1 (1:0) in Football Betting

1 (1:0) is a football betting market known as a 1-goal handicap home win. In this market, the home team starts the match with a virtual 1-goal advantage.

Your bet wins if, after applying the handicap, the home team is still leading.

How 1 (1:0) Works

• 1 = Home team to win after handicap.
• 1:0 = Home team is given 1 goal before kickoff.

This means your bet wins if:

• The home team wins,
• Or the match ends in a draw.

Winning Scores for 1 (1:0)

Your bet wins if the actual result is:

• 0-0 (Handicap score: 1-0)
• 1-1 (Handicap score: 2-1)
• 2-2 (Handicap score: 3-2)
• 1-0
• 2-1
• 3-0

Losing Scores for 1 (1:0)

Your bet loses only if the away team wins the actual match.

Examples:

• 0-1 (Handicap score: 1-1, which is a draw after handicap, so this does not win for selection 1)
• 1-2
• 0-2

Important Note

If the away team wins by exactly 1 goal, the handicap result becomes a draw. In that case, X (1:0) wins, not 1 (1:0).

Examples:

• 0-1
• 1-2
• 2-3
