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.

CLEAN SHEET ODDS – GAMEWEEK 13

TeamOdds
Chelsea2.00
Southampton2.00
Everton2.10
Crystal Palace2.10
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.

    One final time - please allow me to take a hit 😉

    Good to go? No free transfers left. Bring in place of Mc Carthy for a 4 point hit:

    A) Begovic (Chelsea and Begovic fan)

    B) De Gea (Best performance but tricky fuxtures after this GW)

    C) Hennesey (Value for money)

    D) No hit (I seriously think this GW deserves hit for keeper given Myhill looks likely to conceede for sure vs Arsenal)

    Mc Carthy (Myhill)

    Toby, Kompany, Bellerin (Moreno, Richards)

    Ozil (vc), Mane, Mahrez (c), Sanchez, Ayew

    Pelle, Vardy (Ighalo)

    Without Lukaku and any other Everton presence 🙁

    6.5 million in bank!

      Sorry but option A is laughable especially when you consider Courtois isn't to far away from his return.

      • 16 Years

      I brought in Hennesey for a hit as a way of freeing up funds for Coutinho last week. It paid off. If it's part of a plan you have for your squad then go for it.

    RMWCT:
    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

  5. GoonerByron
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    I'm seriously considering KDB, Vardy, Pelle -> Deulofeu, Aguero, Kane for -4.. Thoughts?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Could be gold. Though I wouldn't want to lose vardy.

    2. Tshelby
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Imo KDB and Vardy are season keepers but thats just me

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

        Disagree 🙂

    3. Stephen - Robot Daniels
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Vardys 11 goals in 9 games not good enough?

      Tough crowd.

      1. GoonerByron
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Just think the tactic is going to be when to jump off the ride... Think between now and January Kane will outscore him considerably.

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

      kgb has 4 home games in 6

      pelle has STO + AVL in his next 3

      vardy is tearing it up

      madness

    5. MTPockets
        10 years, 3 months ago

        If I could get Aguero in for -4 without losing Kane I would. But I wouldn't drop Vardy.

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

      Play Lanzini or Sanchez?

      1. Gooner97
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Carlos or Alexis?

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

          The exhausted Chilean.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        I'm playing both ... 😀

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

          Really wanna play Lanzini. So whom should I bench among

          Mane Mahrez KDB

          1. Gooner97
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Mane

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

              I have butland too. So it would be ideal. But still not sure.

          2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            I benched Mané.

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

              Doos. I guess we'll cry together when Mane gets a haul.

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

        I thats alexis , its a pretty easy decision

      4. *sigh*
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Sanchez

    7. Dukes of Hazard
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Why isn't there an arsenal defender in the scouts picks, wba away?

      Surely bellerin or monreal are better picks that dier.

      1. Voyeur
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Massive Arsenal bias!

        WBA away is hardly the most nailed-on of cleanies

        Dier is home to WH without Payet

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

          Disagree. It uni West Ham have more chance of scoring than WBA

        2. Dukes of Hazard
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          1) Have you seen WH away record.
          2) Arsenal have better odds than Spurs,
          3) Bellerin has better attacking stats than Dier
          3) West Ham have only failed to score once so far in the premier league.
          4) It is impossible to say how WH will react to the lose of Payet, Lanzini is a fine replacement.

      Mr Doosra, if you're around can I seek your wisdom.

      Who to bench:

      A) Mane

      B) Pelle

      C) Deulefeu

      Thanks

        C), on account of B) having truly crap opposition.

    10. Still Unsure
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Apologies, repost from a couple of days back. Early planning I know, but need some advice for next week if possible...

        Sanchez, Ozil, Mahrez, Eriksen, KDB
        Vardy, Lukaku, Ighalo

        A) Ighalo & KDB -> Aguero & Alli
        B) Vardy & KDB -> Aguero & Alli (which allows Eriksen -> Silva the following week)

        I know B won't be popular with the Vardy omission but it's a genuine option.

        1. *sigh*
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          A

      • TheEgyptianKing
        • 10 Years

        Next week Kolarov --> Ward, Pelle --> Aguero

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          I'd get Moreno over Ward.

        But im now having major doubt about whether to stick to twist to Lukaku/Vardy

        1. Dukes of Hazard
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          I have gone for Lukaku with Kane vice if that helps.

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

          Kane has the best odds to score. Go with the bookies i say. They do this for a living.

        3. Stats Don\'t Lie

        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Scoutpicks have become a bit lazy. Mane, Alexis De Bruyne seem to be automatic picks yet have shown little form in recent weeks.

        Ozil? Deulofeu?

        1. King Kav. QC at law
          • 10 Years

          Template based on their teams, I think.

          I started the season with Vardy Kane and Aguero.

          I'm just ahead of my time.

          So far ahead I continually suffer before changing to the next best option too early lol

            I started the season with Deeney.
            I think he will be top forward scorer by the end of the season 😎

            Good players suffer from this but it's the way to go.

          Why everyone captain Lukaku that against Villa's Garde that just make clean sheet vs City?

            They cant play like they did against City everweek. They will have to win games to stay up so should be a bit more open against everton. Having said that i dont think there will be lots of goals and have captained kane.

            City would've scored if they actually had a striker

            City were poor though and had no striker. KdB had an off day.

          Quick question - when looking at the 'chances conceded' stats in the members area, and seeing chances conceded from the left flank, right flank etc. Is that the left/right from the attacking or defensive team's point of view? So, for example, if the stats say that Team X concede a lot of chances on the left flank, does that bode well for their opposition's left or right wingers?

            if the team concedes a lot from right flank, that means you choose a left flank player (ie sanchez), for example if WBA concedes a lot from right flank

              I could be wrong, but thats how I believe it is interpreted, its from the perspective of the team that the analysis belongs to (if that makes sense)

                Ok, that's what I would have guessed, I was just a little unsure. Thanks!
