Soccer Betting Lines

07/21/2007 - Carson, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - David Beckham is not expected to start for Los Angeles on Saturday night when the Galaxy host English Premiership power Chelsea in a friendly at The Home Depot Center.

The international superstar has been nursing a left ankle injury all week and is listed as a game-time decision. Even though team officials have stated that he will not start, Beckham is hoping to make his debut with L.A. in the match as a substitute.

"We want to get him on the field as quickly as possible but we don't want to put him in any danger," Galaxy coach Frank Gallop said. "There is always a possibility that he won't play because of his injury but we're never going to force him to play. If he's ready to play, he'll play."

Beckham's ankle was swollen Monday, but the injury had improved slightly in the last few days since the it worsened when Beckham flew from England to the United States last week.

Beckham first injured the ankle playing for England in a Euro 2008 qualifying match last month. He aggravated the injury in his final game for Read Madrid.

Los Angeles needs Beckham before it returns to its Major League Soccer schedule on Aug. 5, at Toronto FC. The Galaxy are fifth in the Western Conference - ahead of only Real Salt Lake.

He signed a five-year deal with L.A. worth $32.5 million, which will total nearly $250 million with endorsements.
