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.

    RMT guys!

    Heaton (Pickford)
    Amat, Williams, Holebas (Francis, Collins)
    Firmino, Ozil(vc), Hazard, Antonio (Capoue)
    Lukaku Aguero(C) Bony

    1. Red Devil Swede
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      If you think Swans-Watford will end 0-0, then G2G.

      1. oscardo
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        Cant bench holebas.. And fancy spurs to score against bournemouth..

    2. Jeuxer
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Hazard out, Walcott or Sanchez in

      1. oscardo
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        patience with Eden, payed of last week. Fancy him on Jose´s return to the bridge.. 🙂

    3. VS10_
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Pickford pen save 😉

  2. Cooper123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Deeney to Austin. Good call or bad call?

    1. J âš’ Gimme ur Mané
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Rather deeney for the next two fixtures..... then Austin from then onwards

    2. Matamatics
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Deeney got the better fixtures so I say stick

    3. Vman
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      I getting both as decent fixtures coming up for both

  3. Ghost86
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Which one to play as 3rd defender with bellerin n rose

    A) smith (tot)
    B) Pieters (hull) grant playing too
    C) Amat (wat)

    1. Clump
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      B

  4. VS10_
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    No benching headaches here: Diomande, Evans, B. Smith 😎

    1. Matamatics
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Mines even worse than that Fletcher the only player that will play >.

      1. VS10_
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        Diomande is the only one who plays this week, maybe only as a sub. Evans is suspended and Smith is the one who doesn't play.

  5. Mr. Blonde
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Start smith or amat? Thinking smith for his thread although spurs going to score

    1. Mr. Blonde
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      *threat

    2. J âš’ Gimme ur Mané
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      I think both will concede, so smith for hopeful attacking returns.

    3. Jeuxer
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      smith better, Bournemouth playing home and have good defense, while WBA playing at Anfield...

      1. tets mcgee (Ha La Land)
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        amat plays for swansea

      2. The Left Duke #3
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        What has WBA got to do with Amat? Swansea have a way better chance of keeping a cleanie than Bournemouth.

    4. Jeuxer
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      and smith can scores

      1. Jeuxer
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        *score

  6. Forjaz
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    It is certain that Collins won't start, right?

    1. InSaneMan-e
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Afraid so. Managers dont like to change a winning formula (unless you're LVG)

      1. Forjaz
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        Guess i'll stat Pieters...

  7. InSaneMan-e
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    I must say, If Costa gets a yellow today tomorrow (which I'm sure Conte will tell him to do) then he'll probably be the most essential asset in the game

    1. InSaneMan-e
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      *tomorrow

  8. GalacticosFC
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Capoue or snodgrass , I already have deeney or shall I punt on transferring Allen

    1. Epic Fail
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      If you have 2 frees and nothing else to do.

      1. J âš’ Gimme ur Mané
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        This

  9. seanpauldcu
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Foster | Heaton
    Valencia | Clyne | Walker | Evans | Amat
    Walcott | Sterling | Firmino | Capoue | Antonio
    Aguero | Deeney | Lukaku

    Dilemma - 2FT + £0.3m ITB burning a hole in my pocket. Considering Sterling > Arnautovic as he may be rested this week and RMT indicates that is only player or Coutinho that will improve this week return and over next 6 week return.
    A) Sterling > Arnautovic this week
    B) Antonio > Arnautovic next week
    C) Both > Ozil/Coutinho + An Other next week

    Any help appreciated.

    1. Elijah's Wood
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      I would downgrade Foster to free up cash and assess after this weekend, you've kept Antonio this long for a reason, this will be his send off for many managers

    2. Vman
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Looks good the only one I would consider transferring is Antonio but no rush for that yet.

  10. Messsiaah
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    play williams or holebas ?

    1. J âš’ Gimme ur Mané
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Williams. Can't see a holebas clean sheet, so you would be hoping for attackkng returns from holebas.

      I'd play both though, but that's obviously not an option for you...

      1. Messsiaah
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        there is an option. play them both and bench joe allen. can you help me out?

