Last-place Novara stuns Inter at San Siro

Soccer Betting Lines

02/12/2012 - Milan, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Unfortunately for last-place Novara, it does not play Inter Milan again this season.

Andrea Caracciolo scored in the 56th minute Sunday and Novara won for just the third time in Serie A this season - and the second time against Inter - 1-0 at the San Siro.

Novara, which downed Inter 3-1 earlier this season at home, won its first road game in 11 matches this season - even after Ivan Radovanovic was sent off with 10 minutes left in normal time.

Inter Milan lost its second straight and for the third time in its last four - with the first defeat in the four-match winless streak against Lecce, another club in the bottom three.

Although Inter dominated possession in the first half, it had nothing to show for it at the break as the match was 0-0 after 45 minutes.

Novara snatched the only goal it needed early in the second half off a counter that Caracciolo finished perfectly. Jeda swung a ball in from the leg wing and Caracciolo settled with his right foot, then curled a left-footed shot from 25 yards past Inter goalie Julio Cesar and just inside the left post.

Inter caught a break when Radovanovic received a second yellow card, but again failed to beat Novara goalie Samir Ujkani, who also got a little help from his crossbar.

Inter turned its possession into more chances over the remainder of the match, but a 20-yard rocket from Wesley Sneijder in the 88th that smashed off the bar was one of its few real scoring chances.

Ujkani made the last of his six saves on a point-blank effort from Giampaolo Pazzini in stoppage time, as Novara held on for the improbable victory.

Catania 4, Genoa 0

Catania, Italy - Pablo Barrientos scored twice in a 2-minute stretch early in the second half as Catania snapped a five-match winless run with a 4-0 victory Sunday over Genoa at the Stadio Angelo Massimino in Serie A.

Francesco Lodi and Gonzalo Bergessio also scored for Catania, which climbed to 12th in the table. Genoa, which had a two-game win streak snapped, is ninth.

Atalanta 0, Lecce 0

Bergamo, Italy - Guido Marilungo and Federico Peluso hit the post as Atalanta settled for a 0-0 draw against Lecce on Sunday at the Stadio Atleti Azzurri d'Italia.

Atalanta still stayed six points clear of the relegation zone and Lecce, which is 18th after its second straight draw during a three-game winless run.

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.
