Ancelotti rejects title talk

Soccer Betting Lines

04/27/2009 - Milan, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti still believes the Serie A title is Inter Milan's to lose despite his side's 3-0 victory over Palermo on Sunday.

Milan took advantage of a rare Inter loss against Napoli to move up to second place in the table and within seven points of the leaders.

But despite suggestions that the race for the Scudetto is back on, Ancelotti still believes that Inter will claim a third straight league title.

"We are not thinking about Inter," he said.

"We are just trying to keep the fourth-placed side, which is Fiorentina at the moment, as far away as possible.

"We are nine points clear now and this means we have done a good job over the past few weeks. This is our only thought."

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.
