07/09/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Toronto FC puts its home unbeaten streak on the line on Saturday when they welcome the Colorado Rapids to BMO Field.
TFC has yet to taste defeat at home this season after Dan Gargan rescued a point for the Reds last time out with an 84th-minute equalizer to help them claim a 1-1 draw with the Houston Dynamo.
The result was the third successive draw for Toronto, but it also extended the teams unbeaten streak to seven games, leaving them in third place in the Eastern Conference table.
The game was an ill-tempered affair that featured two TFC players, Julian de Guzman and Amadou Sanyang, both being sent off, meaning that both will miss out on Saturday's game along with defender Emmanuel Gomez, who is out with a knee injury.
One player who could be available to head coach Preki is striker Maicon Santos, who was signed on Friday after being released by Chivas USA earlier this past week.
"We are delighted to welcome Maicon on board," said manager and director of soccer Mo Johnston. "Preki knows this player inside and out, and speaks very highly of him both on and off the field. He's a target man, strong, and packs a very good shot."
TFC will hope that Santos can aid a struggling attack that has produced just one goal in its last three games.
The Rapids are unbeaten in their last six games, but they have drawn their last three, including a 1-1 deadlock with Red Bull New York last time out.
Colorado is currently third in the Western Conference table, but defender Scott Palguta voiced his frustration after last week's result, which came at home.
"When we are at home, that's not a point gained; it's two points lost," he told mlssoccer.com. "We were obviously very dominant and hopefully we can keep that going and maybe next week [against Toronto] make it into a win somehow."
Midfielder Mehdi Ballouchy will be kept home because of immigration problems, leaving head coach Gary Smith with a tough decision to make on who will fill the shoes left by Ballouchy, who has scored two goals and assisted on three others in 12 games this season.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.
(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977. Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.
Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer. In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season.
MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season. Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite. After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.
Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions. They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals. The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
