⚖️ 7. Handicap
Handicap
The handicap is applied to Montrose, so a minus line means Montrose give that many goals of a start and Ross County receive them. At -1, Montrose must win by two or more to land; a one-goal Montrose 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.
