Soccer Betting Lines

02/17/2012 - Milan, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Marco Di Vaio's first-half brace heaped more pressure on Inter Milan as Bologna handed the Nerazzurri a 3-0 defeat at the San Siro on Friday.

Inter boss Claudio Ranieri will be feeling the heat after his team sustained its third successive loss and the fourth in its last five games, leaving the club 11 points off the pace of Serie A leaders AC Milan with one more game played.

Di Vaio got the scoring started in the 37th minute when he took a short pass from Diego Perez inside the penalty area and beat goalkeeper Julio Cesar with a shot into the lower right corner of the net.

The hosts then handed Di Vaio a second goal one minute later when a defender tried to bring the ball down off his chest but instead played it into the path of Di Vaio, who coasted in on goal and easily beat the 'keeper to double the lead.

Inter looked flat throughout the match and was punished with a third goal five minutes from time when Jean-Francois Gillet played Robert Acquafresca into the area and he scored with a left-footed shot.

Bologna is on a run of six games without a loss and moves seven points clear of the drop zone with the win.

Napoli 3, Fiorentina 0

Florence, Italy - Edinson Cavani scored a goal in each half as Napoli coasted to a 3-0 win over Fiorentina at the Stadio Artemio Franchi on Friday.

The win lifts Napoli into fifth place and gives the club eight points from its last four games, while Fiorentina remains in the bottom half of the league after losing for the first time in four games.

Cavani needed only three minutes to put Napoli in front when he got on the other end of a through ball from Marek Hamsik to fire home his 14th goal of the campaign.

The Uruguayan teamed up with Hamsik again to net his second goal of the match 10 minutes after the break while Ezequiel Lavezzi capped the scoring in stoppage time.

As cup crazy fans prepare to place their bets, one online sportsbook ,MySportsbook.com, is offering hockey betting lines on the 2007/2007 Stanley Cup , who will bring it home this upcoming season.

Despite a poor showing in last season's playoffs and the loss of Steve Yzerman to retirement, the Detroit Red Wings are early favourites at this online sportsbook with wagering odds of 6-1. The Wings will look to offensive powerhouse Pavel Datsyuk and newly appointed captain Nicklas Lidstrom to lead one of the league's most prominent franchises.

Always a threat are the Ottawa Senators, with newly acquired goaltender Martin Gerber from the Stanley Cup champion ,Carolina Hurricanes. The Sens are second best in the rankings at a 7-1 bet, and odds makers at this sportsbook are optimistic that the Ottawa squad will fare better than last season's Eastern Conference semi-final upset to the Buffalo Sabres.
