Gameweek 17 begins today and Betway have joined in with a couple of Super Boost offers.

A Friday night clash between Nottingham Forest and Tottenham Hotspur kicks off the action, before five matches on Saturday and four on Sunday. It climaxes with the big Liverpool v Manchester United meeting, as Jurgen Klopp’s side looks to increase the growing pressure on Erik ten Hag.

WHAT IS THE GAMEWEEK 17 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 10/11:

  • Julian Alvarez (1+ Shots on Target)
  • Alexander Isak (1+ Shots on Target)
  • Cole Palmer (1+ Shots on Target)

Meanwhile, there’s 2/1 instead of 8/11 on offer for Sunday’s Super Boost:

  • Mohamed Salah (1+ Shots on Target)
  • Darwin Nunez (1+ Shots on Target)
  • Luis Diaz (1+ Shots on Target)

SATURDAY

The first boost dips into a trio of meet-ups.

Julian Alvarez is goalless in seven league games but, crucially, might be used up front for Manchester City’s hosting of Crystal Palace. Efforts on target have recently been sporadic for the World Cup winner but he had three shots during last week’s absence of Erling Haaland. If the Norwegian superstar is again ruled out, Alvarez should be deployed closer to goal.

Elsewhere, Newcastle United are hard to call right now. Three successive defeats in all competitions, poor on the road but with seven wins from eight at St James’ Park. In fact, their 33 big chances at home rank first of all teams. That’s why Alexander Isak is backed to get opportunities against Fulham, knowing that Callum Wilson started in midweek.

Prospects look even better for Cole Palmer. The young midfielder was still able to get two attempts on target during Chelsea’s 2-0 loss last Sunday and now he gets to face Sheffield United. The Blades have, by far, conceded the most shots on target (117) so far.

SUNDAY

Then, on Sunday, the boost puts a lot of faith into Liverpool’s attackers.

It’s easy to see why when noticing they’ve scored 21 times during the last five games against rivals Man United. An average of 4.2 per occasion, culminating in March’s 7-0 thrashing.

Furthermore, Mohamed Salah has an extraordinary recent record in these match-ups. He’s delivered eight goals and four assists from the latest four, which means he’s being involved in roughly three goals each time. On top of that, the Egyptian is joint-fourth for this season’s shots on target (20).

Team-mate Darwin Nunez is slightly more frustrating. He netted twice in the 7-0 but is currently without a goal in six league games. Sat seventh for shots on target (18) and second for big chances (18), the latter is actually more than Salah despite playing just 905 minutes compared to 1,377. His problem is converting these attempts, having a low conversion rate of 8.9%.

Seeing Cody Gakpo play all 90 minutes of Thursday’s Europa League encounter means it’ll likely be Salah, Darwin and Luis Diaz as the front three. As a team, Liverpool rank first for shots (280) and Diaz put four of them on target during the last home match versus Fulham.

    Kieran Trippier sold Isak for Wilson.

    Fabian Schar has benched Gordon, although he's actually played his Free Hit (why include him if not starting?)

    Wilson FWD, Gordon LW?

      Probably knows Gordon's in the team but doesn't know if he starts I reckon?
