Our hopes of besting Paddy this weekend rest in the able hands – and feet – of Liverpool’s mercurial playmaker, Leicester’s imposing centre-back and Tottenham’s talismanic marksman.

Although Philippe Coutinho hasn’t netted in his last five league ties, the Brazilian starlet (17) has attempted seven more shots than Raheem Sterling (10) in the last six Gameweeks and has scored two in three starts in all competitions. Ally this with the fact that the Reds have recorded eight shut-outs in their previous 12 fixtures and we’re willing to take up Paddy’s 15/2 offer on Coutinho to score and Liverpool to keep a clean sheet away to West Brom, parting with £4 in our favourite wager of the week.

Our second bet has us backing Robert Huth to net his second goal in three outings for Leicester City. No Premier League defender has notched as many goal attempts (nine) or penalty box touches (24) as the Stoke City loanee in the last six Gameweeks. With the Foxes facing a Clarets outfit that’s drawn blanks in six of their last seven matches, Paddy’s massive 40/1  odds on Huth to score and Leicester to keep a clean sheet against Burnley is worthy of a £3 investment.

Harry Kane is the target of our final flutter this weekend, as Tottenham Hotspur prepare to lock horns with Southampton at St Mary’s Stadium. The Spurs frontman banished a two-match dry spell last time out against Newcastle United and ranks second among all forwards in terms of goal attempts (eight) in the last two Gameweeks. Kane has tallied a brace or more on five occasions this term and we’re backing him to repeat the feat, placing the remaining £3 on Paddy’s 55/1 offer on Kane to score two or more goals and Tottenham to keep a clean sheet against Southampton.

  2. Tom Tom

    Hi all. I'm on a WC. How's this for a chasing team? Any suggested changes?

    Schmichel - K Davis
    Schlupp - Terry - Moreno - (Duff) - (Alder)
    Fab - Haz - Cout - Ster - (King)
    Kun - N'Doye - Murray

    I have 6.1m ITB. Just enough for Murray - Giroud and Fab - Sánchez over the next two gameweeks. Cheers.

    1. drughi
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      very good and nice plan for coming weeks

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Looks good. I would consider doing murray to giroud now to save a transfer in future?

    3. Tom Tom
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Thank you both

  3. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years

    1. Emp
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

  5. There's Always One!
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Is costa over Vardy worth a gamble?

    Jose say he will play v Leicester and I can't see Vardy doing much v Chelsea?

    1. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      If you think costa will score more than 4 points overnthe two games then yes

    2. Tommytour
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I'd gamble yes

      Easy route to Giroud too

    3. athreya
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Depends on transfers planned for arsenal DGW. Costa Kun and sanchez could be difficult to fit in.

      1. There's Always One!
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Giroud Kun and Sanchez for me for that dgw

    Are all your chips on Liverpool defence or midfield?

  10. Zombie
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Is Ramsey as good an option as (or better than) Sanchez, till the end of season?

  11. John Obi Wan Mikel
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Who's your captain then? Had the armband on skrtel but chickened out and went hazard

  12. zuzuViking
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Whats the probability Azpi will play both games?

    Yes he is in form, but Jose might rotate?

  13. Baz
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    why is vardy in so many teams?! 3 goals all season, and a lot shipping kane for him -4. must be missing something..

        playing two fairly solid defensive teams

    4. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Hard mentaility in full swing

    5. JoeJitzu +42

    6. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      3 goals all season, but how many appearances?

      1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Too many

      2. Baz
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        has missed 4 games.

        1. Jairzinho
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Ahh really... I thought less!

          1. Jairzinho
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            10 years, 10 months ago

            I mean I thought he'd played less.

            Missed more (through injury I thought)

      3. Somalion
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        28

        or 1762 minutes if you prefer.

    7. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Conveniently ignoring the assists? Decent recent form for both player and team too.

  14. Bullet Tooth Toney
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Moses > Cambiasso

    or

    Remy > Vardy

    Either of these worth -4?

    Can't remember feeling this stuck over a transfer for a while!

  15. BobbyV
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Mata to Coutinho or Henderson for -4?
    Already have Sterling

    1. Emp

  16. Feed tha Sheep
    • 13 Years

    2. Whazza
      • 13 Years

      Nobody knows for sure

      1. Feed tha Sheep
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Safer to get Coutinho then?

        1. Whazza
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          I'd say so, but I'm going for both

  17. Ten Season Wonder
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Silva likely to play???

    1. Baz

  18. leo_messi
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Remy to:

    A) Vardy -4
    B) Giroud for -4
    C) keep him (Boyd or Toby fitst on the bench)

    1. RiflaFC
      • 12 Years

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          • 16 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

  22. Jubilanus / BSC Small Boys …
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Whats the issue with sterling? Is he likely to start both Games. Am chasing and was gonna go captain but am now thinking twice after this scaremongering.

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      There is no issue

  23. John Smith

      1. Whazza
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

  28. Vman
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Why are few doubting Sterling to start surely with the woes Liverpool are haveing with the front line Sterling, Hendo And Coutinho are a must to start.

  29. Fplnooob
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    is this -12 hit wise?

    Eriksen/Remy/Clyne/Fonte/Foster >
    Sterling/Vardy/Skrtel/Ivanovic/Schmeicel

  30. Pedram
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Is anyone here thinking Aguero could score more points than Hazard ?

    I have a feeling he'll run riot against Aston Villa.

    1. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I think Villa are tougher than earlier in the season. The answer would be to captain Aguero and see.

    2. Vman
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Check my earlier Posts IMO yes and i am putting C band on him too.

    3. skeanos
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Villa on form. City are not. Result against west ham but nothing had changed.
