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.

      I went Suarez, but have the issue that I am loath to put a vc from the same game. So maybe Mata or Hazard for that.

          No, but surely that's risk enough.

        Imagine if you had Yaya(c), Negredo(vc) for SUN.

          my rival did this, beat his score by 20 odd points in the end, schoolboy error on his part

      I put my vice on yaya. Although the chance of a game getting called off without notice are close to zero I still never put captain and vice captain on players from the same team

        reminds me of a game I had Aguero C and Silva VC and Mancini benched both of them last season

          think it was two seasons ago, City v Bolton. Remember because I had the same two as C & VC - and that was the last time ever.

    Got 2 free transfers and don't know what to do, don't want to waste one

    Szczesny
    Coleman Koscielny Ward
    Hazard Yaya Lallana Eriksen
    Negredo Suarez Sturridge

    Davis Ward Bruce Pozuelo

    0.1 in the bank, with that amount of money I can't really improve my bench, would Eriksen to Ince this week and then saving a transfer for next week be a good idea or not?

      I'm not sure if he has now. Think Chamakh took one when he was still on the pitch.

      Ince for me. Ordinarily, if it was the fifth mid spot you'd go for the cheaper option but these are exceptional circumstances.

        You've still got "is 94 points any good" and "In my head-to-head/cup I've got 54 + Coleman to come and my rival has 48 + Yaya and Sterling to come. Who will win?" to look fwd to later.
