Fantasy Flutter – Gameweek 36

In our quest to outsmart Paddy this Gameweek, we’ve looked to Aston Villa’s red-hot frontman, Manchester City’s twinkle-toed playmaker and the Potters’ long-range specialist.

Our first bet of the weekend has us backing Christian Benteke to perpetuate his astonishing scoring streak. The Belgian hitman recorded ten goals in his last eight starts, bagging a brace last time out against Everton. Ally this with the fact that Villa’s opponents this week, West Ham United, have netted just four goals in the last eight Gameweeks, and Paddy’s 11/1 offer on Benteke to score two or more goals and Villa to keep a clean sheet looks worthy of a £3 investment.

Having drawn blanks in his previous five outings, David Silva is in the midst of a quiet patch on the goal front, yet a home tie against strugglers Queens Park Rangers serves as the perfect catalyst. The R’s have tallied one shut out in their last 10 and failed to score in two of their last three, encouraging us to take up Paddy’s 13/5 odds on Silva to score and City to keep a clean sheet. Indeed, we make this our bet of the week and part with a further £4.

Our final wager in this round of fixtures centres around Stoke City’s Charlie Adam as he gears up for Tottenham Hotspur’s visit on Saturday. The Scottish midfielder has been in prolific form of late, notching three goals in five starts. Meanwhile, the Lilyhwhites have not troubled the scoresheet in four of the past seven Gameweeks, giving us ample reason to capitalise on Paddy’s 12/1 offer for Adam to score and Stoke to keep a clean sheet, handing over our final £3.

    Davis in goal.

    Play Schlupp or Clyne

    (Vardy in bench first sub for Ramsey if he doesn't play)

    1. http.naypex
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      Schlupp

    2. Hamstergod
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Schlupp

    3. Lazarus Star
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      Cheers. I keep flipping between them but a good rule is to play the home defender.

    What's everyone think? Ramsey out for Ozil or wait to see if he plays?

    1. http.naypex

      Tricky

      Keep him and see how it pans out

  9. sinik
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 12 months ago

    bench order?

    Skrtel, Hendo, PvA

    part of me is sneakily tempted for Skrtel first sub as if Liverpool score, it'll likely be from a set piece and not open play and Skrtel could sneak one in.

    also the possibility of an ugly and boring 0-0

    1. Hamstergod
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      I'd agree on the order

    2. http.naypex
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      Yh same order

    3. Lazarus Star
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      Hendo, Skrtel, PVA

      Chelsea won't be easy but they will play open in the middle (as no pressure)

      JT and Ivan will want to hold clean sheets.

      Liverpool need the 3pts so will probably choke (LFC fan)

      1. sinik
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 12 months ago

        so why Hendo first then? just because Liverpool will attack so you're confident of conceding?

        1. Lazarus Star
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 12 months ago

          Think likely to get more points from Hendo that Skrtel. Chelsea good defence on the air so less opportunity for Skrtel set piece. Hendo will hopefully will get more chance in open play. Depends of Gerrard starts though, he plays better when Gerrard not on the pitch (steps up).

          1. sinik
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 12 months ago

            yep..guess as first sub I'll only need him if Rambo is a no show (which is a 50% chance I suppose!)

            thanks Nexus..only other reason I put Skrtel first is that the game could also be a bore 0-0

            1. Lazarus Star
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 12 months ago

              It may be a 0-0 bore but Liverpool will push for the points. Chelsea will not park the bus, there will be a few in midfield wanting to make an impression before summer. I see goals. Maybe 2-2

  10. Hamstergod
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 12 months ago

    For those captaining Benteke over Aguero, what's your reasoning?

    1. JayLegend
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      differential.

      1. Hamstergod
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 12 months ago

        thanks, contemplating switching, but as QPR have a must win game and I expect them to open up at the back , so not really sure. I do expect Benteke to score at least a goal though.

    2. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      chasing and 11 goals in 9 games against a poor West Ham defense

      1. Jax
        • 14 Years

        won't get huge score like last week.

          but he's a beast. on his form, Sherwood knows to just feed him all day.

    1. Hamstergod
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

  14. blues123
    • 11 Years

    Tekkers and Albrighton in for Vardy and Hendo for a hit? currently 16 points behind in ML

    1. JoJoRed
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Do it

    2. Hamstergod
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      Risky, but could pay off. Tekkers certainly has beeter fixtures and forms than Liverpool

  15. Boss Hogg

    Skrtel, Coutinho, Pva

    Is Hazard actually back from Holiday??

    If i should keep or get rid. I can't see Chelsea parking the bus anymore now they are champions.

    1. LOCO ABREU
      • 12 Years

      keep

    2. JoJoRed
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      Haz will want to keep his ever present record and reach 20 goals. Surely Mourinho picks him and he gets at least 60

      1. bring_on _the_fantasy
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 12 months ago

        is he back from Hols though to be picked??

    Looking for a cheap Mid to free up cash for next weeks double.

    Was thinking Gomez but everyone seems to be getting in Albrighton...

    Sure Gomez is a better choice seeing he has a DGW next week?

    1. JoJoRed
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      Gomez may need penos to score.
      Albrighton good for 3 gws

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      larsson may be better than gomez

      then again, they may all just get 4 points for the double game week

      1. bring_on _the_fantasy
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 12 months ago

        if you look as larssons past 10 games he has done nothing!

      1. DeadStarComing
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 12 months ago

        I have Kane at the mo but could put Giroud in for free. Great to have you back here Doosra!

    2. Punty
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 12 months ago

      Kane more explosive but maybe more chance of blanking too

  28. Cesc in the city

    1. Heels_Over_Head

      ozil at home if you're shipping sterling

    2. Danstoke82
