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.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
