It’s time again to wander down Paddy Avenue and knock on the doors marked ‘Anytime Goalscorer’ and ‘Clean Sheets’ in search of the odds that call these places home.

But before all that, let’s take a look at the enhanced offers available for new customers.

There’s a cracker of an Acca available if sweating on the result of just the one match is not enough entertainment for you. So if you fancy Chelsea, Man City and West Ham all to win, Paddy have a 12-1 price with your name on it.

They’re all at home, Chelsea have won four straight, City must fancy their chances against Middlesbrough after their Barca boost and as for the Hammers…two wins from their last three in the league has steadied the ship.

You can get 5-1 on Chelsea to beat Everton. The Blues are suddenly looking like title contenders now they’ve switched to three at the back, while the Toffees’ away record isn’t that sweet – they’ve not won on the road since early September, and that was at Sunderland.

It’s the North London derby on Sunday, with Arsenal to beat Spurs available at 7-1.The Gunners are in prime form, their goalless draw against Boro a blip seven wins. As for Spurs, they were wretched in the Champions League, key players are injured, they’re winless in three and haven’t scored a goal from open play in five matches.

But if you want to ignore all of that, Spurs to beat Arsenal is available at 14-1. That’s almost insane odds for a two-horse race, even if one of the horses is more Shetland than Shergar.

Finally, you can get 4-1 on Liverpool beating Watford. The Hornets have been taking the sting out of attacks in recent weeks, with three straight clean sheets to their name. But that was against three of the bottom six.

No-one’s scored more goals than Liverpool’s 24 this season, and unless Watford can park the bus as precisely as Mourinho’s Man United managed, a home win looks highly likely.

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.

Sergio Aguero at 1.40, Diego Costa (1.57), Charlie Austin (1.83) and pretty much the entire Liverpool midfield are your Anytime Goalscorer short-odds boys this week.

The runaway leader in our captain poll, Aguero is heavily backed by Paddy – triumphantly returning to the to top ranked spot after a three-game blip.

Austin’s odds are intriguing and back the transfer traffic witnessed heading into today’s deadline – more than 117,000 FPL managers have swooped for the Saints striker ahead of his anticipated duck shoot at Hull City.

Interestingly, Paddy are still favouring Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino (both 1.90) over the current Fantasy darling, Philippe Coutinho (2.40). While, further down, we like the faith being shown in Alexis Sanchez at 2.20 against the Spurs defence.

The Chilean bagged a brace last time out (with the usual ‘it was against Sunderland’ rider) and looks beautifully placed to punish a Spurs side on the wrong side of “meh” at the moment.

But there is another rider to add to the Gunners’ stable – Olivier Giroud could well earn further pitch time following his Stadium of Light cameo and midweek strike: the Frenchman is also 2.20.

Now that Wilfried Bony has finally remembered that he’s employed to score goals, he’s priced at 2.29 to keep up the good work for Stoke at West Ham. Even during the dark days of their early season slump, the Potters still managed to score in every away match. They’re a different animal these days, and so is Bony.

Everton’s Romelu Lukaku isn’t an animal, he’s a beast. Seven matches, seven goals. Beast. A 3.20 beast. Chelsea haven’t conceded a goal in four matches, mind, so if anyone’s going to tame him…

Finally, Ilkay Gundogan has four goals in his last two, including a brace against Barcelona, with more than 430,000 FPL managers investing in the German this week and hoping for instant dividends.

Middlebrough’s defence is actually in better nick than the Catalan giants, but a cheeky 3.50 on the City man to keep up his blistering run is still a serious tempter, particularly for those who resisted the “Gundoganwagon”.

CLEAN SHEET ODDS – GAMEWEEK 11

TeamOdds
Man City1.83
Liverpool1.90
Southampton2.10
Leicester2.10
Chelsea2.29
Bournemouth2.37
Manchester United2.50
Crystal Palace2.70
Arsenal2.80


The shortest odds are slapped on Man City and Liverpool, promoting the stock of John Stones and Dejan Lovren.

Having said that, those two sides have just three league shut-outs between them this season, so the 2.10 on Leicester to keep the West Brom ‘attack’ at bay could the more profitable place to start. Step forward Christian Fuchs.

The Foxes have kept three clean sheets in five home matches so far, while the Baggies have managed a goal on every away trip, but against considerably looser defences than Leicester’s.

The hand injury to Kasper Schmeichel muddies the water a touch, but Claudio Ranieri’s men still look a strong bet to blank the Baggies, with Fuchs in profit.

