Dunfermline out to end dry spell against Rangers

Soccer Betting Lines

02/10/2012 - Dunfermline, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dunfermline will try to snap a pair of negative streaks on Saturday when the club hosts second-place Rangers.

In the last 30 meetings between the two teams, Dunfermline has managed just one win, while the club's first 12 home games this season have yet to yield a victory.

But despite its struggles at home, Dunfermline enters the weekend level on points with Hibernian at the bottom of the league following a 1-1 draw with Kilmarnock on Thursday.

The club had lost eight of its previous nine games before Thursday's result, and things will get significantly more difficult at East End Park on Saturday against a Rangers side that continues to chase Celtic at the top of the league.

Ally McCoist's men have earned 10 points from their last four games but still trail the Hoops by four points, and were bounced from the Scottish Cup last weekend after losing 2-0 to Dundee United.

Celtic advanced to the final of the Scottish Cup after beating Inverness last weekend and the two sides will get together again on Saturday with the Hoops riding a 13-game winning streak in SPL play.

Aberdeen climbed into the top half of the league after losing once in nine games and the Dons will try to hand Hibernian its fourth defeat in five matches at Easter Road, where Hibs has claimed only one win in the league this campaign.

Hearts has been outscored 5-0 in its last two games, both losses, and will try to rebound at Kilmarnock, which is winless in three games.

Dundee United visits McDiarmid Park in eighth place, but following a win over Rangers in the Scottish Cup, while St Johnstone attempts to move into the top four with its fourth win in six games.

Motherwell is six points clear in third place and has won two straight games following a five-match winless streak, while St Mirren will host the Steelmen and is in the midst of a five-game winless streak of its own.

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.
