The Fantasy Flutter: Betting odds on the midweek Premier League action 3

BE DE-SAISS-IVE

Romain Saïss‘ recent goal-scoring form could continue when Wolves host Everton on Tuesday evening.

Over the last four matches, the Toffees rank inside the bottom four for headed goal attempts conceded, which bodes well for the Moroccan centre-back.

During that same period, he ranks top among defenders for shots in the box and producing two goals in the process.

The fact that he is 22/1 to open the scoring at Molineux, or 9/1 to net anytime, is attractive indeed.

Meanwhile, if Richarlison can win his fitness race, his odds of 7/1 to get the first goal appeal too.

The return of Lucas Digne and James Rodríguez to Everton’s line-up, and absence of striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin could ensure more high-quality service to Richarlison’s left-flank. Wolves have conceded 23 chances down the right-hand side over the last six matches, compared to just eight through the middle.

RASH DECISIONS

Marcus Rashford could benefit from Burnley’s own problems defending wide areas in Blank Gameweek 18.

The Clarets have conceded the second-highest number of chances down the right-hand side over the last four matches, somewhere Rashford could do damage at Turf Moor.

If Paul Pogba is unable to start Tuesday’s short road trip, the England international should reclaim his left-sided attacking midfield role, from which he has six goals and four assists away from home this season.

In fact, Rashford has no Premier League blanks on the road in 2020/21, which is why his first-scorer odds of 4/1 on Tuesday look good.

THE BIG GUNS

Ilkay Gündogan has been creeping under the radar in recent weeks, recording three goals in his last four Premier League appearances.

The two most recent of those have come in a more advanced role for Manchester City, which has helped him even outperform his esteemed colleagues Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling over the last four matches.

Despite playing marginally fewer minutes than both of them, the German international has a higher total for shots in the box and big chances.

That’s why Gündogan’s odds of 10/1 to be the first scorer at the Etihad Stadium are worth considering.

He has both the underlying statistics and the form to back up his appeal in a favourable home fixture – Brighton have just two clean sheets on the road this season.

Elsewhere, Sheffield United’s meeting with Newcastle is 6/1 for a 0-0 and Alexandre Lacazette, who has four goals in his last three, is 10/3 to open the scoring for Arsenal against Crystal Palace.

    Guys, rate my FH team pleeease!

    Lloris
    Cancelo-Dias-Tierney
    Bruno-KDB(c)-Saka-Son
    Kane-Wilson-Laca

    Any changes needed??

    1. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      It’s solid. Pretty template

    2. sminkypinky
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Imo it’s the bomb! Pretty much what I wanted but couldn’t afford.

    3. Salan
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Good. But 3 Arsenal 1 Manchester United players seems something wrong... dunno why having this feeling.

  2. Bad Kompany
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Bottomed. Repost.

    Is Martial likely to start?

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      50/50 with Cavani

      1. Bad Kompany
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Cheers!

  3. Steirish
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Start brewster or Lowton?

    1. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Brewster

  4. MoSalalalalalalalalah
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Best GK for this GW? Avoiding the expensive ones like Leno, DDG and Lloris

    1. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      How is Leno expensive? Darlow imo

    2. sminkypinky
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Lloris best option. Sadly couldn’t afford him myself.

    3. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I have Darlow, dour Newcastle vs impotent Sheffield Utd suggests defensive points to me.

      1. stu92
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Remember that Dubravka is now fit again. Darlow will probably start but there’s always the risk.

        1. Ginkapo FPL
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          If only we could select two keepers

          1. stu92
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            That all depends on your strategy I guess. I’m on FH this week and want to maximise value in my first 11.

            Darlow + Areola is more expensive than DDG + 4.0 and only 0.1 less than Lloris + 4.0. If you’ve cash to burn or already had two goalies then knock yourself out but personally not keen on 2 playing goalies on FH.

  5. dee_top
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Better to have only this GW:
    A) Wilson v She away
    B) Neto v Eve home
    C) someone else from this price bracket?

    1. lilmessipran
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A

    2. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A

      1. Ëð
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Or Saka if you don't already have him

    3. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A. Or saka or traore

  6. lilmessipran
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Would you Fh this lot or take a hit or two here?

