Safin upsets Davydenko in Moscow
Tennis Betting Lines
10/21/2009 -
Moscow, Russia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Unseeded Marat Safin toppled top-seeded
fellow Russian Nikolay Davydenko in opening-round action Wednesday at the
$1.08 million Kremlin Cup tennis event.
The former world No. 1 Safin, who expects to retire from the ATP at season's
end, overcame and outlasted last week's Shanghai Masters champion Davydenko
4-6, 6-4, 6-2 on the indoor hardcourts at Olympic Stadium. Safin moved on
in just under two hours with the help of 10 aces and three service breaks.
The three-time Moscow titlist Davdyenko, who surprised former top-ranked
star Rafael Nadal in last week's Shanghai finale, captured this tournament
in 2004, 2006 and 2007.
The Muscovite Safin was last year's Moscow runner-up to fellow Russian Igor
Kunitysn and was the 2006 runner-up here to Davdyenko.
Kunitsyn will not repeat as the titlist this year, as he succumbed to
compatriot Evgeny Korolev 7-6 (8-6), 6-3 in round one on Wednesday. Korolev
will battle the two-time major champion Safin on Thursday.
In second-round play on Day 3, third-seeded Russian Mikhail Youzhny whipped
Italian Potito Starace 6-1, 6-1, fifth-seeded Pablo Cuevas of Uruguay came
back to beat Russian Teimuraz Gabashvili 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 and another Ukrainian
qualifier, Sergiy Stakhovsky, upended seventh-seeded Frenchman Fabrice Santoro
7-5, 6-1. Santoro, like Safin, expects to retire this year.
One other first-round match saw Ukrainian qualifier Illya Marchenko take out
Uzbekistan's Denis Istomin 1-6, 6-4, 4-1, retired, as Istomin gave way to a
throat infection.
The 2009 Moscow champ will collect $170,000.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect
LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.
Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.
Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
