MLS Friday

8pm Red Bulls vs Houston Dynamo -  Take last week's results and flip it. That would be all the explanation needed but I will continue: Houston and NY are the league's only two undefeated home teams at this point of the season. The guys at MLS Extratime might have insinuated something about the Red Bulls which seems relevant: What's the point of killing yourself away from home, in 90 degree temperatures, when we could just get them at home? For some reason it seems that since the summer kicked in (literally, June 17th) they haven't won an away game, but they have still kept up with the pack heading into fall with a bunch of home victories. I thought it might've been the typical Red Bulls "summer slump" but in the last two years they were dropping points at home, so that couldn't be it. Houston have won 1 away game in 10, and that was at TFC who were looking forward to their CCL game midweek. Anyway, Red Bulls are a completely different team at home, and we have their away performances and last weeks game to thank for them being + money straight up tonight, which you should take whenever it is there. Or better still give yourself the insurance.

Red Bulls NTL +109/+253

Bol - where did you get that line from?  I only see +106ml and pk,1/2 at -129...

+253 is for the draw

love this draw

Dempsey - if you're betting NTL through +109 / +253, isn't that like a PK -180 bet?  I think that's what you're saying but just making sure.

Pretty much. Let's wave goodbye at ever getting NY at home plus money the rest of the season...

great insight into mls, thanks Demps keep up the good work

Yup, same here.  Great call as always...
