Our regular Saturday morning wake-up call finds us peering through Paddy Power’s window to decipher their reckoning on how and where the goals will be scored for the Gameweek.

Before we scan their odds for Anytime Goalscorer and Clean Sheets, we should give you the heads up on a pair of stellar offers set up by our bookmaker friends for this weekend.

New Paddy Power accounts can take advantage of huge odds of 25/1 on a treble that backs Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea for wins in the Gameweek. You’ll also get your money back as a free bet if that treble loses.

Secondly, Paddy have a Sunday special, with 8/1 offered on both Watford and Palace to score in their Vicarage Road clash. Again, you’ll get your money back via a bet if you lose out.

Be sure to check the teams and conditions on all those offers and, of course, we should state that all these specials are only available to those aged 18. If you’re going to wager, always gamble responsibly.

ANYTIME GOALSCORER ODDS – GAMEWEEK 7

Player Team Odds
Martial MUN 1.61
Rooney MUN 1.72
Aguero MCI 1.83
Sturridge LIV 1.90
Sanchez ARS 2.10
Giroud ARS 2.10
Walcott ARS 2.10
Depay MUN 2.10
Wilson (James) MUN 2.25
Falcao CHE 2.40
Remy CHE 2.40
Origi LIV 2.40
Ings LIV 2.40
Mata MUN 2.40
Fellaini MUN 2.40
Iheanacho MCI 2.50
Kane TOT 2.70

A resurgent Manchester United outfit has a strong showing in Paddy’s assessment, with Anthony Martial – who’s notched three goals in two outings since his switch to the Premier League – the favourite to score in the Gameweek at 1.61. Ahead of the Red Devils’ home tie against a Sunderland side that’s ranked top for goals conceded (13) this term, Wayne Rooney (1.72) places second on the leaderboard. Memphis Depay (2.10) and James Wilson (2.25) also feature in the top 10, with the bookmaker covering their bases against the floundering Black Cats.

Sergio Aguero is knocked off his perch, then, but handed short odds (1.83) to record his second league goal of the campaign during a trip to Tottenham Hotspur. Manchester City’s prime marksman bagged eight goals in his past four meetings with the North London club so will fancy his chances to score at White Hart Lane.

Back from injury and seeking full match sharpness, Daniel Sturridge (1.90) will look to get off the mark at home to Aston Villa, having made his first start of the season against Norwich City. The Reds frontman carded just two goal attempts last Gameweek but will be encouraged by the fact that the Villains have shipped five goals in their previous two road clashes.

Alexis Sanchez is the top ranked midfielder in Paddy’s list. Together with Olivier Giroud and Theo Walcott, the Arsenal trio are all tipped at 2.10 as the Gunners gear up for a trip to Leicester City. Arsene Wenger’s side sit top of the league for attempts (121), shots inside the box (83) and big chances but have just four goals to their name. The Foxes are yet to register a clean sheet, though, which serves as a boost for Arsenal’s attacking credentials.

In the absence of Diego Costa, Radamel Falcao and Loic Remy are priced at 2.40 on the eve of a visit to Newcastle. Regardless of who Jose Mourinho elects to start, the chosen striker will fancy their chances against a Magpies rearguard that’s failed to keep a clean sheet in three home fixtures. Eden Hazard is placed just outside our table with odds on 2.75 on an anytime goal at St James’ Park.

CLEAN SHEET ODDS – GAMEWEEK 7

Team Odds
Manchester United 1.72
Liverpool 2.10
Chelsea 2.37
Southampton 2.50
Manchester City 2.87
West Ham 2.87
Watford 2.87
Everton 2.87

Manchester United (1.72) are the favourites by some margin to record a shut-out as they face off against a Sunderland attack that’s drawn back-to-back blanks. Liverpool (2.10) are next in line ahead of the Villains’ visit, despite conceding seven goals in their previous three outings. 

Chelsea (2.37) claimed their first clean sheet of the campaign against Arsenal last Gameweek and are pitted against a Newcastle side that’s scored one goal in the last five Gameweeks. Although they conceded three goals against Man United, Southampton (2.50) boast three clean sheets in four matches ahead of Swansea City’s visit.

There are a quartet of clubs (Man City, West Ham, Watford, Everton) priced at 2.87 to rebuff their opponent’s advances. Manuel Pellegrini’s rearguard will be tested at White Hart Lane, although Spurs have just three league goals in their last four outings and have scored more than one goal in the league just once, back in the Gameweek 2 draw with Stoke. Meanwhile, West Ham’s odds look a little generous given that they host a Norwich outfit that’s only failed to score in one league outing this term.

