⚖️ 7. Handicap
Handicap
The handicap is applied to Hamrun Spartans, so a minus line means Hamrun Spartans give that many goals of a start and Balzan FC receive them. At -1, Hamrun Spartans must win by two or more to land; a one-goal Hamrun Spartans win settles as Draw. There is no returned stake - the middle case is its own selection. Taken from the same scoreline distribution as correct score.
