Tennis Betting Lines
05/08/2010 - Estoril, Portugal (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Reigning champion Albert Montanes will have a chance to defend his title at the clay-court Estoril Open after ousting top-seeded and world No. 1 Roger Federer on Saturday in the semifinals.
The fourth-seeded Montanes took a 6-2, 7-6 (7-5) victory in a little under 1 1/2 hours to drop Federer, who won this tournament in 2008. It is Montanes' first win in four tries against Federer, the 16-time major champion and reigning Australian Open, Wimbledon and French Open titlist.
In the final, Montanes will face Portuguese crowd favorite Frederico Gil, who defeated fifth-seeded Spaniard Guillermo Garcia-Lopez, 6-2, 5-7, 6-3 to advance.
Gil will appear in his first-ever ATP final, while Montanes will contest the eighth final of his career. Montanes is 3-4 in career title matches, and won his only previous match against Gil.

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.
