Wizards will try to make move vs. powerful Houston club

Soccer Betting Lines

07/03/2009 - Kansas City, KA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Kansas City Wizards face a tough task on Saturday when they host the Major League Soccer leading Houston Dynamo at CommunityAmerica Ballpark.

The Wizards (5-5-4) are keen on making a move up the Eastern Conference table, where they are currently in the bottom half. The team is coming off a strong effort in its last league match, topping New England 3-1 on June 13.

They also coming off a couple disappointing results in the SuperLiga, with central defender Jimmy Conrad going out with a knock. His absence was a major factor in the poor showing in the North American club tournament.

"Anytime you lose Jimmy Conrad, who, in my mind, is one of the best central defenders in [MLS], you're going to have issues," Wizards coach Kurt Onalfo said. "Having said that, I thought Rauwshan [McKenzie] did a fairly solid job. But, you're playing against a very savvy group of attacking players. That ended up being the difference in the game."

Conrad will be absent on Saturday because of his participation with the U.S. national team in the CONCACAF Gold Cup. Davy Arnaud and Roger Espinoza will be absent for the same reason, representing their respective countries.

The Dynamo (8-3-4) are coming off a disappointing result of their own in league play, dropping a 1-0 decision at Los Angeles this past Sunday.

"Overall, a disappointing night with the result, obviously, and in the way we played," Houston coach Dominic Kinnear said. "We've definitely played better during the season, and I expect us to play better than that. But unlucky not to come out with something, because I thought we created some chances there."

The Dynamo will be without U.S. internationals Bring Ching and Stuart Holden, and Canadian international Andrew Hainault, all because of their participation in the Gold Cup.

Defenders Eddie Robinson and Wade Barrett are also out and defender Craig Waibel is questionable, all with injuries.

The Wizards will be without forward Adam Cristman, defender Chance Myers, and midfielder Kevin Souter with their own injuries.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
