The wise counsel of Paddy Power is back to guide us to learned teamsheet decisions with a hearty slice of anytime scorer and clean sheet odds thrown in.

And there’s more than a few tempting deals for new customers on offer this week from Paddy, although not quite as tasty as the one Paul Hollywood’s squeezed out of Channel 4.

Leicester might only have one away win to their name this season – the movie reference that is in Bruges – but the 16-1 on offer for them to beat United could make you a killing. You can also get 5-1 on the United win.

There’s also 16-1 available for a treble on Spurs, Everton and Liverpool all to win – generous indeed for a trio in such prime form.

If you’re intent on watching this evening’s kick-off, wincing with every Diego Costa challenge, you can spice things up further with odds of 8/1 on an Arsenal win or 10/1 on a triumph for Antonio Conte’s men.

Five league matches, five wins – no-one’s in better form than Man City, so 5-1 on them beating Swansea looks more than doable, while Southampton at West Ham could go either way, but 8-1 for the Saints to march away with a victory is well worth a look.

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.

And so on to the meat in your Paddy pie.

RashfordMUN2.80
BonySTK2.80

He’s back and his odds are as short as his legs. Yep, Sergio Aguero (1.53) returns from his three-match ban primed and ready to add to his three league goals for the season and maybe cost Swansea boss Francesco Guidolin his job while he’s about it.

If you fancy your legs longer (and ego bigger), Zlatan (1.90) will be looking to punish a Leicester defence that’s coughed up five goals in two away matches so far. Marcus Rashford (2.80) is a longer shot but he’s on it – a goal in his first league start last time out and another in the EFL Cup in midweek.

Romelu Lukaku (2.25) also has form on his side, and Bournemouth in his sights. The big Belgian has four goals in two matches which, coincidentally, is the same amount (from the same matches) that the Cherries have shipped at home.

And never discount Diego Costa (2.50) against Arsenal. He might be about as welcome at the Emirates as a Fancy Bear at an NHS data protection meeting, but he’s got five in five in the league and after getting most of the Gunners sent off last season, fate almost demands that he’ll do more damage this afternoon.

CLEAN SHEET ODDS – GAMEWEEK 6

TeamOdds
Liverpool1.72
Manchester City2.10
Manchester United2.29
Tottenham2.50
Stoke2.70
Everton2.70
Watford2.87
Crystal Palace3.10
Burnley3.10
Sunderland3.20

Clean sheets have been a bit of a rarity this season and the odds reflect it.

Man City (2.10) have managed just the one so far, in last week’s mauling of Bournemouth, but Swansea are averaging less than a goal a game and have already drawn two blanks, one of which was at home.

United have two shut-outs to their name but have conceded five in their last two matches, so 2.29 looks a bit meagre for visit of Leicester. The Foxes might have failed to win on the road in the league, but they’ve not failed to score in either defeat.

Everton (2.70) have won three in a row, and two of them involved clean sheets, so they look a more attractive proposition, particularly against a Bournemouth outfit with just three goals to their name.

And Burnley have kept things tight at home – one clean sheet and just two goals conceded in three matches – so their 3.10 price is tempting. If they can stop the ten-goal Watford juggernaut, that is.

    Kdb just for this week then transfer for sanchez? Can't see arsenal doing well against chelsea given their record

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

      It wont be 0:0 draw, luiz can do wonders for Alexis. I pulled the trigger this weekend

    Thoughts on my wildcard team:

    Pickford Jaku
    Baines Clyne Holebas Smith Amat
    KDB Sterling Firmino Antonio Capoue
    Aguero Lukaku Deeney

    £0.5m ITB for KDB to Sanchez.

    1. Pellegrini Falcon
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Presume you'll continue benching Capoue then? Not that there's anything wrong with that

    2. Footballfriend
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Very Nice team, wish I'd my wildcard still to do something like it! Nothing I'd change besides maybe WBA defensive coverage but even then that's so minor

  3. Camp No No
    • 12 Years

    So who are the nailed-on Watford defenders?

    1. Defcons are for Kinnear

        Can't see why klavan would play....Liverpool conceded 6 in the two league games he played in

    3. LewanGOALski
      • 14 Years

  7. Footballfriend

    I so badly want rid of Haz and go get Sanchez but I already used my FT for Kun and I can't straight swap, I need to make up about 1.1 (Barkley -> Bolasie in mind) but it would require a -8 hit this week, go Barkley -> Bos for a -4 and Haz to Sanchez next week?

    1. Defcons are for Kinnear
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Do it

    2. Brap.
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Stick with Haz

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

        In the long term? Barkley to bolasie to free up funds for a -4 you reckon?

  8. Arteta

    Is anyone on wc going with both Mane and Firmino?

    1. @persecuted_by_mods

      • Defcons are for Kinnear

      • faver
        • 10 Years

        Few done that here I believe. Not a fan personally but double up attack should be only reds and City

      • SamH123
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Couthino and Firmino for me

    2. @persecuted_by_mods

        I tend not come come on here on Saturday mornings. Had no idea it was this bad, don't be the guy who's just spamming questions yet not replying to responses or helping anyone else

          Any good arguments for Coleman over Baines (except the 0.2 in price)

          1. Defcons are for Kinnear
            • 12 Years

            More outfield threat

              • 10 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              My thoughts exactly, now just who to captain, aguero or Firminho?

          2. ImTheDude
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Coleman is a no
            Brainier in my opinion, Baines isn't on corners or set pieces anymore. Decent chance lukaku will be taking the pk's as well. Coleman gets 3-4 goals a season from open play.

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

            I think Coleman for open play but I also think Baines might be the PK man this season, scored one already

        4. UnitedXCI
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Chadli fit to start?

          1. Defcons are for Kinnear
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Yes

        5. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years

          Swayed to go Coutinho over Firmino now and use extra cash to upgrade a defender.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Coutinho and Mane > Firmino when they play as front 3 😉 False 9 not always a good thing

          2. Defcons are for Kinnear
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Your choice

        6. Flynny

          Who is the best defender up to 5m for this wildcard??

          Baines xxx holebas Evans amat

          Looking at

          Lovren.....who seems may not play

          Stones.

          Any v8ews?....ta

            Was hoping to take a profit with my WC.

                Marshall will come in eventually. Maybe as soon as this GW, as Jaku made a couple of howlers last match.
                Jaku *may* go up tonight though, with late transfers in.

              Rashford as Deeney doesn't have good underlying stats.

              Guys, any thoughts on this WC squad?

              Pickford / Jaku
              Coleman / Walker / Holebas / Robertson / Amat
              Sterling / Antonio / Firmino / Capoue / Sanchez
              Aguero / Lukaku / Deeney

              Cap firmino or KDB? No Aguero in the team...,

                Consensus will probably be Firmino, but KDBizzle is the best player in the world right now

              Final touches...

              A) Ighalo or Deeney (ignore price please)
              B) start Evans (stk) or Holebas (bur)

              Cheers!
