Gameweek 5 is about to begin and Betway have joined in with a couple of Super Boost offers.

No Friday night match this time, with Wolverhampton Wanderers hosting Liverpool in a Saturday lunchtime opener. Then, on Monday night, Nottingham Forest welcome Burnley to City Ground.

However, sandwiched in between are a bunch of intriguing match-ups.

WHAT IS THE GAMEWEEK 5 SUPER BOOST?

If you’re new to the Super Boost, it’s effectively enhanced odds on cherry-picked match events.

A trio of match events, to be exact, so you’ll need all three to come in.

On Saturday, Betway are offering 2/1 odds for this treble rather than the original evens:

  • Erling Haaland (1+ Shots on Target)
  • Son Heung-min (1+ Shots on Target)
  • Marcus Rashford (1+ Shots on Target)

Meanwhile, there’s 3/1 instead of 11/8 on offer for Sunday’s Super Boost:

  • Bukayo Saka (1+ Shots on Target)
  • Martin Odegaard (2+ Shots)
  • William Saliba (2+ Tackles)

SATURDAY

The three selected Saturday names all face an opponent yet to keep a clean sheet and the first two, in particular, feel pretty straightforward.

Erling Haaland is the league’s top scorer with six goal and has ended all four matches with at least two shots on target. It’s a trip to West Ham United, where he netted twice on last season’s opening weekend – his Premier League debut.

Over at Spurs, Son Heung-min should only be judged on Gameweek 4 – the first time he’s been used up front under Ange Postecoglou. Until then he’d had an anonymous start but the hat-trick at Burnley came from five shots.

Needing an in-form centre-forward to muster one shot on target at home to newly-promoted Sheffield United seems clear-cut. Especially when the visitors have conceded the second-most of these (27).

To complete the set, Marcus Rashford is back on the left side and has exactly one on target from each appearance. All he has to do is repeat the trick against leaky Brighton and Hove Albion.

SUNDAY

Everton are a bogey team for Arsenal, beating the Gunners in five of the last seven Goodison Park meetings.

But sometimes it’s better to look at what’s in front of you, rather than behind. Bukayo Saka has five shots on target from four matches, sitting third overall for penalty area touches (39).

Midfield team-mate Martin Odegaard is averaging 3.5 attempts per game and only needs two here.

Then there’s William Saliba at the back. If Everton push forward, buoyed by their recent history versus Arsenal, Saliba will be needed to intervene with some important tackles.

  2. thom830g

    1 FT, 0,1 ITB.

    G2g?

    Turner (Onana)
    Udogie - chilwell - Gusto (Gabriel - Estupinan)
    Diaz - Saka - Bruno - Rashford - Mbuemo
    Haaland - watkins (mubama)

  3. Bonus magnet
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Start

    A. Onana
    B. Allison

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Allison without a doubt

  4. The Tinkerman
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    G2G? 1FT, haven’t made any changes.

    Tempted by Sterling > Foden, but think I’ll hold for 2FT instead

    Turner
    Chilwell, Gvardiol, Estu
    Saka, Sterling, Bruno, Maddison, Mbuemo
    Haaland, Jackson

    Onana; Pedro, Botman, Baldock

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I would hold, not an essential transfer by any means and always more useful having 2FT.

  5. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Bottomed

    Do Pedro -> Alvarez now? Any leaks yet?

    1. BrockLanders
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Talk Alvarez may be benched

      1. The Philosopher

      Yea nice move.

  8. Detweiler
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Start 2x of Colwill, Gvardiol and Estupinan?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      C and E

  9. thomashl
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Start or sell Estupinan?

    My bench has Botman* and Kabore* who might not play.
    (Estu –> Udogie is an option.)

    Think Brighton might do a number on United tbf

    1. JPSpurs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I wouldn’t dump Estu - should do ok v Bournemouth next match

      1. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Initially me neither. Just thinking about de Zerbi’s comments saying Estu «had a long flight back», i.e. ‘Might he be benched?’.

        If he’s benched I might have no playing defenders as backup

        1. Art Vandelay
          • 15 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          What your comment tells me is that you would be better off bringing in a playing back up defender - plenty of great options.

          1. thomashl
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah, fair point - the question is if it is worth it using my second FT this week for that, or take the risk and go in to next gw with 2FTs. Team:

            Onana
            Dias Chilwell Estu
            Mitoma Bruno Rashy Maddy Saka
            Haaland Wissa
            (Turner - Archer Botman Kaboré) 1ft 1.5itb

            Are you working as an import/exporter, by any chance?

  10. JPSpurs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Johnstone to Leno for -4 would be crazy talk?

    Turner (Johnstone)
    Chilwell, Dias, Udogie (Estu, Kabore)
    Son, Maddison, Saka, Sterling, Mitoma
    Haaland (c), Watkins (Wissa)

    1. Detweiler
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Not worth a hit. Play Turner and hope he starts

  11. SKENG
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Turner
    Chilwell Estupinan Walker
    Sterling Rashford Bruno Saka Mbeumo
    Haaland Watkins

    Steele Kabore Baldock Scarlett - 1 FT, 1.5M ITB

    A) Walker > Trippier
    B) Steele > Kaminski
    C) Save FT
    D) WC??
    E) smth else

    Any thoughts on this team? Leaning towards A atm.

  12. Lilac Breasted Roller
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    A) Diaby, Morris (bench), Henry (to rotate with other defs)
    B) Sarr (bench), Awoniyi, Chilwell (always play)

  13. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Who would you get on WC that you don’t already have?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Rashford or Maddison

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Diaz or Son.

      or Awoniyi.

      and sort out the backline.

