Nancy hopes to stay undefeated

Soccer Betting Lines

09/14/2007 - Lorraine, France (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Nancy will try to continue its undefeated start on Saturday when it travels to the Stade Felix-Bollaert to play Lens.

On paper, this match looks to be very lopsided. Nancy sits in first place of the Ligue 1 table with 16 points, while Lens is second from the bottom with two points.

While Nancy has outscored its opponents, 13-4, in the early going, Lens has only found the back of the net once all season.

The only thing that Nancy has against them going into Saturday's match is that it might be without striker Kim. The Brazilian has been battling with the flu all week, and will be a game-time decision.

With Nancy stealing the spotlight in Ligue 1 this year, defending six-time league champions Lyon knows it must step up its game.

After dropping two of its first three games, Alain Perrin's side has rebounded to win its last three and is now looking to continue that streak at the Stade St Symphorien on Saturday against last-place Metz.

Metz has scored a league-low one goal through seven matches, and is one of three teams still searching for that first elusive victory.

In other matches on Saturday: Marseille is trying to find its form when it welcomes Toulouse to town; Auxerre is at home where it will attempt to avoid a league-high seventh loss versus Nice; Valenciennes will travel south to play Le Mans. Valenciennes has been a surprise this season, and with a victory, can take over the top spot; Frederic Hantz might be playing for his job when Sochaux plays Strasbourg at the Stade Auguste Bonal; St. Etienne can move to the .500 mark with a victory over Caen; Bordeaux seeks its fifth win in eight outings when it travels to Lille.

Ligue 1 will conclude with a pair of matches on Sunday. In the battle of Brittany, Lorient will be up against Rennes, and PSG will hope to collect the full three points for only the second time this season when it travels to Monaco. PSG leads the league with five draws as it sits on the bottom half of the table.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl

NFL Super Bowl Betting

The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.

Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.

The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East.