    Dias stones lowton Mitchell
    Kdb son Bruno
    Brewster

    1ft 1.2 itb

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Make a few transfers, not worth using FH

    2. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Probably wouldn’t fh

  7. Neo-Viper
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    REPOST

    A) Cancelo Neto(1st on bench)
    OR
    B) Saiss(1st on Bench) Foden

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      B if you feel like a gamble, A to play safe

      1. Neo-Viper
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Cheers!

  8. Ëð
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Probably very template, but anything you could change here? On a FH

    Leno, 4.0
    Cancelo, Stones, Tierney (Yedlin, Mitchell)
    KDB, Bruno, Rashford, Son, Saka
    Kane, Wilson (Brewster)

    1. sminkypinky
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Gtg

    2. Neo-Viper
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Solid!

    3. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Leno to Darlow imo but it looks good

      1. Pukkipartyy
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Darlow is not sure to start...

    4. Whiskerz
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Only worry is double arsenal defense.

      1. Ëð
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Agreed. Just not convinced by Darlow starting. Might make the switch if any early team news.

    5. Salan
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I would change Leno to DDG / Lloris.

  9. CapK
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    For FH GW18 would you rather

    a) Sterling + Leno (basic defence holding / stones etc)
    b) Son + Darlow (slightly better defence tierney / cancello etc)

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      B

      1. CapK
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks dude! Im thinking that too - A lot of resources saying double city attack is the move, but I dont think I would want anyone other than Sterling, otherwise Son > Gundo / foden imo

        1. Ëð
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          I think just KDB is enough. Cancelo can provide further cover. Funds are better spent elsewhere rather than KDB + Sterling in my opinion

  10. farmerfat
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone taking a punt on B.Silva? Showing some good form recently.

  11. iL PiStOlErO
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    How about this FH team? Everything ok here?

    Lloris
    Cancelo Tierney AWB
    Kdb Bruno Son Saka Neto
    Kane(C) Lacca

    4.0 Mitchell Kliman 4.3

    Cheers good people.

    1. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Looks good!

    2. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Lovely team

  12. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    ON FH

    Saka and McGoldrick

    Or Riedwald and Martial

    Neither of McGoldrick or Riedwald will actually start.

    Darlow (4m)
    Holding Dias AWB (Kilman Mitchell)
    Bruno Son KDB Gundo ***
    Kane Wilson ****

    1. Neo-Viper
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Saka

    2. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I think mcgoldrick will start

    3. Whiskerz
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A but downgrade mcgoldrick to brewster and use spare funds to improve defense?

      1. Van der Faart
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Thinking of going for Reguilon over AWB?

        1. Van der Faart
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Or Lloris over Darlow

          1. Whiskerz
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Either of those are better options. Lloris more nailed.

    4. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Saka and Mcg!

    5. Hansel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      First

    6. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Thanks all.

    Hey, apologies if already asked but which press conferences are today?

    1. farmerfat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Would also love to know this

  14. Whiskerz
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Morning folks. What do you think of this FH draft? Enough on the bench?

    Lloris
    Tierney. Cancello. Stones
    Son. KDB. Bruno. Rashford. Saka
    Kane. Wilson

    4.0. Brewster. Bryan. Mitchell

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Looking good. Jealous you can afford Lloris!

  15. Von Lipwig
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    FH
    a) Neto
    b) Wilson

    1. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      b

  16. Pukkipartyy
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    I think this is pretty templete. Thoughts?

    Lloris
    Dias Tierney Cancelo
    Rashford Bruno KDB Saka Son
    Kane Wilsson

    4.0 Brewster Clark Lacselles

  17. sminkypinky
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    All the FH teams are pretty template so I’m more interested in your captain choice.

    Personally going Kane on a hunch despite captain article and RMT tool. And you?

    1. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      KDB or Kane, will flip a coin.

    2. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Bruno or KDB for me. Still deciding which one.

      Both are also very involved and on pens. But they also have set pieces, get extra points for being mids, and play for teams that won’t sit back after going up a couple

      1. sminkypinky
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Bruno predicted highest scorer. Both excellent options. If Kdb remains higher, he’s a proper threat too.
        Still somehow Kane lures me. 🙂

        1. Bad Kompany
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          I’d be on KDB if I knew that Gabriel Jesus isn’t playing.

