TFC aims to start new home streak vs. RSLSoccer Betting Lines08/27/2010 - 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.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich. The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
