Dallas puts road unbeaten run on line at Toronto
Soccer Betting Lines
07/23/2010 -
Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - FC Dallas has not lost on the road since April
and puts its six-match road undefeated streak on the line Saturday at Toronto FC, which is one of three Major League Soccer teams still unbeaten at home.
FC Dallas (6-2-7) lost to Red Bull New York in mid-April, but has two wins and
four draws in its last six road matches. Dallas won at Houston and Chivas USA,
and has scored in every road game this season.
Coach Schellas Hyndman's club managed just eight points on the road last year,
but already has 10 points away from home. Dallas doesn't have a magic formula,
according to Hyndman, but the club does try to take the home side out of their
"comfort zone."
"We go after teams and take away that home field [advantage], that comfort
zone," Hyndman said. "It seems to be working."
"We know if we play our game in our system, teams are going to have to adjust
to us if we stick to what we do well," Dallas defender Heath Pearce said. "I
think we've implemented that well on the road."
Although Toronto (6-5-4) is unbeaten in eight home matches, Dallas has managed
to get results in its previous visits to Toronto. Dallas is 1-1-1 at BMO Field
in its history.
Dallas enters the match after an impressive 2-0 win over Real Salt Lake, which
snapped the defending MLS Cup champions' 10-match undefeated streak. Brek Shea
and Atiba Harris scored for Dallas.
Hyndman will be forced to make a minor change this week, as Bruno Guardo will
likely make his second start of the season for the injured Dax McCarty.
"He's just a guy that we have a lot of confidence in and he knows the system
well," McCarty said of Guarda. "He knows what Schellas wants out of him and he
has the trust of everyone."
The Los Angeles Galaxy preserved their undefeated home mark with a 2-2 draw on
Thursday against the San Jose Earthquakes, and Real Salt Lake is also unbeaten
at home.
Toronto had its eight-match unbeaten streak snapped last weekend in a 2-1 loss
to the Philadelphia Union, as Sebastian Le Toux converted a penalty in injury
time.
TFC played England's Bolton on Wednesday, falling 4-3 on penalty kicks after a
1-1 tie. Toronto FC debuted its recent signing, Spanish striker Mista, against
Bolton and he's set to make his MLS debut against Dallas. Mista, a Designated
Player, assisted on Toronto's goal against Bolton.
Toronto is third in the Eastern Conference and Dallas is third in the Western
Conference, making a result this weekend crucial as both teams enter the start
half of their schedules.

American Idol odds : Blake Lewis the Early Standout
An important American Idol betting lines recap from February 20 Guys episode. The 12 men came out flat overall with Blake Lewis appearing to have the early edge after the first hour and a half.
Rudy - was quite good singing "Free Ride" to start off. Randy was not impressed though. Paula thought he started off fantastic. "Never had anyone stop off so lively" said Paula but Simon (who does not like Rudy) does not feel he has a distinct voice and was not impressed either.
Brandon was a little pitchy according to Randy and Paula agreed. Simon said he was a good singer but the song was "too safe" and he needs to make an impact. He was listed at +1200 odds or $1200 paid out on a $100 bet should he win the competition.
Big favorite Sundance came in with a flat version of "Knights in White Satin" and the judges let him have it, including Paula. Randy claimed the song was out of pitch throughout.
Korean American - and a Jenny Woo favorite - Paul Kim was up next. Another pitchy flat one but Randy said he still liked his potential. Kim at +3000 odds was said to have sung a "third rate version of that (George Michael) song" according to Simon Cowell. He sang "Careless Whisper".
22 year old Chris Richardson was up next. He was listed with +1100 odds coming in. He got the best response from the judges though Simon did not believe the vocal was that great.
Nick was boring and pitchy. Simon didn't think he was that bad though and predicted he would be back next week. Nick Pedro was a big +3000 dog coming into this competition.
Beat boxer Blake Lewis was listed with early +1000 odds or $1000 payout on a $100 bet if he were to become the next American Idol winner odds . These of course were the early odds. He was considered original for picking an "odd song". He did not beat box and the judges felt it was the best vocal of the night.
Sanjaya came in as the second biggest favorite after Chris Sligh but his performance Tuesday night was not very good.
Chris Sleigh was the early favorite at +450 odds. Great voice and a great sense of humor. He's a real standout. Randy felt it was on point but maybe ahead of the chorus a little bit. Simon Cowell said he felt like he was in some "sort of weird student gig".
Jared Cotter followed. He was listed with +2000 odds early on to win the competition. The judges felt he needs to take more risks but looked good.
22-year old AJ Talbado, who has tried out for American Idol five times, was up next. "Kind of a theme park performance" said Simon. Though the judges felt he performed okay. Simon did feel AJ might be better than he originally thought.
Phil - this season's military favorite - came into this competition with +1200 odds to win the competition. He was the last to perform. He was certainly strong enough to get through this stage of the competition and perhaps the best one after a shaky start.
Tomorrow night, the ladies perform and I sure hope they do a better job than the boys. Check out all the American Idol betting odds here.
