Tottenham reaffirms CL ambitions

Soccer Betting Lines

03/13/2010 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tottenham took another step towards a top- four finish on Saturday as the club downed Blackburn, 3-1, at White Hart Lane behind two goals from Roman Pavlyuchenko.

Jermain Defoe put Spurs in front right before halftime, and Pavlyuchenko doubled the lead 10 minutes after the break before a goal from Christopher Samba reduced the lead to one. However, Pavlyuchenko struck for the second time with five minutes to play to lock up all three points.

Tottenham leads fifth-placed Manchester City by three points, although City has two games in hand, while Blackburn is still 10 points clear of the relegation zone and appears to be relatively safe.

Rovers had to use up a substitution only 26 minutes into the game when goalkeeper Paul Robinson had to leave with a leg injury and was replaced by Jason Brown, who needed to be alert to keep out Benoit Assou-Ekotto's shot.

Brown was able to parry an effort from Defoe to keep the game scoreless, but the Spurs striker found the net shortly before the break when Vedran Corluka flicked a ball on to the far post for Defoe to finish off.

A counter-attack opportunity led to Tottenham doubling the lead after the break as Defoe laid a pass of to Pavlyuchenko for the Russian to fire home, while Gareth Bale had two penalty appeals turned down as the hosts tried to increase their lead.

Blackburn set up a tense finish 10 minutes from time when Samba headed home a corner kick from Morten Gamst Pedersen, but it took only five minutes for Pavlyuchenko to restore the two-goal edge when he got on the other end of a great low cross from Bale to score from a few yards out.

Chelsea returned to the top of the Premiership table with a 4-1 win over West Ham as Didier Drogba scored twice, while Arsenal snuck past 10-man Hull City, 2-1, with a stoppage-time winner from Nicklas Bendtner.

Birmingham and Everton played to a 2-2 draw at St. Andrews, Bolton thrashed Wigan, 4-0, Aston Villa was held to a 0-0 draw by Stoke City and Wolverhampton grabbed three vital points with a 2-1 triumph at Turf Moor over Burnley.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
