Following Vieira’s dramatic return to the Premier League with Manchester City, Paddy Power have backed the Frenchman 13/2 to score his first goal for the club on Monday against Blackburn. The former Arsenal Captain is also priced at 15/2 to make a big impact and score against his old foe Manchester United on January 19th.

The feisty midfielder will be keen to ensure he makes an impact on his return but will over his enthusiasm have the referee reaching for his book The bookmaker quotes him at 5/4 to be sent off by the end of the season.

Even the early rumours of Vieira’s return made headlines, but he could mark his comeback with a really big bang by either scoring or getting sent off. Of course after Blackburn come the Carling Cup Semi Finals against Manchester United which should be great for both sets of fans.