    3. Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I dont get why they all have KDB. Since when did everyone forget he isnt getting lots of points?

      1. sminkypinky
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Risk management?

      2. sminkypinky
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Oh sorry. You meant as captain. My bad.

    4. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Kane

  18. Pukki Blinders
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    What’s with this Martial hype? 8.8m for an out of form, lazy player who is at serious risk of being dropped for Cavani this week...

    1. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Dont get it either.

  19. S.Kuqi
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    On wildcard. What to do with Martinez?

    Could have 0-3 games next gw.

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Get rid

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      keep on the bench.

      how is the wc looking?

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Okayish

    3. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If u got him 4.5 - 4.7 then keep for sure!

    4. sminkypinky
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I would’ve personally preferred to WC before FH but couldn’t find a setup to my liking.
      Out of interest did you find a decent team which you’re happy with for 18/19 and going forward (26 etc)? Not concerned about using it already?

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yes. Looks good for gw18/19/20.

        Few tweaks needs to be made

    5. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Keep

    6. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I’m on WC and I’m not getting rid, I bought him for 4.5..

  20. MoSalalalalalalalalah
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Who is everyone captaining?

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Kane

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      You

    3. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Look up a bit

  21. afsr
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Tinkered with FH a bit, what do you think?

    Lloris
    Tierney, Cancelo, Saiss
    KdB, Bruno, Sterling, Saka, Neto
    Kane, Lacazette

    4.0, Mitchell, 3.9, Brewster
    0.0 ITB

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      perfect

  22. Millie7
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Mccarthy
    MITCHELL - DIAS - HOLDING
    Salah - SON - FERNANDES - REIDEWALD - Grealish
    Bamford - DCL

    Nyland - Targett - Robertson - Adam’s

    Tempted by FH, but even more tempted by WC looking at the shambles of a team I’ll have for gw19??

    1.3ITB
    1FT

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      You only have 5 starters, maybe 4 of Mitchell doesn’t start. FH would suffice

      1. Millie7
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        The problem is not necessarily this week its GW19 as currently i would only have 3xplayers guaranteed a DGW!!

  23. Bleh
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Is DCL > Brewster (-4) this week to fund Son, Holding > Salah, Robbo (-4) next week madness?

    Have Kane.

    1. Gemma817
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Nah pretty constructive actually

      1. Bleh
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Cheers!

  24. Gemma817
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Need some help here folks

    a) Bruno, Laca, Tierney
    b) Rashford, Kane, Holding

    I'll cap KDB.

    1. Bleh
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Tough one, probably B to avoid the Arsenal double up.

  25. AiAiCaptain
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Saving the FH, how does this team hold up for a -4?

    DDG
    Stones Cancelo Lowton Mitchell
    Salah KDB (C) Son
    Laca Brewster
    (Steer Dallas Soucek Bamford)

    Laca is part of the -4 for DCL, but also considering Martial because of the DGW coming up. Thoughts?

  26. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Not easy this a FH, any tweaks?

    Leno,
    Stones, Cancelo, Saiss
    Rashford, Bruno, Son, KDB
    Kane, Laca, Wilson

    Sanchez, ASR, Mitchell, 3.9

  27. Max City
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    My GW17 Team:

    Martinez Forster
    Holgate Dallas Dunne Cresswell Justin
    Salah Fernandez Rashford Son Grealish
    Watkins Brewster Bamford

    Did
    Salah + Dunne >> KDB + Cancelo for free, so my GW18 plan was:

    Martinez**
    Holgate* Cancelo
    KDB Fernandez Rash Son Grealish**
    Brewster* Watkins**

    Now I only have 5 players:

    Cancelo
    KDB Fernandez Rashford Son

    Shall I

    A) Take hits
    B) FH >>> meaning I will have Dunne back at GW18

    1. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      After the Villa cancellation I was left with six after a hit,

      Stones, Cancelo
      Bruno, Son, KDB
      Kane,

      Just deciding if to FH, team above?

      1. Max City
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        really depends on how your team will look at DGW19..

        Now the more I think about it the more want to WC this GW!