The Watford backline is yet to be breached at home this season ahead of the Eagles’ visit to Vicarage Road. Elsewhere, the Toffees travel to face a Baggies attack that’s only netted in one match-up at the Hawthorns this campaign.

    Think I'll go Myhill over Butland despite the latter's potent assist threat.

      You want walcott. Leicester conceded 16 shots to spurs at home a few weeks ago.

      1. Somalion
        11 years, 27 days ago

        Perhaps I want Alexis 😉

        Already made my one FT so hanging onto the second for next week, should Sanchez manage another blank.

          Who are you captaining?

          1. Somalion
            11 years, 27 days ago

            Think I'm going to give Kun the armband. Not firm on that yet, though. You?

              Sanchez or kun. Cant make my mind up on which one though

              1. Somalion
                11 years, 27 days ago

                It is difficult. Have flirted with the thought of Alexis as well, but Arsenal have worried me with how they have looked. City look good, mostly, so I'd be less concerned about the team playing pants. Then again, the Hammers had a right go at that theory...

                1. Camp No No
                  11 years, 27 days ago

                  Yeah, but that match... come on.

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      11 years, 27 days ago

      🙂

    3. HVT
      11 years, 27 days ago

      At this rate I'd expect Butland to acrue at least 6 assists, tho his lack of goal threat worries me.

      1. Somalion
        11 years, 27 days ago

        This is true, but then he is a cheapie 😉

        1. HVT
          11 years, 27 days ago

          Agree, tho seems when Walters is not on the pitch he's next in line for penos fwiw.

  2. mattyrobinson
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Can't believe Stoke are 6/4 v Bournemouth at home!

    1. Kevtheotter
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Chelsea are 4/6 to beat Newcastle and West Ham 6/5 at home to beat Norwich!!! lovely 7/2 double

  3. Tomlette Greggs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Would you play the AOA chip to start this team (subs below)?

    McCarthy
    Kolarov, Francis
    Mahrez, de Bruyne, Payet, Sanchez, Pedro
    Wilson, Aguero, Bojan

    Bench: Joe Gomez, Huth, S.Taylor

    or would you start Huth/Gomez and rather not play the chip?

    1. LOCO ABREU
      11 years, 27 days ago

      play the chip

    2. Zizoulicious
      11 years, 27 days ago

      AOA.

    3. Sting
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Yes. Gomez won't start, Huth will concede

      1. Tomlette Greggs
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 27 days ago

        cheers Loco, Depay, Sting.

    4. Milner4eva
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Yeah, AOA, then next GW your first priority should be to sort that def out

      1. Tomlette Greggs
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 27 days ago

        yeah, plan to Wildcard after 2 gameweeks. Thanks.

    5. Debauchy
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Yep , just played mine too. Hard to bench Wilson or Mahrez

      1. Tomlette Greggs
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 27 days ago

        precisely.

  4. Garfield1001
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Bench order for the following: Huth (ARS), Gomez (AVL) and Targett (SWA)?

    Opinions appreciated!!!

    1. Les Bleus
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Probably won't matter anyway. T H G

    2. LOCO ABREU
      11 years, 27 days ago

      3,2,1

  5. Kevtheotter
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Just watched highlights of Martial's goals to help my decision whether to take Gomis -4 and did you hear Martin Tyler Scream"Yeeeeeees" when he scored against Liverpool? Is he an open Untied fan?

    1. Takedog1
      11 years, 27 days ago

      think hes just happy for the boy tbh. man u were winning anyway so its not as if it was a last minute winner

    2. Numb
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Normally accused of the opposite. ABU.

      1. Kevtheotter
        11 years, 27 days ago

        Yeah thats what I thought! It was almost emotional

        1. Numb
          11 years, 27 days ago

          Think it was just the context of a young lad under massive pressure, big price tag and already being labelled a waste of money before he kicked a ball

  6. OptimusBlack
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Who to C this GW ??

    A - Mahrez ARS (H)

    B- Martial SUN (H)

    C- Agüero TOT (A)

    1. Les Bleus

      You're asking the wrong forum with B 😀

      B

    2. Zizoulicious

  7. Torres76
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Possible transfers:

    Gomis for Martial

    Thanks all

    1. Punter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 27 days ago

      1. Yes

      I also made these two moves this week. Pedro is overpriced

  8. PINKFISH (SANCTIONED AND GA…
    11 years, 27 days ago

    2.4 on a Hair Bear goal.

