02/10/2012 - Dunfermline, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dunfermline will try to snap a pair of negative streaks on Saturday when the club hosts second-place Rangers.
In the last 30 meetings between the two teams, Dunfermline has managed just one win, while the club's first 12 home games this season have yet to yield a victory.
But despite its struggles at home, Dunfermline enters the weekend level on points with Hibernian at the bottom of the league following a 1-1 draw with Kilmarnock on Thursday.
The club had lost eight of its previous nine games before Thursday's result, and things will get significantly more difficult at East End Park on Saturday against a Rangers side that continues to chase Celtic at the top of the league.
Ally McCoist's men have earned 10 points from their last four games but still trail the Hoops by four points, and were bounced from the Scottish Cup last weekend after losing 2-0 to Dundee United.
Celtic advanced to the final of the Scottish Cup after beating Inverness last weekend and the two sides will get together again on Saturday with the Hoops riding a 13-game winning streak in SPL play.
Aberdeen climbed into the top half of the league after losing once in nine games and the Dons will try to hand Hibernian its fourth defeat in five matches at Easter Road, where Hibs has claimed only one win in the league this campaign.
Hearts has been outscored 5-0 in its last two games, both losses, and will try to rebound at Kilmarnock, which is winless in three games.
Dundee United visits McDiarmid Park in eighth place, but following a win over Rangers in the Scottish Cup, while St Johnstone attempts to move into the top four with its fourth win in six games.
Motherwell is six points clear in third place and has won two straight games following a five-match winless streak, while St Mirren will host the Steelmen and is in the midst of a five-game winless streak of its own.

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.
Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.
Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.
The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
