    I have here Chelsea to win -1 at -117 but Chelsea ML is at -195??
    Don't understand such a big difference between the two as even if Chelsea tie on both, they still lose.
    Can someone explain me why is there a difference or is the book just retarded

    It is possibly and somewhat likely that Chelsea wins by a goal. At Chelsea -1, you push and don't win what you would have won betting on the ML.

      Also a difference between european and asian handicap. asian handicap -1 is as descirbed above...stake back if chelsea win by 1. -1 european handicap would be a loss if chelsea won by 1 so is same as -1.5 asian
