Home -8: Meaning in Betting
The Home -8 bet is a type of bet where the home team needs to win by more than 8 goals for your bet to win. If the home team wins by exactly 8 goals, your stake is refunded, resulting in a «push». If the home team wins by 9 or more goals, your bet wins in full. If the home team wins by fewer than 8 goals, draws, or loses, your bet loses.
This type of bet is useful when you expect the home team to win by an extremely large margin but want partial protection in case they only win by exactly 8 goals.
