It’s that time of the weekend when we sneak into Paddy’s garage, lift up the sleek bonnet of his gleaming green vehicle and glory in the supercharged odds that lie beneath.

And we’ll continue that highly dubious automotive theme by taking a look at this week’s special offers for brand-new customers and in particular the 10-1 for the bus-parking United to beat Chelsea at the Bridge on Sunday.

If the boys in blue are a more arresting prospect, you can get 7-1 for Chelsea to win, and there’s 6-1 that Spurs will beat Bournemouth.

Man City haven’t won any of their last four matches, so they’ll be fired up (and you might be too) by the 5-1 on offer for them to beat Southampton.

And if a big fat accumulator feeds your fancy, then check out the 20-1 available if Arsenal, Everton, Leicester and West Ham all win.

Be sure to check the terms 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.

‘Oh look, I can’t believe that Sergio Aguero and Alexis Sanchez have the shortest odds in the anytime scorer market’ said nobody ever.

But look beyond the big names with the tiny odds and you’ll see some interesting offers.

Charlie Austin, for instance. He’s hit four goals in his last four league outings and scored twice last week. A trip to Man City is never easy, but scoring against them this season is – Pep’s pupils have kept only one clean sheet in the league – so Austin’s 2.60 price looks more than reasonable.

Swansea’s Gylfi Sigurdsson was also in the goals last week and he and new boss Bob Bradley entertain Watford. Okay, so the Hornets kept an away clean sheet last time out, but that was their first of the season. And it was against Middlesbrough.

Bradley’s comb has seen more action than Boro’s forwards in recent weeks, so Swansea will fancy their chances of a win and 3.00 on a Gylfi goal is generous.

As is 2.87 on Mesut Ozil to bang one in at home to Boro. The German has four from his last two matches, after all, while 5.00 on a Joe Allen strike is a real tempter if the Stoke midfielder can score for the fourth match on the trot away at Hull. Or Hull ’12 goals conceded in their last four matches’ City, to give them their full title.

CLEAN SHEET ODDS – GAMEWEEK 9

TeamOdds
Arsenal1.80
Liverpool1.80
Everton2.00
Manchester City2.29
West Ham2.37
Leicester2.50
Tottenham2.75
Chelsea2.75
Stoke3.00

Clean sheets have been as rare as low pay and humility in the Premier League this season, but the fixtures have fallen in such a way as to suggest we’ll see a few shut-outs this weekend.

Arsenal lead the way, at 1.80, to see off 87 minutes of Alvaro Negredo forgetting how to score and then a further three minutes (plus time added on) of Jordan Rhodes desperately trying to get back into his boss’s good books. And failing.

Leicester City are 2.50 to record their fourth home clean sheet in the league against Palace. You just have to hope Claudio Ranieri fools his team into thinking it’s a Champions League match.

And among the outliers, there are some reasonable shut-out shouts.

Manchester United will more than likely wheel out the bus that bored Anfield for another 90-minute parking exercise at Chelsea, so 3.75 is a good-looking price.

Man City’s last four results – two defeats, two draws – make them look fragile, which could leave them vulnerable to the league’s clean sheet kings, Southampton.

The Saints are at 7.50 to keep City at bay. They’ve done it to three other league teams already, and six times in all competitions this season, so it could be time for a magnificent seventh.

    Arsenal another 6-0? Wouldn't surprise me

    1. athreya
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Boro are well drilled so they will keep it down to 3 goals.

      THIS^

    Kun captain has become the risky move as per conventional wisdom. I am more than happy to take that risk. Bigger risk is Sterling's game time imo.

    1. Jammy
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Funny Sterling was essential 2 weeks ago. KDB Is the midfield choice I think. Aguero to miss a pen lol, I think he'all bang some in today to vent his frustration at being benched, if he starts....

  3. Rhodes your boat
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Sterling to Walcott worth a FT or should I save?

    1. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Do it

    2. nailedonness
      • 9 Years

    3. Forever In Our Shadow

  8. Garlana
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    So...just about to lock in my team and walk away... Sanchez or Walcott captain?

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Sanch

    2. Jambot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'm going Sanchez even though my gut feel is screaming Walcott

    3. JurgenRocks
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Sanchez.
      I have to captain Walcott, as I don't have Sanchez

    4. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Been on Sanchez all week

    5. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Giving it to Sanchez for the third week in a row!

    6. Swanmoretime
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'm going for Walcott

  9. bailllie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    What are thoughts about Stone to Holebas for a FT?

    1. SW6
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I would not do it unless you have 2FT and have a plan for the money next week

      1. bailllie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        2FT but no plans for next week!

        1. My Name Is Prince
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          2FT so you need to make one, if there's no better transfer you could make, I'd go for it (although don't forget he's on 4 yellows)

    2. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Stones out yes but better about than holebas imo. Lovren is a good pick for the next few weeks

      1. bailllie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Got Lovren already. May hold and see what transpires this week!

    3. JurgenRocks
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Keep Stones for now

    4. Swanmoretime
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Keep Stones

    5. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Stones will be dropped if Pep has any since so ya do it

  10. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Who to Play ?

