Soccer Betting Lines

01/28/2007 - Alkmaar, Holland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - AZ Alkmaar climbed into second place in the Dutch Eredivisie standings - at least temporarily - with a 3-0 win over Sparta Rotterdam on Saturday.

Goals by Shota Arveladze and Maarten Martens and an own goal by Steve Olfers earned three points for the team and jumped them over idle Ajax in the table.

PSV still own a nine point lead in the table before its contest on Sunday.

Sparta's struggling defense showed its recent form when Arveladze opened the scoring in the 22nd minute.

He took a long pass in the box, turned and chipped a shot off the post and into the net for the 1-0 lead.

A couple minutes after the break Olfers put the ball into his own net to give the hoe squad a 2-0 lead before Martens deposited a pass from Danny Koevermans in the 52nd minute to close out the scoring.

In the other Eredivisie contest on Saturday, Willem II and Vitesse Arnhem battled to a scoreless draw, FC Utrecht topped relegation-zoned Excelsior 1-0 and NEC edged NAC Breda 2-1.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

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.
