Liverpool, Spurs finish goalless at Anfield

Soccer Betting Lines

02/06/2012 - Liverpool, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Liverpool and Tottenham played to a 0-0 draw at Anfield on Monday, doing little to improve the ambitions of either side.

The result leaves Tottenham seven points back of leaders Manchester City, while Liverpool failed to make up any ground on fourth-place Chelsea as both sides collected a point this weekend, leaving the Reds four points adrift.

The lone chance of note for either side in the first half came in the 34th minute when Liverpool's Steven Gerrard laid a ball off for Jay Spearing, whose first-time effort from 20 yards curled just past the post.

Tottenham seemed content to hold out for a point as the match went on and was fortunate to remain on level terms when Andy Carroll brought the ball down but fired it well over the net from 12 yards in the 74th minute.

For all the defending that Spurs did, they nearly stole all three points in the final five minutes when Gareth Bale got behind the Liverpool defense but shot straight at goalkeeper Pepe Reina, squandering the best chance of the match.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