    A- Amat V.S Watford (H)

    B- Koné V.S (WUH) (A)

    C- Friend v.s Arsenal ( A)

    1. Swanmoretime
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Kone but maybe that's just because I don't rate Amat !

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        And you are a Swansea Fan 😀

        1. Swanmoretime
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Exactly

  11. Swanmoretime
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Wilcarding probably a few weeks late but how does this look?

    Heaton/Pickford
    Walker/Koscielny/Blind/Luiz/Lenihan
    Ozil/ Walcott/Sterling/Lallana/Marney
    Costa/Lukaku/Austin

    Thanks

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Not keen personally but it's your team not mine so go for it

  12. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Who to Start ?

    A- Foster

    B- Jakupovic

    1. Swanmoretime
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Foster

    2. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      B. Jaku. Even though he won't play, so you'll probably end up with A.

  13. BraxterStockman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Need help please! Can't decide!

    I have 1 FT and thought I should get rid of Capoue.. I had some money from before so I have 8.8 to play with.
    I looking for a long term solution.. My mid now is, Sanchez, Walcott, Firmino, Capoue and De Roon where I bench De Roon everytime.
    So who should I choose?
    1. Siggy
    2. Allen
    3. Arnautovic
    4. Son
    5. Save and have 2 FT next round.. and play Capoue/Stones or Amat.

    Thanks in advance guys!

  14. Live Lad
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Good luck everyone! Have a high-scoring GW. May your captain score a hattie!

    1. OptimusBlack
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Who is your C ?

      1. Live Lad
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Haha. I didn't say my captain would score a hattie. Mine is Sanchez (c).

  15. Paul Psychic Octopus
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Bench?

    A. Rashford (che)
    B. Redmond (mcy)
    C. Allen (hul)

    Currently on Rashford

    1. Earn your Spurs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      redmond for me

    2. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Allen

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Benching Rashford myself

  16. FPL Marc
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Only have Amat and Stones fit in defence. Also, I've used my transfer on Costa for Ibra. Should I:

    a) play all-out-attack (a rubbish chip, no great loss)
    b) 4pt hit on Vertonghen/Smith/Pieters

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Who are your other defenders? None of the three look likely to get clean sheets this weekend, although Pieters is a good pick over the next month or so

      1. FPL Marc
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Baines, Evans, Tarkowski (just a cheap 5th choice)

        Midfielders have great fix: Sanchez (MID), Firmino (WBA), Lanzini (SUN), Snodgrass (STO), Capoue (swa)

        1. Basil1977
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          aoa chip i'd never take a -4 hit on a defender, if they keep a clean sheet you only get 2 points.

          1. Fitzy.
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            And the extra bonus points they tend to get these days.

  17. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    My 3 away wins this week are

    Man U 12/5
    Southampton 6/1
    West Brom 11/1

    Accum 285/1

  18. Misery likes Kompany
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Pickford - Grant
    Lovren - Kelly - Williams - Evans -Amat
    Sanchez - Antonio - Capoue - Snodgrass - Firmino
    Aguero - Costa - Lukaku

    2 FT, 0 in bank.
    Obvious thing to do would be to get Walcott for Antonio but I can't do that without getting rid of Costa.
    Thoughts?

  19. Defaid Daniel

    best 5.2 def or below

    1. rivercityransom

      lovren

  20. _Gunner
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Play Capoue AOA or Play Smith?

    1. MGD
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Im doing Smith

      1. _Gunner
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Let's hope he can sneak an assist or something 😀

        1. polis
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Think Bou v Spurs will be tight.

          I'd probably got AOA, Swans seems to concede fairly regularly, 1 clean sheet (GW 1 too).

          + AOA chip is meh.

          1. _Gunner
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Capoue is not doing great + I have Deeney already.

            1. polis
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              Then you answered your own question before asking it 🙂

    2. Dangerous Donkeys
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Smith has a good home record - playing him ahead of Stones; might go badly but he's gotten pts every home game, whereas Stones hasn't.

  21. Saul Gillman
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Is it worth taking a -4 to get Koscielny or Bellerin in for Collins? Seems like his place in the first team is gone!

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      For Bellerin I'd say yes.

  22. si

    Son or mane?
    Cheere

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Tough. Son looks good short term but would take Mane long term, and Liverpool's fixtures are quite tasty short term too...

      Coin flip... Mane.

  23. The Game of Throw Ins
    • 9 Years

    Grant
    Walker, Kosc, Holebas
    Sterling, Firmino, Walcott (C), Son, Allen
    Aguero, Costa,

    Austin, Smith, Amat

    G2G?

    Was hoping to save the free this week in order to use 2 next GW but struggling to see how to get Diomande>Austin in with out to much disruption to midfield. Any ideas?

    Grant /Pickford

    Smith Mustafi Holebas /Shaw-McAuley

    Wally(v.c) Coutinho Capoue Son Sanchez(C)

    Aguero Costa /Diomande
