The Fantasy Flutter – Gameweek 4

1,620 Comments
Share

We target a trio of players with plum home matches on their agendas this weekend in our attempt to get the better of Paddy.

Our first stop is at Selhurst Park as Neil Warnock prepares for the first home match of his second stint at the helm. Having grabbed a late equaliser off the bench in the last Gameweek, Wilfried Zaha looks poised for a start as Palace entertain promoted Burnley, and with Paddy offering 8/1 on Zaha to score and the hosts to keep a clean sheet, we’re willing to throw £3 their way.

Next up we head to St Mary’s, where Ronald Koeman’s side go in search of their first home win of the season. The Saints’ 3-1 victory at West Ham in the previous Gameweek certainly suggests they are finding their form, and with a goal in each of his last two in all competitions, Graziano Pelle has caught the eye. Paddy are offering 16/1 on Pelle to score two or more against Newcastle and the Saints to chalk up a second clean sheet in succession in front of their own supporters – we fancy a punt on this one and shell out another £3.

We leave our final £4 for Liverpool’s Anfield clash with Villa. The absence of Daniel Sturridge will be sorely felt by the Merseysiders and instantly hands Mario Balotelli the chance to shine in front of his own supporters – with Paddy willing to offer 6/1 on Balotelli to score two or more goals and Brendan Rodgers’ side to bag a clean sheet, we place our faith in the Italian and make this our bet of the week.

        I would be concerned that City rock up with 4-5-1.

        This formation hampers the forward runs of the midfield, which Arsenal thrive on, leaving them vulnerable to pacy counterattacks. I would be concerned that Dzeko is a 30 minute man this week, although I do see City getting a result, so he may get some points.

        Falcao starting likely means Mata is benched. I think this would crush his confidence greatly, at a time when it appears he is not full of confidence. I am not sure LVG would intentionally do this. Therefore I would pick Rooney.

          - I would be concerned about Bruce starting, which gives you a bad matchup from the bench.
          -I think it is a week to early for Falcao, but I am not certain of this, I just think there is more overall benefit for LVG to bring him on from the bench in his first game.
          - You have 2 Chelsea defenders and a Swansea attacker. This is counterintuitive.
          - I think Sanchez out is a good move, I have done this myself this week, but to me Sterling seems better than Mirallas .
