Back from the international break, we turn to Paddy Power once again in search of a bookmakers perspective on where the goals will and won’t be scored over the Gameweek.

Before we dip into their Clean Sheet and Anytime Scorer odds, those without a Paddy account should know that there’s another raft of big offers on show to cater for your fluttering needs.

First up, Paddy’s regular weekend acca is offering new customers a massive 18/1 on wins for Arsenal, Man City, Juventus and Bayern Munich. This bet also comes in tandem with the offer of a free £10 bet every Monday for the rest of the season when you bet £10 weekly.

Next up, Paddy have two big live matches covered. In this evening’s big Etihad clash, you can get odds of 12/1 on a Man City win over Liverpool with both teams scoring. Meanwhile in Sunday’s encounter at the Lane, Paddy are dangling odds of 5/1 on a Spurs win over West Ham.

Seemingly guaranteed a start against Liverpool by Manuel Pellegrini, Sergio Aguero is immediately re-instated at the top of Paddy’s anytime scorer rankings – a sight that will no doubt become familiar over the coming weeks.

While the Argentine seems unlikely to get a 90 minute run-out on his return from a hamstring injury, Paddy clearly feel that Aguero will take little time to find his groove – even against an improved Liverpool side. Aguero’s team-mate, Kevin de Bruyne, is out at 2.40 – the second ranked midfielder in Paddy’s table.

Harry Kane pushes Aguero very close. The Spurs striker is priced at 1.83 for an anytime goal in Sunday’s London derby with West Ham, having netted five in his last three outings. While the Hammer’s boast strong away form, it should be noted that their defence has failed to earn a clean sheet since Gameweek 5.

Although he’s notched just two goals in 10 starts, Diego Costa (2.00) is handed short odds ahead of Chelsea’s favourable Stamford Bridge match-up against Norwich City. While Chelsea and Costa are struggling for form, only Bournemouth (13) have conceded more goals than the Canaries (nine) over the last four Gamweeks.

Romelu Lukaku and Jamie Vardy are both tipped at 2.10 for their ties against Aston Villa and Newcastle respectively. The Everton striker will fancy his chances of scoring for the third successive outing when Remi Garde’s men roll up to Goodison Park off the back of one win in 12. Meanwhile, the white-hot Vardy could equal Ruud van Nistelrooy’s 10-match scoring streak with a goal at St James’ Park, although fitness doubts surrounding a hip injury linger ahead of today’s encounter.

Southampton’s Graziano Pelle is tied with Arsenal duo Alexis Sanchez and Olivier Giroud at 2.20. The Saint’s striker has claimed four goals in six St Mary’s starts to this point but has notched just once in his last four and is up against a Stoke City outfit in fine form. Mark Hughes men arrive on the south coast having kept three consecutive clean sheets on the road.

Meanwhile, Sanchez and Giroud lock horns with West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns. While the Baggies defence has kept six shut-outs this season, no team has shipped more goals on home turf (12), which suggests that the Gunners’ attacking contingent may well be afforded a bevy of clear-cut opportunities. Giroud has three goals in his last four league starts, while Sanchez is the top ranked midfielder in Paddy’s listing, despite blanking in his last three outings.

TeamOdds
Chelsea2.00
Southampton2.00
Everton2.10

Arsenal2.10
Manchester United2.25
Tottenham2.40
Manchester City2.50

Chelsea and Southampton (both 2.00) have been pinpointed by Paddy as the top defences heading into Gameweek 13.

The Blues’ case is bolstered by the fact they’ve surrendered just three big chances in the last four Gameweeks, while the Saints square up to a Potters outfit thats in strong defensive form, but remains joint-bottom for goals scored (10) so far this season.

Everton, Crystal Palace and Arsenal are priced a little longer (both 2.10) for their head-to-heads.

The Toffees will be encouraged by the revelation that Villa tallied the fewest shots on target (six) across the previous four Gameweeks. Meanwhile, Palace are matched up against a Sunderland side that places second-bottom for shots inside the box (64) this term. Finally, Arsenal make the trip to take on West Brom having conceded just 30 shots from inside their penalty area on the road – the fewest of any Premier League side.

Manchester United (2.25) will look to secure their fifth successive clean sheet when they travel to Watford, while Tottenham (2.29) will do well to rebuff the advances of a Hammers outfit that’s only drawn one blank this campaign.

Propping up Paddy’s table, Man City (2.40) will strive to register their first shut-out in five home matches when Liverpool pay a visit; Jurgen Klopp’s side have registered five goals in their last three outings.

      How does that goal record work? Will Vardy still have a chance to tie it if he doesn't play today?

      1. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Yes

      2. King Kav. QC at law

        He's English so everyone will bend the rules to give him the best chance of breaking the record.

        Its how many games you score in consecutively, so if you don't play then obviously that game doesnt count.

      I must be totally missing something with so many wanting (C) Sanchez

      Is it because..., surely he must be "due"?

        Check out WBA defensive stats, specifically from their right flank.

            http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/10071/

            Sort by crosses conceded (right) and chances conceded (center)

            I'm not capping him but I can see the appeal. I expect Arsenal to have 65%+ possession in this game and will create chances. Just a matter of how many they will put away.

      Pages are flying fast. Repost:

      Whom to bench:

      Vardy, Pelle, Sanchez, Lukaku, KdB or Yaya?