Stoke are 4.50 to blunt the Hammers. Mark Hughes’s defence have kept two clean sheets in their last three matches and a 4-1 dismantling at Crystal Palace aside, have kept things tight on the road all season.

West Ham did win their last match at home, but (yet again) it was against Sunderland so only just counts. It was also their first victory at the Olympic Stadium since the second outing of the season, so home is still not exactly where the heart is. An in-form Stoke could capitalise.

Finally, despite landing in Manchester with back-to-back shutouts, Middlesbrough are a huge 13.0 to keep Man City locked down, with Paddy clearly fancying a handsome home win-to-nil.

  2. drughi
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    pieters or holebas is hard ? pieters a bigger chance of cs even though both team probably will concede. Holebas more attacking and on some set pieces.

    1. faver
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      As someone mentioned and I agree with that, Holebas may even get red. Yc, and 4 goals condeded - nicht gut.

  3. mrad0
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Unlimited free transfers since I used my wildcard for this gameweek.

    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Fuchs or Alonso?!

    Both have good fixtures over Christmas, Fuchs maybe better in the short term. Alonso a good long term pick?

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Alonso. Stronger defence and just as must attacking threat of not more.

      1. Smurf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Much *

        If *

    2. Jumping Jurgen
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Alonso long term for sure

    3. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights

    Just logged on to FPL to check teams and it's not been updated yet.

    I'm not a fan of this late deadline at 2pm.

    It should be 12.45pm regardless of no early game.

  13. Inside Left
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Were prices changes, and particularly drops, as brutal last year as this year? Seems crazy this year.

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Much slower last year

    2. Inside Left
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Definitely. Had massive impact on my team this week - Wally's been a nightmare... he better play and score tomorrow.

  14. Earn your Spurs

    Finger over the hit button ...

    Walcott -> Hazard for a hit?

    a> Do it
    b> No way

    thanks 🙂

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

      B. I'm personally hopping on the Hazard bandwagon for their easy run in a few GW's time

    2. Jumping Jurgen
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Wait till next week.

    3. Stockport Hatter

      Do it. I did.

  15. BenjoDT

    Worth taking a hit to transfer out Benteke? If so who'd you get out of Costa and Lukaku? Cheers

    1. Mini Mane Mo
      • 10 Years

      Not seen in training pics apparently...hopefully any Bou fans on the ground can verify if he's with the team today.

    Cech
    Lovren, Evans
    Stanislas, Gundogan, Firm, Coutinho, Allen
    Aguero, Lukaku, Costa

    Jaku, Walker, Williams, Love

    Play this team with AOA? Or move Stanislas to the bench and play Walker?

  23. hannesdela
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Am I mad for captaining Sanchez over Agüero?

    I can see Sanchez ripping Spurs up like he did against Chelsea. Middlesborough has had 2 CS in a row now with one at the Emirates, I can see them making liffe difficult for Kun and City too.

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

      Walcott gonna rip Spurs up

    2. Dino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Yep mad

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      No but you'll be mad this evening when we have 26 points and you ve only 13

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

        I usually captain Kun and I know he's phenomenal, but my gut feeling just tells me to go with Sanchez this GW so I hope it turns out the other way. That would give me a real differential.

  24. LeicesterA
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Argh, not happy to hear about potential Wilson injury. Didn't want to take a hit this week, least of all for a striker who has Sunderland 🙁

  25. Ghost86
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Joe Allen 26?

    1. devils advocate
      • 11 Years

      Doesn't look a day over 43 imo.

  26. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Saw a post earlier that asked which player you fear most and not one person said Walcott. There must be thousands of sellers secretly bricking it 😉

    1. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Not this week or next. Maybe from GW13.

      If he does well that's a nice easy transfer next week at least at a decent price.

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Wally and Arsenal are fixture proof 😉

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years

        Actually if he does play against United I would be a bit worried he'll tear our slow defence apart

        1. Sjaugen
          • 10 Years

          3-0 after 20 mins vs ManU last season 🙂

      1. Daghe Munegu

        Yes

        1. Areid13
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Maybe son > Gundogan for cash bc I don't see bony getting too many points

          1. Daghe Munegu
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Thanks. Im keeping Bony and not sure about doubling with Allen so I'll probably do Son > Gundogan but concerned about my defence for next gw

  28. Buck The Trent

    Chose the wrong Arsenal defender and he will drop in price

  29. Areid13
