Chelsea's Carvalho to miss Barca match

Soccer Betting Lines

04/24/2009 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chelsea defender Ricardo Carvalho will miss next week's Champions League semifinal first-leg clash with Barcelona through injury.

The Portugal international suffered a recurrence of a hamstring injury while making his comeback for the reserves at the beginning of the week.

Carvalho missed the midweek goalless draw with Everton in the Premier League and interim manager Guus Hiddink has now ruled him out of Saturday's game against West Ham United and the trip to Spain on Tuesday night.

"He [Carvalho] got a little bit of trouble again in his hamstring in the reserves, so he won't be there next week," said Hiddink.

Meanwhile, Hiddink is considering whether to play Michael Mancienne or Jose Bosingwa at left back against Barcelona as Ashley Cole is suspended.

England Under-21 center half Mancienne recently played as a makeshift fullback for the reserves at the request of Hiddink, while right back Bosingwa could switch sides should he prove his fitness following a hamstring problem.

"We have the problem with Ashley Cole as well, but I can start crying about these problems or I can think there's an opportunity to get an advantage out of a disadvantage," continued the Dutch coach. "We have some candidates for the left back position and we have some time to practice.

"I have some options in my mind."

Stanley Cup betting

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.
