Can someone explain how to read these for me?? I know Columbia should be the big favorite. For example if I look at Bet Champion is Columbia -800 and Honduras is +1.35? That seems like a huge spread? Please help. Also what does that 1X2X1X2 mean too? And what would be the odds of a tie. Thanks guys.

these are european lines
1.35 = -290(Us lines)
4.00 = +300 " "
8.00 = +700 " "

1= homewin
x= draw
2= awaywin

... home team(or home win=1) first then draw/tie(X) and last away team(or away win=2), if you want to convert european/decimal odds to american(pay ??? to win one hundred) ones only problem you face is how to convert those fav?-lines(odds 1.99 or lower) because if the odds(european/decimal) are 2.00 or higher you just subtract 1.00((stake) and multiply by 100 and you have your american odds, like this: Honduras(or 2) 8.00(european) = (8.00-1.00)*100 = (+)700(american).
BUT if the european/decimal odds are 1.99 or lower? you first lose the first number then you invert the rest of the number(.??) and multiply the result by 100, like this: Colombia(or 1) 1.35(european)-1= 0.35 then (1/0.35)=2.857 and 2.857*100= (-)286(american)
