Inter ties history

Soccer Betting Lines

12/23/2006 - Milan, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - With a 2-1 win over Atalanta on Saturday, Serie A's first-place Internazionale equaled the all-time league record for consecutive wins, with its 11th, in front of the home fans at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.

Atalanta scored first, quieting the fans for the mean time, as Inter looked a little lethargic following a 2-0 midweek fixture against Lazio, but Brazilian Adriano evened it up in the second stanza, before an own-goal decided it in the 75th.

The opener came on a Luca Ariatti chip to Doni that landed on the edge of the penalty area before the midfielder put the visitors up 1-0 with a one-time volley that goalkeeper Julio Cesar couldn't stop in the 17th minute.

Atalanta continued to push forward, almost doubling its lead in the 24th minute when Riccardo Zampagna controlled a through-ball, unleashing a shot that brought Cesar into action with a point-blank save.

Going into the half down one seemed to fire up the hosts, and five minutes after the recess Adriano had his chance to even it up but saw his shot trickle wide, while just after the hour mark a Hernan Crespo volley was taken care of by goalkeeper Alex Calderoni.

Inter eventually got the equalizer in the 65th minute of play when Adriano redeemed himself with a diving header off a Luis Figo cross from the left flank.

It just seemed to be Inter's half and that was proven with six minutes left, as Figo curled a free-kick into the box, meeting the head of Atalanta's Simone Loria whose attempted clear ended up in his own net for the 2-1 Inter win.

In other Serie A play on Saturday, Ascoli put on an impressive 3-0 victory over Chievo Verona with a pair of goals from Sasa Bjelanovic, while Livorno and Torino stay locked on the Serie A table with a 1-1 draw, as Siena and Palermo battled to the same result at the Artemio Franchi.

Catania Calcio moved back into fourth place in Serie A with its 4-2 victory over Sampdoria, while Lazio defeated Parma 3-1 in a game that showcased all four scores in the first half. AC Milan continue its climb up the table following its beginning of the season point deficit with a 3-0 road triumph against Udinese, as Messina fell hard, suffering a 4-0 defeat to Fiorentina.

A pair of first-half goals from Nicola Amoruso helped lead Reggina 4-1 over Empoli at the Stadio Oreste Granillo, while a goal in either stanza carried Roma to a 2-0 victory against visiting Cagliari.

Elite 8 NCAA Tournament Betting at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com

In what should be an outstanding Saturday of March Madness betting action, the top four teams in the South and West Regions square off in what should be extremely close match-ups. Three of the four teams are coming off extremely close games on Thursday evening, only UCLA won semi comfortably over Pitt 64-55.

Ohio State is coming off their second game in a row where in all reality they should have lost. Of course that doesn’t matter now since the name of the game is “survive and advance” but as the tournament continues, they can’t afford to keep getting down to their opponents early. Kansas also avoided a scare by holding off a scrappy Southern Illinois squad. In the third thrilling game of the evening Memphis pulled off the minor upset (+3.5) despite being the higher seed to Texas A&M.

Although the spreads are fairly small for Saturday’s games, MySportsbook.com continue to bet against the underdogs. Despite OSU’s two scares, 86% of the “betting public” feels the Buckeyes (-1.5) have what it takes to make the Final Four. In fact, so much of the early money is on OSU that the line has already moved from -1 to -1.5. In the second game of the doubleheader, Kansas and their high-powered offense are 2 point favorites as they take on UCLA and their effective defense. About 63% of the early money thus far is once again backing the favorites. If those percentages stay that high, don’t be surprised if this line moves as well. If you like Kansas (-2) you might want to jump on it early.

Memphis vs. Ohio State

Both squads were involved in thrillers on Thursday evening and should come out fired up. OSU can ill afford to get behind early like they did versus their previous two opponents (Xavier, Tennessee). Greg Oden needs to stay out of foul trouble; the Buckeyes are a completely different team when he is on the court. Memphis definitely has the athleticism and length to match-up with OSU. Of Memphis’ five leading minute earners, the shortest of the bunch is 6’5”. Each team has a very effective defense; Memphis surrenders 62.3 PPG whereas the Buckeyes give up only 61 PPG. With those type of numbers, it isn’t surprising that Memphis covered the UNDER almost 69% of the time this season. As a favorite, OSU has covered the UNDER almost 66% of the time over the last three seasons. The major concern for Memphis which is magnifies this time of the year is their brutal foul shooting (62%). This season, OSU is 17-11 ATS versus teams with a winning record and 7-2 ATS in all tournament games. Memphis has been an extremely reliable cover in tournament play in recent years with a 23-8 ATS record over the last three seasons.

UCLA vs. Kansas

In the second game of Saturday’s doubleheader, UCLA will play in a role which they are very unfamiliar with that of the underdog. Only twice this season have they been getting points from the handicappers and both times they covered. Over the last three seasons UCLA is a reliable 23-7 ATS in this unfamiliar role. UCLA has not fared well against Big 12 opponents recently going 1-7 ATS since 1997. Giving up only 59.6 PPG, UCLA will definitely look to do what they do best: keep this game as low scoring as possible. Their defense has been especially tough during the tournament. UCLA opponents have been able to muster up only 48.7 PPG while shooting a combined 34.5% from the field. UCLA definitely has a challenge at hand with a Kansas team that is capable of putting points on the board in bunches. As a team, they average 79 PPG and shoot an impressive 49.6% from the field and 39.4% from beyond the arc. During the tournament Kansas has been “lights out” from the field having shot 56.2%.
