Bayern Leads Friday Against Heynckes

Soccer Betting Lines

"[Jelavic] won't be available [Saturday]," said Rangers boss Ally McCoist. "He's got a bug and the doctor has been to see him, and his family has been affected too."

 

The Gers hold the edge over Hibs in overall SPL meetings, claiming 32 wins from 46 matches. There have been eight draws.

 

Inverness, having landed French midfielder Claude Gnakpa on loan for the remainder of the season, goes for its third-straight win when it hosts St. Mirren at Caledonian Stadium.

 

And finally, Motherwell looks to build upon its 3-1 defeat of Dunfermline in its last outing as it hosts St. Johnstone at Fir Park.

 

Matavz fired PSV into the lead just after the half-hour mark and Mertens added to the lead in the 76th. Mike Havenaar pulled a goal back after 84 minutes for Vitesse, but Manolev sealed PSV's win 3 minutes into stoppage time.

 

Milan, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - AC Milan announced Friday that it has signed striker Maxi Lopez from Catania, possibly signaling the end of the Rossoneri's pursuit of Carlos Tevez. Milan appeared to be in the mix to land the want-away Manchester City striker, but the signing of Lopez appears to have quelled that deal.

 

The 27-year-old began his career at River Plate in his native Argentina before making the move to Europe to join Barcelona. He has also enjoyed stints at Mallorca, FC Moscow, and Gremio.

 

Munich, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bayern Munich opened the second half of the Bundesliga season the way it opened the first half, with a loss. But after the setback to Monchengladbach in August, Bayern became invincible. Well, at least for a stretch of 13 matches.

 

At the time, Bayern entered the conversation with Barcelona as one of the best club's in Europe. But since the unbeaten streak was snapped, Bayern has proven it is still mortal.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year Awards

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.

Bet on NFL Football

Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.

Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.

Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.

Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.

All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.

A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
