over 2.75 bet, you'll get half your stake back and lose the rest. The Under 2.75 will let you get half your stake back and win the other half.

If there are less than three goals, the Under bet wins, and the Over loses. More than three goals mean that the Over bet is a winning one while the Under bet is lost entirely.

Bet	2 Goals	3 Goals	4 Goals
Asian Over 2.75	LOST	½ WON - ½ VOID	WON
Asian Under 2.75	WON	½ LOST - ½ VOID	LOST

Asian Total Over 0.75 meaning

Quarter-goal handicaps are a bit more complex. In order to simplify them, you have to follow a simple trick: Split your quarter Handicap Over/Under bet into two separate bets, a full goal and a half goal one.

This means that in the instance of the 0.75 bet, you will have to technically divide your stake into two bets: Half your stake is placed on the 0.5 handicap and the other half on the 1-goal handicap.

By following this rule of thumb, you can see that if you bet on the Over 0.75 and a match ends with only one goal being scored, you will get half your stake back (Over 1 goal) and win the other half (Over 0.5 goals).

If you bet on Under 0.75, you will lose half your stake (Under 0.5) and get a cashback of the rest (Under 1). Finally, if a match ends in a goalless draw, you will lose your entire Over 0.75 AH bet and win the Under 0.75 one. If two or more goals are scored, the Over 0.75 bet is won entirely, while the Under 0.75 will not give you any money.

Bet	0 Goals	1 Goal	2 Goals
Asian Over 0.75	LOST	½ WON - ½ VOID	WON
Asian Under 0.75	WON	½ LOST - ½ VOID	LOST

Asian Over 0.5/Under 0.5 Goals

One of the simplest match total bets. In this case, the line is set at half a goal. This Asian Over/Under means that if you choose the Over 0.5 bet, then all that is required to win is one of the teams scoring a single goal.

In the same manner, if you bet on Under 0.5, then you expect that no goals will be scored in the match. The odds offered before kickoff on an Under 0.5 Asian bet will always be the same as on the 0-0 exact score. Betting on Over 0.5/Under 0.5 can be extremely profitable in the closing stages of a match.

Bet	0 Goals	1 Goal	2 Goals
Asian Over 0.5	LOST	WON	WON
Asian Under 0.5	WON	LOST	LOST

Asian Over 1

This one is considered a full-goal Asian Over/Under and is typically a safe choice of betting. If you bet on the Over 1 goal line, you need more than one goal to win your wager. If the match ends with exactly one goal being scored, you will get a full refund (push), while if the final result is 0-0, you will lose your bet.

In the same manner, an Under 1 goal line will win on a 0-0 draw, lose on two or more goals and give you a full refund on a single-goal result.

Bet	0 Goals	1 Goal	2 Goals
Asian Over 1	LOST	VOID	WON
Asian Under 1	WON	VOID	LOST

Over 1.25 Goals meaning

Similarly to the Over/Under 0.75, this is another quarter-goal Asian bet. This time, you will have to split your bets into a full-goal handicap (1 goal) and a half-goal one (1.5). If a match ends with only one goal being scored, you will get half your stake back (Over 1) for the Over 1.25 bet and lose the rest (Over 1.5).

If you bet on the Under 1.25, you will win half your stake (Under 1.5) and be refunded with the other half (Under 1). A 0-0 draw means that you will lose your Over 1.25 bet and win the Under 1.25, while two or more goals give the exact opposite results.

Bet	0 Goals	1 Goal	2 Goals
Asian Over 1.25	LOST	½ LOST - ½ VOID	WON
Asian Under 1.25	WON	½ WON - ½ VOID	LOST

Asian Over 1.5 meaning

It is rather simple to bet on the Over/Under 1.5 markets. If you pick Over 1.5, you are simply predicting there will be at least two goals in the game. Conversely, placing a wager on Under 1.5 indicates that you believe there will be no more than one goal.

The chances for betting on Under 1.5 usually match the odds for predicting a 1-0 or 0-0 result in the game. Generally, it can be smart to start placing Asian Over/Under 1.5 live bets when a game is coming to an end.

Bet	0 Goals	1 Goal	2 Goals
Asian Over 1.5	LOST	LOST	WON
Asian Under 1.5	WON	WON	LOST

Over 1.75/Under 1.75 goals

This is a quarter-goal handicap commonly found in low-scoring leagues. Your winning margin concerns two goals. If a match ends with less than two goals, the Under 1.75 bet wins, while the Over 1.75 bet loses. If two goals are scored, your bet is once again split into two separate bets.

For the Over 1.75, you will get half your stake back (Over 2), while the remaining stake (Over 1.5) will be won. Accordingly, if you bet on the Under 1.75 and there are two goals, you will lose half your stake (Under 1.5) and be refunded with the other half (Under 2).

Bet	1 Goal	2 Goals	3 Goals
Asian Over 1.75	LOST	½ WON - ½ VOID	WON
Asian Under 1.75	WON	½ LOST - ½ VOID	LOST
