Ancelotti Half Disable Disable At Play

Soccer Betting Lines

Manchester United has lost two straight Premier League contests to help Tottenham climb back into the title race, entering the weekend tied with Spurs on 45 points apiece. United will aim to keep the pressure on City as the Red Devils host Bolton at Old Trafford on Saturday.

 

Chelsea has its hands full with a Saturday clash against Sunderland at Stamford Bridge. Under new manager Martin O'Neill, the Black Cats have won four of six Premier League games to improve to 24 points on the year. The Blues, meanwhile, have taken just six points from their last five games and are quickly fading away from the title picture.

 

Wolfsburg, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Wolfsburg signed Switzerland defender Ricardo Rodriguez from FC Zurich on Friday on a 4 1/2-year contract. Rodriguez, 19, becomes the 10th new signing for Wolfsburg manager Felix Magath this winter. He debuted for Switzerland last year, and has already appeared in four matches.

 

Wolfsburg is 12th in the Bundesliga, and opens the second half against Cologne on Jan. 21.

 

Kombouare was under pressure after the spending spree - and every result, even wins - were scrutinized by the club's free-spending owners.

 

Ancelotti will make his Ligue 1 debut Saturday at the Parc des Princes against Toulouse, when a win - and a convincing one - will be expected. But Ancelotti, who has changed the team's formation, knows nothing will come easy.

 

PSG managed just a 2-1 win over Locmine last week in the French Cup, as it was able to squeeze into the last 32. Ancelotti switched the club to a 4-3-2-1 for that game, but "after three days of training it is difficult to make it work," he admitted.

 

Ancelotti acknowledged he might have to "change things for the next game," but no concrete decisions were disclosed before the fixture against seventh-place Toulouse.

 

Second-place Montpellier hosts fourth-place Lyon on Saturday, with those clubs three and five points off the pace, respectively.

 

On Sunday, defending champion Lille visits Marseille in a meeting of top-six sides riding extended unbeaten streaks. Lille, four points behind PSG in third place, is unbeaten in 17 straight. Marseille is unbeaten in five.

Two playoff teams from 2007 take center stage on the NFL Network Sunday night in a Week 2 NFL betting match-up when the (0-1) New England Patriots betting head south to Florida for a contest with the (1-0) Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

New England HC Bill Belichick couldn’t care less about the way his team plays in the preseason. With a chance to tie last week’s game with the Baltimore Ravens betting, He elected to go for the two-point conversion and outright victory. The conversion failed, and the Pats ended up falling to the Ravens by a 16-15 final count.

New England rolled off twelve unanswered points to give it a chance at securing the victory, but it never threatened to cover the 3.5-point spread. NFL bettors saw this one coming, as they bet the Ravens down from +6 to +3.5 as the week progressed. QB Tom Brady didn’t take part in the Patriots first preseason clash, but could see action this weekend.

His three replacements all put up embarrassing numbers. They went a combined 17 for 33, and threw three interceptions and no touchdowns. The New England defense was encouraging, as they held the Ravens to 2/12 third down conversions and surrendered just ten first downs. That ‘D’ should be bolstered with the addition of former Bucs and Denver Broncos betting safety John Lynch, who could make his Patriots debut on Sunday against his former mates.

HC Jon Gruden had to be impressed with the way his Bucs played on both sides of the ball in their dominating 17-6 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 1’s NFL pre-season betting action. Bucs bettors were quite happy with the effort, as they made a mockery of the fact that they were underdogs in the game.

The logjam at the quarterback position didn’t get any easier to separate for Gruden, as all four of his QBs had positive experiences in the first exhibition of 2008. The four combined to complete 28 of their 40 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown, and that was without starting QB Jeff Garcia in the lineup.

RB Michael Bennett had 19 carries and four receptions, totaling 90 yards and a touchdown. Expect to see more of Bennett, Kenneth Darby, and Earnest Graham, as they all compete for playing time with Warrick Dunn in the backfield this season. Defensively, the Bucs recorded four sacks and held the Fins offense in check all day.

First round draft pick Aqib Talib was impressive in the secondary, recording a tackle and two pass defenses in his debut. Don’t be surprised to see Talib in the starting lineup opposite Ronde Barber for the Bucs in ’08.

The betting trends suggest that NFL bettors should be backing the Bucs in this intra-conference exhibition.

These two teams hooked up last year in Tampa Bay, with the Bucs winning that game 13-10. The Buccaneers have only lost one preseason game at home dating back to the beginning of the ’05 preseason. The Patriots have had a mixed bag of results in their recent exhibitions. They have gone 2-2 ATS and SU each of the last three years.

New England currently sits as modest 1-point favorites in this preseason showdown with the ‘total’ now sitting at 34.5.
