Home -7: Meaning in Betting

The Home -7 bet is a type of bet where the home team needs to win by more than 7 goals for your bet to win. If the home team wins by exactly 7 goals, your stake is refunded, resulting in a «push.» If the home team wins by 8 or more goals, your bet wins in full. If the home team wins by fewer than 7 goals, draws, or loses, your bet loses.
This type of bet is useful when you expect the home team to win by a very large margin, but you want partial protection in case they win by exactly 7 goals.
