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.

ANYTIME GOALSCORER ODDS – GAMEWEEK 9

Player Team Odds
Aguero MCI 1.61
Sanchez ARS 1.61
Mane LIV 1.90
Walcott ARS 1.90
Lukaku EVE 2.00
Slimani LEI 2.10
Firmino LIV 2.10
De Bruyne MCI 2.29
Coutinho LIV 2.29
Nolito MCI 2.29
Costa CHE 2.37
Vardy LEI 2.50
Mahrez LEI 2.50
Austin SOU 2.60
Payet WHU 2.62
Deeney WAT 2.62
Son TOT 2.87

‘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

Team Odds
Arsenal 1.80
Liverpool 1.80
Everton 2.00
Manchester City 2.29
West Ham 2.37
Leicester 2.50
Tottenham 2.75
Chelsea 2.75
Stoke 3.00

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.

    1. Ramgiri
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Snoddy

    4. kennethrhcp
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      if snoddy is your 5th mid he's wasted

    5. HazardAGuess
      10 years, 33 mins ago

      Same conundrum for me. I feel like Benteke will struggle with Leicester at home... but Hull are playing a little poor.

      Still deciding whether to take a punt on Snodgrass over him this week.

  2. Fantasyfootballer
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Final decision, play either holebas or pieters?

    1. Kryten
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Same choice I went pieters

    2. Bushman
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Easy decision. Play Pieters

    3. kennethrhcp
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      holebas

  3. kennethrhcp
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    start Boruc & Holebas over Pickford & PVA is the right call ya?

    1. Bushman
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      All 4 of them will get 2 points max so I wouldn't lose sleep...you're prob right

      1. kennethrhcp
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        🙂 haha quality reply! & prob true

  4. Ramgiri
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Grant
    Kosc clyne amat
    Firmino payet Sanchez (c) Allen
    Zlatan Luk Deeney

    Already took a - 4 hit. Do I take another - 4 and get Agüero for Zlatan? (have cash in balance)

    1. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      I would. Though If you're feeling maverick, keep Ibra.

  5. Malcolm Tucker for England …
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    crap bets from PaddyPower? what're the odds?

  6. BENOIT
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Start Amat (WAT) or Stones (SOU) ???

    1. Takedog1
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      amat

    2. MrAnderson
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      I'd go for Stones. Think City are under pressure to start defending better, and having had Tadic up to now Southampton have been wasting lots of chances and won't get as many here.

  7. lasmons
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Heaton
    Lovren - Williams - Holebas
    Sanchez - Theo(C) - Firmino - Allen
    Tekkers - Kun - Ibra

    Robinson - Amat - Carrick - Evans

    Good to go?

    1. MrAnderson
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Don't like lovren in the long run but good for this week. Currently on Sanchez myself as captain so a two hour agonise over this coming up lol. Why Did you go for Walcott?

      1. lasmons
        10 years, 57 mins ago

        Dont know. Might just change to Sanchez. Sanz playing as a striker. Walcott just seems in really good form lately. I think its a 50/50 call.

  8. Moose™
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    REPOST. Please rate this two teams out of 10.

    A) Foster

    Rate: 8/10?

    B) Foster

    Walker Coleman Holebas

    Sanchez Walcott Son Sterling

    Kun Lukaku Austin

    Sub: Jaku Amat Fletcher Kelly

    Rate: 8.5/10?

    Which team is better?

    1. v12w12
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      B

    2. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      I think you need an LFC mid.

    3. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Sorry just seen team A. D'oh!

      A is the team for me.

  9. Ruffio
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Rashford for Wilson. Or Austin?

    1. MrAnderson
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      I went Wilson, better fixtures.

  10. laoshi
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Play

    A. Antonio
    B. Amat

    TY

    1. v12w12
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      A

  11. oscardo
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    FT: Benteke -> Bony for a punt? Bony´s form is not good, but like the upcoming fixtures. He has to score soon, why not start vs Hull who are rubbish.. Mad?

    1. QPR expects... glory!
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      I don't fancy Tekkers at LEI but Bony is worse. Defoe has scored 7 times v West Ham so if you want to punt, he's a good bet.

    2. Je suis le chat
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Gutsy, though I'd wait until Bony scores first, he's streaky.

    3. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Do it. i can see bony filling his boots today

      1. oscardo
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        Done it! Come on Wilfried son 😀

        1. FPL Virgin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          10 years, 59 mins ago

          Good move.

  12. Keatz21

  14. v12w12
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Who would you bench?
    A: Valenica
    B: Amat
    C: Holebas

    1. MOZIL
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Valencia

    2. InSaneMan-e

      B and hope for attacking returns from A,C.

      1. v12w12
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        Cheers fellas, was leaning that way myself 🙂 ta

  15. MOZIL
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Prediction?

    Bournemouth vs Spurs
    Arsenal vs Middlesbrough

    1. v12w12
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      1-3
      3-0

      1. MrAnderson
        10 years, 59 mins ago

        1-1
        3-0

  16. ZeBestee
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    I feel like doing something crazy this gw.

    Antonio + Sterling >> Sanchez+Allen / Son+Payet?? for -8

    Have Firmino and Wallcott as the other two mids

    1. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Payet is the one I REALLY want and don't have. Sunderland are beyond poor.

