Dynamo jump back into league action at Crew

Soccer Betting Lines

07/23/2010 - Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Houston Dynamo get back into Major League Soccer action on Saturday after a two week break when they travel to take on the Columbus Crew at Crew Stadium.

The Dynamo (5-7-4) played three SuperLiga matches during their break, going 2-0-1 while topping Mexican team's Pachuca and Pueblo to win their group.

"Overall, to come out on top of this group, I am pleased for the guys," Houston coach Dominic Kinnear told mlssoccer.com.

Now the Western Conference club sets its sights back on league play, traveling to play the Crew, which it played in its last MLS fixture as well, a scoreless draw on July 10.

"I think we're just inches away from pulling off something good here," Kinnear said after the game. "We are inching along, and we need to take some big steps now, but I do think we are on the verge of starting to do that."

The Crew (9-3-4) are coming off a top-of-the-table match with Red Bull New York that they dominated 2-0 to take a five point lead in the East.

"We found the goals," forward Guillermo Barros Schelotto told mlssoccer.com. "They didn't have opportunities to score. We controlled the game for 90 minutes."

The win snapped a two-game winless run in league play, so the first-placed Crew were happy to bounce back.

"We played one of the best games," Crew coach Robert Warzycha told mlssoccer.com. "The players responded very well. As a team we played very well."

The Crew will have to find a way to get a positive result at home without two key players, veteran defender Frankie Hejduk and midfielder Brian Carroll, who will miss the game because of suspension and injury, respectively.

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.
