Soccer Betting Lines

02/05/2012 - Kaiserslautern, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Cologne snapped a three-game losing streak Sunday as Odise Roshi scored in the 72nd minute of a 1-0 Bundesliga win over 10-man Kaiserslautern at Fritz-Walter-Stadion.

Cologne had lost its last three matches by combined scores of 8-1, and striker Lukas Podolski - who leads the squad 15 goals - was lost to injury, but Ariel Borysiuk was sent off after 39 minutes for Kaiserslautern and Cologne pounced.

Roshi bagged his first goal of the season 18 minutes from time, shortly after coming on as a substitute, as he latched onto a Christian Clemens cross off a corner and headed home past Kaiserslautern goalie Kevin Trapp.

The goal came just over 1 1/2 minutes after Roshi entered the game and Cologne held on over the final 20 minutes to snatch its third road win this season.

Cologne climbed to ninth in the table on 24 points, ahead of Wolfsburg on goal differential. Kaiserslautern is winless in 10 straight and just one point off the foot of the table.

Freiburg 2, Werder Bremen 2

Freiburg, Germany - Jonathan Schmid notched the tying goal in 70th minute to spoil a brace from Claudio Pizarro and Freiburg tied Werder Bremen 2-2 at MAGE SOLAR Stadion on Sunday in the Bundesliga.

Pizarro put Bremen ahead just before the half hour, but Cedric Makiadi had the hosts level in the 31st. Pizarro handed Bremen its second lead in the opening minute of the second half, but Schmid equalized midway through the session.

Schmid's goal came off a well-struck shot that skipped off the hands of Bremen goalkeeper Tim Wiese, off the right post and in to answer Pizarro for a second time. Pizarro has 15 goals this season, just two behind leader Mario Gomez of Bayern Munich.

Freiburg remained at the bottom of the table, but climbed level on points with 17th-place Augsburg. Bremen sits fifth, but eight points out of fourth and the final Champions League berth.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams

NFL Betting

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.

We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.

Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.

Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.

Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.

NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.

The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
