Bet that Eden Hazard dictates the shape of today’s Chelsea-Arsenal clash, whether he starts or not.

Hazard is being eased back from injury by Antonio Conte — and that means the will-he won’t-he wand-footed Belgian makes it TWO huge question marks on Arsene Wenger’s chalkboard.

The other, after the vanishing act at Anfield, is how many Gunners will actually turn up at Stamford Bridge in more than name only?

Tactical uncertainty is not a good look for any elite side, but it could be that Arsenal wear it slightly worse than most. They need a foolproof plan.

I’m betting Arsene takes a leaf out of the Bridget Jones Diary of Football Strategies and forgets the lacy allure of sexy football — in favour of a more ‘big pants’ approach.

If the theory holds up, I reckon the ‘time of first goal’ line has been pegged way too low — take the Evens (Paddy) the first goal is scored OVER 24 minutes.

If he starts, Alexis Sanchez at 21/10 (Paddy) is the price pick of the likelier 'anytime scorer' candidates.

Everton spent much of Thursday night in Italy with their pants down. Any tired minds could be cruelly exposed at Old Trafford in the later kick-off.

You and I might think a schedule of four hours’ graft in four days, with a city break thrown in, would be reason to break out the slim panatellas.

But the Thursday-Sunday Euroky-cokey can leave a finely tuned footballer a bit mopey.

Manchester United have been forced back to the drawing board with the injury to Paul Pogba too.

So, we’re punting in fog — stick to prices big enough to see in the gloom.

I’ll tickle an ‘anytime scorer’ longshot that should at least provide 90 minutes of possibility.

Take the 25/1 (Bet365) about Toffees veteran Phil Jagielka ‘anytime scorer’ — his stats rate him a slightly bigger threat than that price suggests.