  14. Punty McPuntface
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Was going to ask what is the best move but I've just had a great idea after reading this article.

    Rather than bringing Son in, I'm going to leave him out and bet on him to score instead! Not bet for a long time but this feels like a can't lose situation!

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      You either get him in and cry or smile... All apbout risk.

    2. fish&chips
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Son 5x assist incoming

      1. Punty McPuntface
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I can bet on that too! Good shout!

    3. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yep, I am going to hedge the risk of all the players I don't own scoring. Thanks FFS for bringing this opportunity to my attention. I can't see how I can lose.

  15. TanN
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Awoniyi or Alvarez on a WC?

    Leno
    Chilwell Udogie Cash
    Salah Maddison Foden Mbuemo Diaby
    Haaland xxx

    Areola Estupinan Burn Archer

    1. LoneWolf1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Awonyi

    2. PogChamp
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Awoniyi

    Just so you know, that doesn't make shoving a gambling ad in the faces of people who have no desire to see it an okay thing to do.

        Yeah, just looked after kicking my gambling addiction a while ago! It's all about Son today!

        They used you actually.

  17. Strike me a Gakpose

    Bottomed
    Is this bench correct?

    Turner (Areola)
    Udogie Chilwell Estu (gvardiol henry)
    Saka Madds Sterling Bruno (Mbuemo)
    Haaland Alvarez Watkins

    Benching Mbuemo could backfire but would rather play Watkins over him

    1. JPSpurs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Watkins has been trolling me all season and am playing him today so my advice would be to bench…

      1. Strike me a Gakpose
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Lol I just feel like he has to score at some point

  18. John Colby (C)

    Gw 5 Differential:

    I’m surprised there doesn’t seem to be any buzz around this player who has 3 great fixtures in the next 4 and plays a side today who is among the leading candidates for relegation.
    Step forward Raul Jimenez.

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yes he crossed my mind.

    2. LoneWolf1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Well since that awful head injury he hasn’t been the same player.

  19. FPL Pillars
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Set and forget GK, choose 1

    A) Leno
    B) Areola

    1. LoneWolf1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      A

  20. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I expect at least 9 attacking returns from my players this gw
    Son - 2
    Maddison - 1 or 2
    Haaland - 1 or 2
    Sterling - 1
    Jackson - 1
    Trippier - 1
    Udogie - 1
    Chilwell - 1
    Cash - 0 or 1
    Mbeumo - 0 or 1

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      some of them might manage to get 3 or 4.points?

    2. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      imagine if the FPL Gods take d 1's and 2's as points and offer u just that

  21. Kane Train
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Any Manchester City leaks? Do we think Alvarez will start?

    1. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years

      What I want to know as well

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      not yet and yes.

    Is rash to son nonsense?
    (Have bruno and maddy)

    1. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Certainly not nonsense - probably a 50/50 call over the next 5 GWs

      1. HadiSLIM
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks. If no other fires i plan to do the switch back next week

        Alrernatively, i could do watkins-foden to son morris this week for a hit, and keep both

        1. Art Vandelay
          • 15 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          I don't particularly like that as a use of an FT but if you want to mange your team really actively like that then bringing in Son is a terrific option.

          1. HadiSLIM
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Yeh im wc gw 9 anyway. So will dead end my team till then i dont mind

    2. LoneWolf1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Hell no, get it done

  23. Exelcius
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Who do I transfer out for Son?

    A) Foden
    B) Bruno
    C) Saka

    1. Ady87
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Foden due to xMins

    2. LoneWolf1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      B

  24. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Got Sterling but I’m not convinced. Which do I pick?

    A) Sterling
    B) Mbuemo
    C) Szoboszlai
    D) Diaby
    E) Mitoma

    Want someone in this price range so I can upgrade Archer/Alvarez to Jesus/Darwin + others if needed.

    1. Lilac Breasted Roller
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I'm leaning towards B and D

  25. Strchld
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Mitoma to Foden? Bruno to Son? Or save FT.

    1. LoneWolf1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Bruno to son

  26. Art Vandelay
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Leno
    Udogie Chillwell Cash
    Mbeumo Maddison FOden Sterling Saka
    Jackson Haaland

    Tripps Semenyo Henry

    With 1FT

    a) Foden > Son
    b) Sterling > Son
    c) Hold

    I will probably Captain Son if I bring him in.

    Cheers

    1. Lilac Breasted Roller
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      decent options, think you're fine holding and haaland (C). Son (C) is more differential, you already have some cover with mads

      1. Art Vandelay
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Cheers.

        I have had an absolute shocker of a start and looking for opportunities to re-engage with the pack (I appreciate Son(c) could easily have the opposite effect.

    2. LoneWolf1989
      • 4 Years

      A

      1. Art Vandelay
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Cheers mate.

        Can I ask why you prefer ditching Foden? Is it the fear of rotation as we move towards CL?

        1. LoneWolf1989
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          As a Foden owner I am terrified of that today with CL games incoming, I own Sterling and he has a good record against Bournemouth

          1. Art Vandelay
            • 15 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Cheers.

            Team predictions on BLuemoon (City Forum) pretty much all have Foden starting and whilst that is not any sort of guarantee I do subscribe to the wisdom of the crowd theory.

  27. Lilac Breasted Roller

    Last thing i'm tweaking for the last mid/fwd spots (one on bench)

    A) Archer/Diaby

    As an owner of 3 city assets I’m very concerned with CL games next week that Pep roulette will be in full force today.