    Tx Paddy, I'll have some of that after I've sliced my genitals off.

  9. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    11 years, 27 days ago

    There are two PL guarantees:
    Suarez hammers Norwich
    Aguero hammers Spurs

    1. Milner4eva
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Spurs are better and kun's not as good

    2. Numb
      11 years, 27 days ago

      What's his record like at the Lane?

      1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
        11 years, 27 days ago

        I'll tell you after the game...

        Either way, I have no better choice maybe KDB bit still...

        1. Numb
          11 years, 27 days ago

          You're trying to convince yourself then eh?

          1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
            11 years, 27 days ago

            Kind of, but it is true that Tottenham is his favourite opponent

      2. Somalion
        11 years, 27 days ago

        1 goal last season and 1 goal the season before (but he might have come off at HT then, can't recall)

        1. Numb
          11 years, 27 days ago

          Not exactly compelling.

          1. Somalion
            11 years, 27 days ago

            I'm not a big result history kind of player. But if anything it shows he's capable of scoring against them.

    3. Eden Hazardous
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Blind faith, no matter how passionately expressed, will not suffice. Science for its part will test relentlessly every assumption about the human condition.

      -E. O. Wilson on stats

      1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
        11 years, 27 days ago

        Sanchez captainer?

        You can't captain martial on that basis!

        1. Eden Hazardous
          11 years, 27 days ago

          Hazard (C)
          Based on Newcastle stats too

        2. Sasquatch Slayer

          You can based on Sunderlands stats

          1. Eden Hazardous
            11 years, 27 days ago

            Not on Martial's stats

            1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS

              This

        You gotta have faith - George Michael.

          I have faith but not blind faith

      Thats not true about aguero

      1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
        11 years, 27 days ago

        Yep, it is

    5. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      11 years, 27 days ago

      I'm on my phone but if you google Aguero vs Tottenham it'll show you that this is his favourite opponent.

      It'll also show he's due...his shot conversion is 5%,should be much higher!

    6. Disco Pat
      11 years, 27 days ago

      I'm starting to regret selling Augero to but De Bruyne

    7. 32chickens
      11 years, 27 days ago

      3)hammers hammers hammers

  10. WHY ALWAYS MESUT?
    11 years, 27 days ago

    So my defense has Kolarov, Gomez, Muniesa, Francis and Targett.

    Worried because 3/5 may not play. Not worth a hit to get rid of any right?

    1. ebow14
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Wouldn't say it's worth a hit mate

      2. RubeRx

        11 years, 27 days ago

        my heart says Walcott

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Yeah predicts Hazard will get more points but to captain Sanchez...it has a love afair with Sanchez for sure

  15. Punter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Pick 3 defenders for this week: Kolarov, Cresswell, Souare, Targett, Naughton

    1. ebow14
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Kolarov, Cressweell and Targett

  16. Benteke Fried Chicken
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Play AOA with Ayew or risk playing either Gomez/Targett ?

    Kolarov, Evans (Targett, Gomez, Ward)
    Mahrez, Pedro, Yaya, Barkley, Ayew
    Willson, Aguero, Martial (c)

  17. Jinkys Oars
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Having the same dilemma, lost out in the last few gameweeks by not going with my gut and captaining Mahrez, so going Hazard.

  18. Defcons are for Kinnear
    11 years, 27 days ago

    I had a dream that Martial (c) blanked today

    1. Sasquatch Slayer

        11 years, 27 days ago

        5+ ? yea right

        1. Milner4eva

            id be very surprised... 2-1 either way more likely

    3. Numb
      11 years, 27 days ago

      They've been massively overachieving based on underling stats apparently.

      11 years, 27 days ago

      I'm still tempted to do Diouf to Ighalo... but something is stopping me.

    11 years, 27 days ago

    earlier i was told to start francis between francis & nyom
    but watford have better odds of keeping a cleano, it seems,

    1. 32chickens
      11 years, 27 days ago

      CRY palace have a manager who wants goals rather than CSs
      STO playing like a team without confidence against worldie goalscorers wilson and ritchie

      I'd still play francis but it wont make/break your GW

  26. Nazz
    11 years, 27 days ago

    Good to go everyone?

    Myhill

    Nyom, Kolarov, Zouma

    Gomis, Wilson, Aguero

    Subs: Anya, Targett, Ward

    1. Milner4eva
      11 years, 27 days ago

      Yeah, GL

  27. Egg noodle
    11 years, 27 days ago
