MLS All Star Game Betting: Manchester United vs MLS Odds

Sir Alex Ferguson is beyond a legend in England as the coach of the famed Manchester United of the English Premier League. Ferguson for those that might not know is actually a knighted “Sir” and the most respected coach in the world. Tonight he will lead his Manchester United in soccer betting odds vs the best in the USA in the MLS All Star game at 8:30pm EST on ESPN2. The “Red Devils” used to play their “friendly” games in Europe but decided to play vs MLS teams this year with the improved quality of the league being the main reason why. Online bookmakers have Manchester United -155 favorites with and over/under total of 2.5 OVER (-165).

“The progress is obvious,” said Sir Alex Ferguson this week. “We’ve realized that in the game against Philadelphia and in the match against Kansas City. There is massive improvement in the organizational side, and the standard of play has certainly improved,” Ferguson added as Kansas City pulled off a stunning 2-1 upset of Manchester United on Sunday. Manchester United will be missing some key players in soccer odds for tonight's MLS All Star game including Wayne Rooney, the frustrated star of the England World Cup team who is taking time off to rest.

The 2010 MLS All Star roster will also have complications as the Los Angeles Galaxy and FC Toronto will have players involved in the CONCACAF Champions League. This has concerned other MLS players and coaches about having to play the full 90 in their MLS games that follow the All Star Game. Ferguson continued to lavish praise on American soccer and national team coach Bob Bradley, who is linked to a potential job in the Premier League. “I like Bob, I like his approach. He’s got a steely determination about him, and he’s got a lot of detail in his coaching. He did a fantastic job. I am surprised that they have not sprinted over to his house and get him to sign a new contract.”
