NAC halts PSV's unbeaten run

Soccer Betting Lines

03/06/2010 - Breda, Netherlands (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - PSV Eindhoven suffered its first league defeat of the season on Saturday at NAC as Robert Schilder scored the winning goal in the 72nd minute.

Orlando Engelaar put PSV in front after 18 minutes, but after Donny Gorter leveled the match in the 35th minute for NAC, Schilder took advantage of a quickly-taken free kick to fire home the winner.

PSV remains on top of the Eredivisie table by one point, but they can slip to second place if Twente beats RKC Waalwijk on Sunday.

There was no indication that PSV would struggle after 18 minutes when a nice individual effort from Engelaar put the visitors ahead.

Engelaar worked his way past two defenders to get into the penalty area and curled a left-footed shot inside the far post.

The match was level in the 35th minute after a one-two between Gorter and Edwin de Graaf allowed Gorter to take the return pass and float the ball over the head of goalkeeper Andreas Isaksson.

NAC goalkeeper Jelle ten Rouwelaar did well to keep out second-half shots from Balazs Dzsudzsak and Engelaar, and his efforts were rewarded in the 73rd minute when Tommie van der Leegte took a quick free kick and picked out Schilder, who drove the ball into the corner of the net.

Dzsudzsak had one final chance to preserve PSV's unbeaten mark, but his free kick in the 86th minute whistled inches past the post.

AZ Alkmaar rolled to a 4-1 win over Heerenveen, Vitesse and Den Haag finished 1-1 and Heracles downed Willem II, 3-2, despite two goals from Gerson Sheotahul for the losing side.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.

SPORTS BETTING

NFL Football Betting Online

In terms of sports wagering, the NFL is "the most popular game in town." The explanation behind that is easy.

It is called the "pointspread."

Many years ago, NFL games, as well as the more popular college games, used straight odds as a vehicle for betting. For example, if the Bears were playing the Giants, and it shaped up as a competitive contest, the Bears might be, say, a 7/5 favorite. If they were playing an also-ran, it might be 10/1. Well, there is a point where a line becomes prohibitive, as far as betting the favorite. And who would waste money betting an underdog that has virtually no chance? Such a setup did not contribute to promoting betting action.

But in modern sports betting, a "pointspread" is used.

A NFL pointspreads are exactly that, a pre-established point difference between the two sides that will, for all intents and purposes, create a handicap that evens things out, and in doing so, produces comparable wagering activity on both sides of that proposition. So in lieu of a odds figure in which to bet the team to win outright, the Bears might be a three-point favorite over the New York Giants, and a 17-point favorite over the also-ran. Now that the team that is the underdog can "get" points, there can be equal action on both sides.

In sportsbooks, this is usually done with efficiency by charging the losing bettors 10% extra - in effect, bettors are laying 11/10 on those games. So they are actually betting $110 to win $100. If they lose, they pay the "vig." If they win, they simply collect.

The establishment of the pointspread as the corner stone around which team sports like football can be wagered upon was truly what brought gridiron betting into the stratosphere for online football betting .
