    Say if I bet on double chance for Utd to win or draw.

    Say I also bet on Utd at handicap of +1.


    What is the difference between these two bets? They are covering the same outcomes!


    Thanks

    It is the same thing.

    +1 Asian will return your stake if Utd lose by 1 goal.

    Sometimes there will be a difference in the price as they might calculate the two markets slightly differently is the closest explanation you will get. They might try to react to bets placed in a single market and the second market doesn't adjust simultaneously. Always check both prices.

    Always check both prices
    and back the bigger price ;).
    There's loads of examples of different prices on the same things especially where companies have Team A & Team B prices and also the named teams to do the same thing.
