Home Over Half Lille

Soccer Betting Lines

Paris, France (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - PSG squandered a chance to take over the top spot in Ligue 1 on Sunday after being held to a 0-0 draw at home by Lille. PSG entered the weekend level with Montpellier at the summit, but had a chance to take over sole possession of the top spot after Montpellier's 1-1 draw with Toulouse on Saturday.

 

PSG's Kevin Gameiro had a good chance in the first half to put his team in front when he was played free by Javier Pastore, only to fire wide of the net.

 

Bordeaux 1, Sochaux 0

 

Bordeaux, France - Bordeaux's good form at home continued on Sunday as the club secured a 1-0 win over Sochaux at the Stade Chaban Dalmas.

 

Sochaux has now earned one of a possible 15 points from its last five matches and sits one point above the drop zone.

 

The visitors created the better chances over the course of 90 minutes but were punished in the 83rd minute when Johan Cavalli's cross was converted by Diawara, handing Rennes a defeat that keeps the club in seventh place.

 

Glasgow, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Celtic is facing charges from UEFA for the second time in two months as the club is being charged with two offenses related to the Europa League match against Udinese in Italy. UEFA has confirmed that Celtic is being charged with "the displaying of a banner of an offensive nature and the setting off of fireworks by supporters."

 

Celtic had just recently been fined nearly $20,000 for "illicit chanting" involving pro-IRA songs during a Europa League match against Rennes at home when the club's fans held up a banner that insulted UEFA at the Udinese match.

 

Naples, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Napoli will be without forward Ezequiel Lavezzi for the next month after he sustained a thigh injury in his club's 3-1 defeat to Roma on Sunday. The Argentina international will now miss Wednesday's match with Genoa and will likely be unavailable for the club's first few games following the winter break, which include away matches at Palermo and Siena as well as a home fixture against Bologna.

Big 12 Conference betting odds

Work left to do: Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Kansas State

Texas joins Texas A&M and Kansas as locks after getting league win No. 11. Texas Tech greatly helped its own hopes and crippled OK State's with the two-point win Saturday. Is K-State the last reasonable hopeful? Could be an elimination match in Stillwater on Tuesday, at least for the Cowboys.

Work left to do:

Texas Tech [18-11 (7-7), RPI: 44, SOS: 12] A critical two-point win over OK State leaves the Red Raiders with Baylor and at Iowa State left. Get both and the Red Raiders likely are good to go. Get one and there could be some interesting comparisons with a K-State team that could finish two or three games "ahead" of them in the standings but doesn't have any of the quality wins Texas Tech has. Not a lot in nonconference play (against Arkansas in Little Rock being the best win, by far) to lean on.

Oklahoma State [18-9 (5-8), RPI: 50, SOS: 35] Still without a road win, the Cowboys now need to win two on the road just to get to .500 in conference play. It's hard to recall a team (OK, other than Clemson) falling so precipitously from lock status to almost certainly out of the NCAAs at this point. There are wins to be had in the last three, including a very big home game against K-State on Tuesday, but this team is reeling. Can you tell the pressure to win is getting to them with the way the final possession played out at Texas Tech? There are some good nonconference performances to lean on, specifically beating Missouri State and Syracuse on neutral floors and Pitt in OK City, but if the Pokes don't right this very, very soon, that won't be enough.

Kansas State [20-9 (9-5), RPI: 56, SOS: 96] It pays to be in the Big 12 North. The nine league wins are Colorado (twice), Missouri (twice), Iowa State (twice), Baylor, Nebraska and (a good one against) Texas. That helps explain the middling computer profile. The win over USC is nice, but the nonconference leaves a lot to be desired. The game at OK State in Stillwater on Tuesday is huge, as it could KO the Cowboys and leave K-State with a home date against Oklahoma with which to work.
