Soccer Betting Lines

02/06/2012 - Dortmund, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Borussia Dortmund midfielder Sven Bender is set to spend the next two weeks on the sidelines because of an ankle injury, the club confirmed.

Bender sustained the injury in Friday's 2-0 win over Nurnberg when he was on the other end of a challenge from Nurnberg's Daniel Didavi and had to be replaced after 23 minutes.

The 22-year-old has suffered a damaged ligament in his left ankle as a result of the tackle, and is now likely to miss league matches with Bayer Leverkusen and Hertha Berlin.

The Germany international has tallied one goal in 14 Bundesliga matches this season having missed time with a fractured jaw.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
