The 5.25 total means you are making a half-bet at 5 goals and another half-bet at 5.5 goals.
The 0.75 means a half-bet at 0.5 goals and a half-bet at 1 goal.
Basically you have a chance of pushing half your wager ... hope that clarifies things :)

Hey OG,
It may be a glitch on Pinny's mobile app, but 1/4 lines do exist. They are known as "Asian handicap lines" and you see it a lot with soccer.
Here is a cut and paste from Wikipedia:
Quarter Goal or Two Way Handicaps
Subsequently, many matches are handicapped in ½ and ¼ intervals; both of which eliminate the possibility of a push since no one can score a half-goal. Quarter (¼) handicaps split the bet between the two next closest ¼ intervals. For instance, a $1000 bet with a handicap of 1 ¾ is the same as betting $500 at 1 ½ and $500 at 2. With ¼ handicap bets, you can win and tie (win ½ of wager) or lose and tie (lose ½ wager). The ¼-goal handicap may be expressed by some bookmakers as "0 and ½", or (especially for bookmakers whose systems are designed for sports like American football and basketball (where bets have a handicap that is designed to make the odds as close to even as possible)) as "pk (for "pick-em") and ½".
Match: Everton vs. Newcastle United
Handicap: 0 : +1.0, +1.5
Explained: This handicap states that half of your bet goes on Everton winning, or losing by less than 1 goal, and half on Newcastle winning, or losing by less than 1.5 goals.
If the final score is Everton 1-0 Newcastle, half your bet would be refunded due to draw (Everton 1 - +1 Newcastle, i.e: Newcastle lost by exactly one goal). The second half would win (Everton 1 - +1.5 Newcastle, i.e: Newcastle lost by less than 1.5 goals).
