Battle of unbeatens as Crew host Galaxy
Soccer Betting Lines
05/27/2010 -
Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Columbus Crew host the Los Angeles Galaxy
on Saturday night in Major League Soccer action in what very well could be a
preview of MLS Cup 2010.
Both teams are unbeaten just under a third of the way into the season, with
the Crew (6-0-2) actually rattling off three wins in an eight days stretch
last week - the last two of which were on the road. The week was capped off
with a 1-0 win this past Sunday in Kansas City.
"The field is small," Crew goalkeeper William Hesmer told mlssoccer.com of
CommunityAmerica Ballpark in K.C. "It made for a kind of ugly game. That's
been our style and how we've played so far this year. We were up for the
battle."
The Crew were playing without winger Robbie Rogers and defender Chad Marshall,
who were with the U.S. national team in preparation of the upcoming World Cup.
Both players should be available on Saturday, however, after the were cut when
the final 23-man roster was announced on Wednesday.
The Galaxy weren't so lucky on Wednesday, with their two players in U.S. camp
- MLS assist leader Landon Donovan and goal leader Edson Buddle - both making
the 23-man roster. They will be unavailable to the Galaxy until at least the
conclusion of the World Cup's group stage at the end of June.
But the Galaxy (8-0-2) will have to find a way to get a result for the second
straight week without both their most talented [Donovan], and their most in-
form [Buddle] players.
"They're a good team," L.A. defender Sean Franklin told mlssoccer.com of the
Crew. "I've seen some film of some of their games, and they've scored a number
of goals on set pieces.
"They're just a tough opponent this week ... we have to be sharp."
Will the Crew should get two significant players back, they also could be
without three important pieces in defenders Frankie Hejduk and Danny O'Rourke,
and midfielder Brian Carroll, who suffered knocks last week.
The Galaxy are relatively healthy, with forward Alan Gordon, midfielder Dema
Kovalenko, and defender Leonardo all listed as questionable with injuries.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams
NFL Betting
It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash. NFL Wagering
