Arsenal's Rosicky out until March

Soccer Betting Lines

12/08/2008 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Arsenal midfielder Tomas Rosicky will not be back in action until March at the earliest as he continues his comeback from a long-term hamstring injury.

The 27-year-old Czech Republic international has not been seen in a Gunners shirt since January and will definitely complete an entire calendar year on the sidelines, according to manager Arsene Wenger.

"He's doing rehab at the moment," the Frenchman told the club's official website. "He's back here on December 17 and then hopefully we can start to work with him.

"But it's a long-term prospect - maybe March at the earliest."

However, Wenger has been boosted by the imminent return from injury of Eduardo.

The Croatia striker is poised to resume reserve-team action just 10 months after suffering a horrific double leg break.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