        1. J âš’ Gimme ur Mané
          10 years, 1 hour ago

          If it means dropping joe Allen vs hull then I wouldn't play both Williams and holebas.

          Holebas is more likely to be explosive, but I think a Williams clean sheet is more likely than holebas attacking returns. I'd go Williams mate.

  11. FPL Maldini
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    So Kun will start tomorrow right?

    1. Epic Fail
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Probably

    2. Matamatics
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Hopefully

    3. ANON.
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Very likely that he will

  12. Pompel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Got that sneaking fealing that with the herd mentality herer, San(c)hez going to fail, and Aguero to get a brace. But still I think I will stand firm with Alexis

    1. Epic Fail
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Just choose who you think will score the highest. Doesn't matter what the 'herd' think.

  13. Elijah's Wood
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Who to play out of Snodgrass (STO) and Benteke (lei)?

    Currently playing Snoddy

    1. tets mcgee (Ha La Land)
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      stick. dont think palace will score

  14. Teror
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Sterling > Siggy (concerned about the price drop)

    ?

    1. Epic Fail
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      No

  15. GK

    All good to go? 0FT, 0.4m ITB -

    Pickford
    Holebas, Pieters, Valencia

  16. Gruu
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Please help me. Which one do you choose?

    A. Tadic + Antonio (no hit)
    B. Coutinho + Antonio (-4)
    C. Payet + Allen (-8)

    I've already Sanchez-Wally.

    1. tets mcgee (Ha La Land)
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      a

      1. Gruu
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        I dont have any Liv mid. Do I need to take hit for tadic to coutinho/firmino?

    2. ANON.
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      A

  17. samgirtonian
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    Guys, in your opinion is it worth taking a 4 point hit to transfer out Sterling for Walcott before the deadline?

    Sterling looks to be falling in price within the next 2 GW and costs 0.5 more than Wally?

    Thanks!

    1. Epic Fail
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Potentially.

      1. samgirtonian
        10 years, 2 hours ago

        My thoughts exactly. Walcott vs Middlesbrough this week ( Only 1 clean sheet all season). Should say already have Sanchez (C).

        1. Epic Fail
          10 years, 2 hours ago

          Aye that's it. But we know Walcott could easily get 2 points or 15.

    2. SheBangsTheDrums
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      I've made this transfer and taken the hit! Can't ignore Wally's form atm!

    3. Feed tha Sheep
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Think I'm going to do it for free don't know about a hit..do you think sterling will be rested?

  18. ANON.
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    1ft, 0.5 in the bank. Good to go?

    Heaton
    Valencia, Williams, Holebas
    Mane, Sterling, Walcott(c), Snodgrass
    Aguero, Ibra, Lukaku

    Pickford, Amat, Fletcher, *Evans*

  19. goran

    Pls help!
    1. Costa and Hazard out,
    2. Lukaku and De Bruyne in?

    1. Mata-Is-The-Juan
      10 years, 2 hours ago

      Why Costa? Top scoring player in the game. All this just to get KDB in ? Hazard > another MID sure but keep Costa.

      That said, this could be the game he gets his 5th YC and Jose could very well be the manager that shuts him out so you could be on to something.

      1. goran
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        thanks

    2. Teror

      Drop Haz, keep Costa.

    2. Thomas Magnum
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Allen

  26. Epic Fail
    10 years, 2 hours ago

    There's a chance Costa will try to get a yellow, but the ref doesn't give it, so he tries harder and gets a straight red and 3 match ban.

    1. VS10_
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      He can just go and take a throw in and wait until the yellow is given.

      1. Epic Fail
        10 years, 1 hour ago

        I'm not sure Costa is that intelligent.

    2. Clump
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      I knew there was a reason I took a hit to get him in this week 🙂

    3. ANON.
      10 years, 1 hour ago

      Hopefully the ref is well on top of the situation. Should be red or nothing really. Giving him a yellow is what he wants so it can't be the right decision. It's not a punishment if he wants it
