TFC aims to start new home streak vs. RSL

Soccer Betting Lines

08/27/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Real Salt Lake travels to take on Toronto FC in Major League Soccer action at BMO Field on Saturday night.

RSL, which has just one league loss in its last 16, will be facing a Toronto side that is coming off its first home loss of the season last weekend to New York. The loss snapped a 17-game home unbeaten run for TFC, the fourth-longest in MLS history.

"I don't think we started particularly well, the first five, six minutes we were kind of lethargic," Toronto coach Preki said after the 4-1 home loss to New York. "We could have easily been down in that first five or six minutes. But then we found the life and we had quite a few opportunities.

"We win together, we lose together, and [vs. New York] we lost together. We have to pick ourselves up."

Toronto (7-8-5) is also coming off a 2-1 loss at Panamanian side Arabe Unido in CONCACAF Champions League at mid-week.

RSL (11-4-6) hasn't played a league fixture since a 2-0 win over Columbus on Aug. 20, but it has played a pair of Champions League fixtures since that time.

The first was a 2-1 win over Arabe Unido on Aug. 18, before falling at Cruz Azul, 5-4, on Wednesday. Despite the most recent loss, the defending MLS Cup champions were optimistic about the result.

"I think we have to take a lot of positive things away from this match," RSL coach Jason Kreis said after the loss in Mexico. "We came down here and did what we set out to do, which was not to sit back and defend the entire match. We came out here and tried to put our best foot forward and go on the attack, and if you can put up four goals on Cruz Azul at their place you have to say you've done that."

Despite playing at midweek, RSL is relatively healthy, while Toronto will be without defender Emmanuel Gomez and midfielder Amadou Sanyang, while forward Maicon Santos is probable, all with injuries.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
