Higher priced goalscorer options

Saul Niguez missed last weekend's defeat at Real Betis, but the Atletico Madrid midfielder looks like being able to feature on Saturday.

On the other side, Real boast the top scoring defender in La Liga in Sergio Ramos who has scored five times.

Ramos has netted ten goals in all competitions in the current campaign including against Atletico in the UEFA Super Cup, and also is a man for the big occasions.

Niguez is priced at 5/1 (6.00) to score at anytime and in a game where clear-cut chances may be at a premium his talent for long-range shooting could be vital. Ramos is priced at 18/5 (4.60) with the 31-year-old also a threat from the penalty spot.
