09/14/2007 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - When Real Salt Lake travels to Toronto FC Saturday for a Major League Soccer clash, it won't exactly be a clash of the titans. RSL is currently second-to-last in the league with just 18 points after 23 games while TFC hasn't scored a goal in nine games - an MLS record 732 minutes.
Both teams still have hope for their seasons, however. RSL won three of five games before dropping one goal decisions to two of the best teams in the league - Houston and D.C. - in their last two fixtures while Toronto is still just nine points out of the final playoff spot, even after falling, 2-0, at Dallas last weekend in a game it very easily could have won.
"I thought the guys played very hard," Toronto coach Mo Johnston said. "They worked hard for each other, created 11 chances. We should have scored. Our guys stuck together and battled hard. The guys are gutted. It's a shame because we should have had something from the game tonight, maybe a point. I don't think Dallas performed very well. We thought behind them numerous times but we just couldn't score."
"That's all it is - effort," RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando goalkeeper said after the loss to D.C. "It doesn't mean anything unless you get three points or a point. Today we showed we've been giving effort all year, but we seem always to lose it at the end or give up a silly goal. Today's the same thing. We give a [good] effort, you know good teams, good games. For some reason we give them away, and that's why we're at the bottom and they're at the top."
While neither team is mathematically eliminated from the playoffs yet, chances are slim, meaning finishing the last seven games of the season strong is important for both clubs.
RSL has hope for next season, with a young lineup bolstered by the acquisitions of the Argentinean trio of Fabian Espindola, Javier Morales and Matias Mantilla to its roster in mid-August.
Toronto, which has been hit hard by injuries this season, at least knows that before the said injuries decimated most of its main attacking players, it was in a position to make a legitimate run at the playoffs, which it can build on in '08.
This will be the second meeting between the two clubs this season, with Toronto getting its first road win in franchise history on July 4 at Rice- Eccles Stadium. Jeff Cunningham scored the game's first goal in the 19th minute when he received a pass from Danny Dichio and broke in on goal alone to make it 1-0. Neither player will be in the Toronto lineup Saturday, however, because of injuries.
RSL got the goal back just before halftime when Alecko Eskandarian converted from the penalty spot after he was sandwiched by Toronto defenders Jim Brennan and Carl Robinson in the box. But Collin Samuel gave TFC their historic victory, converting a penalty of his own in the 79th minute
After Saturday's fixture at BMO Field, Toronto hosts Columbus next Saturday while Real Salt Lake hosts the Los Angeles Galaxy on Wednesday.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
