I’m also curious about Potter’s back-three selections for Saturday, seeing as Wesley Fofana, Marc Cucurella, Kalidou Koulibaly, and Benoit Badiashile are all in tremendous form. Choosing only three is undoubtedly a difficult task, but I see it as a pure positive that the squad has too many good defenders. They’ll be ready for an early barrage.

Riding unders in nearly every recent match has been a strange experience, but mostly a positive one. I have to admit that it would be nice to see a 7-0-type scoreline in favor of the Blues at some point, but for now, I’m happy to continue counting cash with a snoozer on my TV. Let’s hope for more of the same this coming weekend. For my first two picks, I’ll take the aforementioned under 2.5 goals at -120 odds and the second half to have more goals prop at +114. Finally, give me a new prop I’ve had my eye on since Tuesday, Chelsea to score the first goal at -155 odds. A lone second-half strike from the Blues would be massive for my chance at perfection against Leicester. Time to dust off the ole’ crystal ball.
