Twin Gunners lead the way, with Theo Walcott and Olivier Giroud heading up Paddy’s list of likely goalscorers ahead of their Emirates meeting with Sunderland.

Arsenal are in the midst of a three-match winless streak but will fancy their chances of punishing a Black Cats rearguard that ranks joint-top for goals conceded on the road (18). However, with Sam Allardyce all set to “park the bus” off the back of three clean sheets in the last five, and with the Gunners ravaged by injuries, this may yet be a struggle for Arsene Wenger’s men.

Southampton’s Graziano Pelle ranks next as the towering Italian returns to league action following suspension, just in time to face a fragile Aston Villa defence. Pelle has netted just once in five matches but is up against a Villa side who are without Ciaran Clark and could also be missing skipper Micah Richards. Remi Garde’s side have shipped 17 goals in seven away trips and look unlikely to keep Pelle and Sadio Mane (2.29) at bay.

Paddy place a quartet of strikers at 2.00 for an anytime goal.

Everton’s Romelu Lukaku will be looking to prolong a run of five goals in four league outings when Crystal Palace turn up at Goodison Park on Monday night. Meanwhile, Diego Costa will be hoping for a Chelsea recall for the visit of a Bournemouth side that’s conceded 30 goals this season – a total matched only by the obliging Newcastle rearguard. That’s reason enough for Paddy to also place Eden Hazard at 2.10, the top ranked midfield asset behind Walcott.

The Magpies back four will come under scrutiny when Liverpool roll up to St James’ Park off the back of a 6-1 midweek demolition of Southampton in the Capital One Cup, with Paddy backing Daniel Sturbridge to repeat his St Mary’s salvo. Finally, Harry Kane is also priced at 2.00: he’s up against a West Brom home defence that’s leaked three goals on four occasions in front of their own fans this season.

Jamie Vardy is priced out at 2.20 to maintain his record-breaking goalscoring form when he travels to South Wales to face Swansea, with Man City’s Wilfried Bony following on with odds of 2.25 for a goal: the Ivorian is set to spearhead the City attack at Stoke in Sergio Aguero’s absence.

Man United’s Memphis Depay and Anthony Martial enjoy short odds (2.29) for West Ham visit. Although the Red Devils have accrued just five goals since Gameweek 10, their attacking recruits will draw encouragement from the fact that the Hammers are without a shut-out in nine league outings.

Arsenal1.80
Manchester United1.83
Southampton2.00
Chelsea2.00
Tottenham2.29

Manchester City2.40
Watford2.70
Everton3.00

Arsenal (1.80) are the favourites to register a clean sheet as they lock horns with a Black Cats side that notched just three goals in their last five road ties. Lending credence to Paddy’s valuation, the North Londoners surrendered the joint-least shots inside the box (19) over the last four Gameweeks.

Man United (1.83), Southampton and Chelsea (both 2.00) are ranked next ahead of their respective home match-ups. The Red Devils’ defence has been breached just once on home soil this campaign, while Saints are up against a Villa outfit that’s created just five “big chances” away from home all season – the lowest in the league.

Meanwhile, Chelsea (2.00) go in search of their third consecutive shut-out when Bournemouth roll up to Stamford Bridge. The Blues allowed the joint-fewest big chances (one) in the last four Gameweeks but are squaring up to a Cherries attack that ranked top for attempts (71) and key passes (55) during the same period.

There’s nothing to separate Tottenham and Liverpool (both 2.29) from a defensive standpoint this Gameweek. Spurs have seen their net ripple on just four occasions in the last six Gameweeks, while the Reds face off against a Newcastle unit that has drawn three blanks in the previous five Gameweeks.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    I have to admit that I have no idea who to captain.

    Might aswell keep the armband on Mane only because Villa is poor and missing some key players at back and hopefully they bounce back after that heavy defeat.

    1. BabyB
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      i think mane is differential enough to just own. I'd go for a kane or lukaku myself.

      1. DannyBoy....
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Meh. Palace and WBA could easily only concede 1 goal where as Villa are likely to concede several

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          My thoughts excatly. Despite Wba being poor at home they are capable of keeping cs

    2. DannyBoy....
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Sound logic. It's him or Bellerin for me.

    Anyone worried that lukaku's scoring run might end?

    1. rawr
      • 15 Years

      Has not scored a league goal yet or played 90 minutes, not even looking until he ticks both of those.

      1. Taffer
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        He has scored 2 league goals - are you really a Liverpool fan?

    Feeling so nervous. It's ridiculous as it's only a game I know.

    I'm playing Walcott and benching Barkley. Squeaky bum time

    2. El Patron

      1. Whats the Huth

        Even from a cameo. He's likely to score big

    What are you doing with Aguero, out for Kane for a hit, YES or NO?

    1. stewlynz

      Despite getting Agueto back recently, I've just done that very move. I've had it with Aguero.

    please help 🙂

    Butland (Hennessey)
    Toby, Moreno, Kos * (Simpson, Dann)
    Mahrez, KDB, Bolasie, Ozil (Surman)
    Kane, Lukaku, Aguero *

    1FT, 0.6m ITB

    Aguero out means that I'll have to play one of Simpson or Dann - am thinking maybe Simpson as I don't see Palace keeping a clean sheet?
    Koscielny injury a concern, I was thinking of transferring to Bellerin or Zouma to ensure I had a starter (and thus avoiding playing both Dann and Simpson).

    Also need a captain. The armband has been on Ozil but now having second thoughts and considering Lukaku.

    My fellow undecided folks torn btn Kane, Lukaku, and maybe Ozil. I am going Kane.
    KANE: WBA shipping 3 in 4 of the 7 times @ home plus the form Kane has convices me.
    LUKAKU: He is on form but Chrystal palace does not concede a lot. Just check the history
    Ozil: Assist only + Big Sam might have something in store for Wenger (A big bus)
    Kane, yes it is you and vice captain can even go to Butland.
