The Fantasy Flutter with Paddy Power – Gameweek 27

22 February 2014 730 comments

We back a trio of Scout Picks in this week’s attempt to get the better of Paddy Power. Tenner in hand, we hope to take advantage of some strong home games for three of the top four before the fixture list starts to play havoc from next weekend onwards.

Our first stop is at Stamford Bridge, where Chelsea are set to welcome Everton in the first match of the Gameweek. Paddy are offering very inviting odds of 5/1 on Eden Hazard to score and Jose Mourinho’s side to keep a clean sheet. Given that the Belgian has notched in three of his previous five home matches and the Blues have conceded just three times in the last 10 league matches, this one looks too good to turn down and takes £3 of our kitty.

Next up, we shift our attentions to the Emirates, as Arsenal look to bounce back from their midweek Champions League loss at the hand of Bayern Munich. This time around, Paddy are prepared to offer 6/1 on a Santi Cazorla goal and Gunners clean sheet – bearing in mind that Arsene Wenger’s side have conceded once in their last nine at home and Cazorla has notched three times in the last five, we’re willing to shell out a further £3 on this one.

Our final £4 goes on Liverpool’s home game against Swansea. Paddy are offering 6/1 on Luis Suarez to score two or more and Brendan Rodgers’ side to keep a clean sheet against the weary Welsh outfit. Suarez may have toiled for goals in recent matches but with 16 of his 22 strikes arriving at Anfield, it’s fair to say he prefers home comforts and will fancy his chances of returning to form against a Swans side fatigued by their Europa League clash with Napoli on Thursday evening.

Register and Bet £10 And Get £20 Free

If you’re new to Paddy Power, then you can take up any of these odds and get yourself a bonus. You can sign up on this site and get a free £20 when you register an account and bet a tenner.

    The ultimate FPL game seems to have a problem with its transfer filters 🙁

    The main change with the game is that you sub your Saturday players for your Sunday players if they did shit.

    Currently have Seamus in the hot seat on attacking potential, but away to Chelsea just doesn't smack of a game he's going to get much out of. If Chester plays I can see a Hull cleansheet win at Cardiff and I'm not convinced Utd are going to do much at Palace

    Was all set to save my FT this week but should I use it now that it seems Ozil has been left out of the Arsenal squad?! Messes up my 28 and 29 plans a bit if I do!

    Boruc
    Kos / Azpil / Burner
    Hazard / Ozil / Silva / Lallana
    Dzeko / Suarez (c) / Ade

    Davis / Barkley / MOlsson / Chester

    1FT, 3.1 in the bank

      You will probably sell him before the blank anyway so why not sell now?

        Was hoping to gave him for this and Stoke away so I could lose Silva and Dzeko for free next week 🙁

        Any recommendations on a replacement for Ozil? Worth punting on a player I want for 28/29 now like Ince even though he's playing United?

          I would do that but the idea of having nearly 8 million in the bank isn't great either.... 🙁

    Any chance of Everton game being rescheduled during GW29, i.e. no blank for them?

    With a nice run of home fixtures, I wouldn't sell any of their players and may consider adding.

    Quick question for you guys. I have two freebies this week but dunno what to do. If I don't do any transfer, does it mean I can do two free transfers in the next 2 GW?

      No. You just lose a FT but will still have 2 next week.

      It does. But you lose one effectively. Why don't you post your team and get a few suggestions. I hate the idea of losing a ft

      Yes, you'll have 2FTs next week

      After that, how many you have depends on how many transfers you do next week

    - a baines penalty... and hence no chelsea cleanie
    - brighton semi-giant killing on monday
    - a sensational performance by david silva, in support of a load of silva is 10 times the player ozil is headlines next week
