09/14/2007 - Wuhan, China (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - After dropping its opener to China on a late goal, Denmark faces an uphill battle to advance out of Group D.
Denmark is ranked sixth in the world - the highest in the group - but already trails China and Brazil by three points. The Danes can take the "first step against New Zealand" on Saturday, coach Kenneth Heiner-Moller told FIFA.com.
A step that has to result in a win with Brazil awaiting in its final game of the group stage.
"The result aside, we played a great game against China and our confidence is still intact," Heiner-Moller said.
Denmark erased a two-goal deficit in the second half against the Chinese as Dot Eggers Nielsen and Cathrine Paaske Sorensen scored. China escaped with all three points thanks to a goal in the 88th minute.
Denmark should be able to put the disappointing loss behind it Saturday. New Zealand was completely dominated in a 5-0 loss to Brazil on Wednesday.
New Zealand rarely had possession of the ball in the first half, and rarely had more than one touch at a time in the second half when Brazil scored four of its goals.
Denmark proved its offense was solid in the loss to China, and that was with its top striker on the bench for the first 75 minutes of the match.
All-time leading scorer Merete Pedersen is nursing an injury, and her status for the match is questionable, but she may just get more rest and hope to be fit for the crucial Brazil match on Wednesday.
"We know that Denmark are a very well-organized side who move the ball around well and work hard up front. They will be tough opponents for sure, but we'll (be) doing everything we can to get something out of this game," New Zealand coach John Herdman told FIFA.com.
New Zealand fell to 0-4 all time in the World Cup with its loss to Brazil. The team was making its first appearance since the inaugural event in 1991.
But it's a game New Zealand has to forget. The team created almost no offense, and looked overmatched. If New Zealand is going to shed the label of the worst team in the tournament - and have any hopes of advancing - it needs a result against Denmark.
"To stay in the tournament we simply have to win and that means we'll be more attack-minded than in our first game," Herdman said.
Denmark and New Zealand have played one other time in the World Cup, a 3-0 win by the Danes in 1991.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses
The 2008 Kentucky Derby has announced a $1-million bonus for this weekend’s 134th ‘Run for the Roses’ and MySportsbook.com is doing the same.
Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details.
According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800).
Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund.
''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.''
Meanwhile, the Derby favorite – Curlin – is going against the odds this year. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.
Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby.
''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.''
Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year.
Asmussen dismissed suggestions that Curlin's lack of racing experience could keep him from the winner's circle.
”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?''
The Kentucky Derby is at 4:04 p.m., ET Saturday.