    2. ZeBestee
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      which one of the two is viable? and idea welcome

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 58 mins ago

        Son and Payet.

  17. fijuhmon
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Foster
    Valencia, Amat, Collins, Smith, Evans
    Sanchez, Son, Mane, Antonio, Capoue
    Kun, Lukaku, Benteke

    About to take a hit and shipping out Antonio & Benteke. In come:

    a) Theo & Austin
    b) Lallana & Wilson
    c) combinations of above?

    Cheers!

    1. v12w12
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      A for me

      1. fijuhmon
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        Feels the obvious for me too, thanks

    2. InSaneMan-e
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      A from that list
      But also consider giving antonio 1 more week

      1. fijuhmon
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        I know it's an easy fixture, but him being dropped into wing back concerns me. Plus Theo's price is increasing, I can't afford another rise.

        1. InSaneMan-e
          10 years, 1 hour ago

          Understandable

        2. ZeBestee
          10 years, 1 hour ago

          i also have the same problem. I am thinking Lukaku + Payet. i do already have Theo

  18. Scotty B
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Heaton
    Clyne Amat Vertonghen
    Antonio Firmino Coutinho Snodgrass
    Ibrahimovic Lukaku Aguero

    Pickford Capoue Collins Evans

    Is my team now a bit of a differential team this week with potential to do well?

    1. InSaneMan-e
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      The only differential is an extra Liverpool mid and Zlatan
      I dont think Zlatan will do well, but sadly i think Sanchez Walcott will outscore youre 2 liverpool mids

      1. Scotty B
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        Thanks for that.
        Only time will tell hey

        1. InSaneMan-e
          10 years, 1 hour ago

          True
          I mean, if you had ft, antonio and zlatan-->Sanchez and austin/benteke seems a decent shout

  19. ANDER.
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Start smith or vert?

    1. v12w12
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Vert

      1. ANDER.
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        Who do you think will get more BPS?

        1. v12w12
          10 years, 1 hour ago

          Mmm tough....

  20. v12w12
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Any spurs fans around? Reckon Son will start? Cheers

    1. Bollemuza
      10 years, 59 mins ago

      100%

    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Wow, Charlie Austin's stats in the last 4 GW's...

    http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/17303/

    Rankings = 11111111

    The next 4 are a whole lot tougher than the last 4 but surely Charlie's worth at least a million more than he's currently priced.

    Bye, Bye Marcus.

    1. InSaneMan-e
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Indeed
      Only thing is this horrible fixture coming up

    2. The 12th Man
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      I'd be doing that transfer if his fix were better. I'm sticking with Marcus this week and saving my FT.

  22. The 12th Man
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Play McAuley (liv) or Amat ( WAT)?

    1. v12w12
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Amat

  23. Spg76
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Hull City whipping boys???? This is the game where we find out. If Stoke score 3+ goals it's over for Hull

  24. Kevtheotter
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Any reason for me to start Collins over Amat?

    1. Buck The Trent
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Pray he will play

    2. The Gambler.
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      More attacking threat?

  25. Ivz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Sanchez or Wally Captain?

    1. MrAnderson
      10 years, 56 mins ago

      Flip a coin I'd say. Sanchez for me.

  26. Jafooli
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Anyone else's team a bit of a mess atm?

    1. InSaneMan-e
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Haha, most feel that way
      The captain sensible article for this week pretty much outlines the essentials. Basically ideally you'd want Walcott, Sanchez and Kun
      The rest is ok, as those 3 could easily outscore the rest

      1. Jafooli
        10 years, 56 mins ago

        Hope so 😛

    2. fijuhmon
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Here. Whole defense is a mess and yet here I am, taking hits to get mids and strikes.

      1. Jafooli
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        Awful innit.....

      2. InSaneMan-e
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        To be fair the points are up top for the last couple of seasons
        It's become too hard to predict clean sheets

  27. Coaly
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Annoying that all three of:

    KDB rise
    Stanislas rise
    Capoue fall

    happened.

    Only had .1 spare for a move involving the first two, now would need to do a -4 involving Capoue who I was hoping would cling on

    1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      It is annoying

      I've lost .4 in value this week. Wish I'd done my wc at start of week now

  28. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Sanchez has 1 shot on target in 4 home games.

    Hands up who going with kun?

    1. InSaneMan-e
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      I am

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        We seem to be in a minority on here. Kun at home playing along side KDB STERLING and Nolito being a differential. Let's absorb it may never happen again

  29. Buck The Trent
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    1) start holebas or Amat? (Odds favour the latter)

    2) Sterling (-80% to drop) to Firmino for free ? Yay or nay ?

  30. Aubaaaaa
    10 years, 1 hour ago

    Heaton
    Monreal Rose Williams
    Sterling Firmino Walcott Antonio Allen
    Kun Vardy

    Given Smith Stuani Love

    Anyone worth a hit? Already on -4.

    1. InSaneMan-e
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Brave man to go with Vardy
      I would have picked Slimani/Mahrez if i wanted a leicester attacker
