Celtic claims 13th-straight league win
Soccer Betting Lines
02/11/2012 -
Glasgow, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Celtic continued its stunning run of form
Saturday, defeating Inverness, 1-0, at Parkhead to extend its winning streak
in Scottish Premier League play to 13 games.
The Bhoys have not dropped points in Scotland's top flight since Oct. 29 when
it was held to a 0-0 draw with Hibernian, and it hasn't lost a league match
since Oct. 2 when it fell 2-0 to Hearts.
Neil Lennon's men have been on a roll since, winning 13 successive contests to
overtake Rangers at the top of the table.
With Rangers also taking three points on Saturday after a 4-1 defeat of
Dunfermline, the Premier League table remains unchanged with Celtic leading
its fierce rival by four points.
Celtic needed only one goal to dispatch Inverness, and Joe Ledley provided
that lone strike in the 16th minute.
The goal was slightly overshadowed by red cards issued to players on both
squads, as Celtic's Daniel Majstorovic was sent off in the 60th minute before
Steve Williams of Inverness picked up his second yellow card in the 78th
minute.
But all that mattered for the home side at the end of the day was three
points, which they earned through Ledley's early strike.
Celtic's 21st win of the season gives the club 65 points on the season, while
Inverness remains third from bottom on just 26 points.
Rangers 4, Dunfermline 1
Dunfermline, Scotland - Rangers surrendered an early lead at Dunfermline on
Saturday but battled back to claim a resounding 4-1 victory at East End Park.
Andy Kirk opened the scoring to shock the visitors in the 16th minute. Rangers
responded quickly with goals in the 24th and 39th minutes from David Healy and
Lee McCulloch respectively.
Rangers extended the lead and secured the victory in second-half play with
goals from Sone Aluko and Salim Kerkar.
The Gers keep pace with league-leaders Celtic, sitting four points of the pace
with 61 points on the season. Dunfermline remains in the cellar of Scotland's
top tier with 18 points.
Dundee United 5, St. Johnstone 1
Perth, Scotland - Dundee United handed St. Johnstone its second-straight
league defeat in stunning fashion, trouncing the fifth-place club, 5-1, at
McDiarmid Park on Saturday.
A pair of own goals gifted the visitors the lead as Steven Anderson conceded
the opener in the 35th minute before Callum Davidson gave away another in the
61st minute.
Anderson made amends by pulling a goal back in the 66th, but Dundee responded
with three more goals through Johnny Russell, Jon Daly, and Milos Lacny.
Dundee moves into the top half of the table on 30 points where it sits five
points behind St. Johnstone.
Kilmarnock 1, Hearts 1
Kilmarnock, Scotland - Hearts earned a dramatic point on the road, grabbing a
90th minute goal as it played to a 1-1 draw with Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on
Saturday.
Paul Heffernan thought he handed Killie the win with a 79th-minute goal, but
it
was canceled out late on by Suso Santana as the Spanish winger helped Hearts
earn a share of the points.
Hearts improve to 36 points in fourth place, while Killie remains in eighth
place after drawing its second straight match.
Hibernian 0, Aberdeen 0
Edinburgh, Scotland - Hibernian was held scoreless at home as it played to a
0-0 draw with Aberdeen at Easter Road on Saturday.
Hibs, sitting second from bottom, have managed just one point from it last
three Scottish league games.
Aberdeen has fared much better as it extended its unbeaten streak to five
games.
St. Mirren 0, Motherwell 0
Paisley, Scotland - St. Mirren and Motherwell played to a 0-0 draw in a
stalemate at St. Mirren Park on Saturday.
With its second-straight draw, St. Mirren improves to 28 points on the season,
good enough for ninth place in the Scottish Premier League.
Motherwell, unbeaten in its last four, sits third in the league on 42 points.

NFL Football Sports Betting
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.

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
