Italy and Ukraine even after opening day at Fed Cup
Tennis Betting Lines
02/04/2012 -
Biella, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Italy and the Ukraine are surprisingly even
after Saturday's opening singles matches of their Fed Cup quarterfinal.
The matchups and home court clearly favored the Italians and Sara Errani gave
the hosts the first point with a 6-2, 6-3 thumping of Kateryna Bondarenko.
With former French Open champ Francesca Schiavone set for Saturday's second
match, it appeared the Italians would have a big edge heading to Sunday.
Enter Lesia Tsurenko.
Ranked 121st in the world, Tsurenko not only drew the Ukrainians even, she
completely dominated the 11th-ranked Schiavone in a 6-1, 6-2 rout. Schiavone
committed 42 unforced errors and managed a mere 10 winners in the 71-minute
dismantling.
Schiavone will have a chance to make amends in the first reverse singles match
on Sunday against Bondarenko. Tsurenko and Errani are slated to meet in the
second match of the day. The scheduled doubles match will pit Errani and
Roberta Vinci against Olga Savchuk and Yuliya Beygelzimer.
Italy has won three of the last six Fed Cup titles, including back-to-back
crowns in 2009-10. The Italians are also 3-0 all-time against the Ukraine in
Fed Cup play.
This weekend's winner will meet the Czech Republic-Germany victor in April's
semifinals.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value
If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).
For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.
TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.
"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,' it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."
"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.
Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