      Cabaye is my captain, and Mahrez vice captain.

      1. Jazz!
        • 11 Years

        I'd say KDB.

          What is the ideal frontline from now on?

          Many of us are scrambling to get Kun either this or next week. The question is what would be the ideal front line starting from next week (if we forget budget issues).

          I first thought that with Kun - Kane - Lukaku would be ideal until GW 19, and Vardy would be the one to give room. However, looking at the stats, Vardy actually has by far the best underlying stats for any forward, with Kane/Giroud vying for second place, and Lukaku some ways behind.

          Lukaku however, has an amazing schedule until the end of the year. (bou, CPA, nor, LEI, new, STK)
          Kane's schedule is not that bad either (CHE, wba, NEW, sou, NOR, wat)
          Vardy, however, has quite a difficult run of fixtures going forward (MUN, swa, CHE, eve, liv, MCY)

          So, what do you think is the ideal front line from next GW to the end of the year?

          A) Kun, Vardy, Lukaku
          B) Kun, Vardy, Kane
          C) Kun, Kane, Lukaku

            Aguero Kane Vardy imo

            1. Jazz!
              • 11 Years

              This.

          2. Jazz!
            • 11 Years

            B for balance, IMO.

            B for me

            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 15 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Aguero, Kane, Lukaku

            But I wouldn't rule Vardy out just yet.

          5. d1sable
            • Has Moderation Rights
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Ighalo still an option

              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 15 Years
              10 years, 3 months ago

              Boo - don't say that. Would have made Aguero next week so easy.

              Instead I brought Kane in...

          6. King Kav. QC at law
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Ighalo, Aguero, Sturridge.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Theoretically C - but harder to balance rest of the squad so realistically I'd say B.

          8. Ron_Swanson
            • 15 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            B

          9. simosalminen
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Thanks for all the replies!

            I want to do B myself, but moving Lukaku away with a schedule like that just seems sheer lunacy. Will still probably do it as It enables a good defense/midfield, unless he scores a brace or any of the others get injured or Vardy gets carded (any of which are quite likely).

            I think Ighalo is an option, both talent and stat wise, but his long term schedule is a bit of a turn off. Next three games after this GW are great though.

        6. Plagued by indecision

          Please RMT... Wish I could have afforded Aguero.

          Hennessey
          Kolarov / Van Dijk / Dier

          Guys, Aguero+Deulofeu for KDB +Pelle for the next round? It is a bit urgent, because after Aguero's prise rises tonight, I cannot afford it any more.

              is it easy though? He will either play 90 mins or 0 mins (in which case my first sub comes in)

          Foolish to start Ward over Sagna?

            Yeah I think so. He could get a fitness cameo

          Anyone else taking a risk on not getting Aguero? I mean long term. I'm in that boat, sink or swim. It'll be very satisfying if it works out.

            • 15 Years

            I didn't get him this week at least....

          2. Milner4eva
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            I'm keeping my options open on this, really not sure what the right way to go is

          3. Rake
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Didn't get him this week. Won't be getting next week either. Maybe after that but still reluctant as he takes time to find his stride after injury.

          4. Nomar
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Not getting him in this week.

            Next week he has a tricky game too, so I think you may be able to survive 2 weeks without him.

            Only problem is his price will rise this week, probably at least twice, which then impacts which enabler you get to help you afford Aguero when you want to get him back.

            10 years, 3 months ago

            Sergio brace today and you'll soon change your tune.

            Either that or you'll need a massive couch going forward and probably lots of toilet roll too....

          7. MTPockets
              10 years, 3 months ago

              Yeah but in my case can't see him getting 8pts more than Pelle. Next week he's probably in.

            • 14 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            what team to choose a defender for the following few weeks. will mean a hit this week as getting in for Sakho:

            Spurs Everton Southampton

            1. Jazz!
              • 11 Years
              10 years, 3 months ago

              Spurs

          9. NATSTER
            • 15 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            So tough. One to bench from these four.

            A: Mane
            B: Pelle
            C: Mahrez
            D: Vardy

            Which one?

            1. Jazz!
              • 11 Years
              10 years, 3 months ago

              A)

            2. NATSTER
              • 15 Years
              10 years, 3 months ago

              Or bench KDB ?

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              10 years, 3 months ago

              B, imo.

                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 10 Years
                10 years, 3 months ago

                Would bench B as well, i own all of them.

              2. Jimbo123
                • 16 Years
                10 years, 3 months ago

                This. If I knew Mane was starting, I would definitely play him ahead of Pelle.

            • 12 Years

            Would you drop Sanchez or KDB to get Aguero?
            I also have Ozil and Bellerin but no other City cover.

            1. Ha.
              • 10 Years

              Dropping KDB

            i) Kane
            ii) Mahrez
            iii) Bolasie
            iiiiiiii) someone secret

            Hi everyone, would appreciate any thoughts on my WC team:
            Hennessy - Myhill
            Toby A - Moreno - Baines - N Taylor - Cathcart
            Cabaye - Tadic - Bolasie - Ozil - Deulofeu
            Kane - Pelle - Lukaku

            Enough ITB to bring in Aguero if he doesn't get injured today

              • 11 Years

              Mid and Def full of punts, risky..
