Soccer Betting Lines

05/27/2010 - Munich, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bayern Munich rising star Diego Contento has signed a new two-year contract extension to tie him to the club until the summer of 2013.

The 20-year-old defender became a regular member of coach Louis van Gaal's plans this season, helping Bayern to a league and cup double, before suffering a 2-0 defeat to Inter Milan in the final of the Champions League.

Contento, a product of the club's youth system, played in both legs of Bayern's European semifinal win over Lyon, but was an unused substitute against Inter.

He also sat out the 4-0 Pokal Cup final win over Werder Bremen, but featured in a 1-0 victory against Schalke in the semifinals.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
