Let down by Gareth Bale’s strange affliction at the Lane, James Morrison’s injury and a string of Adel Taarabt near misses last weekend, Paddy are back to test our resolve with another round of markets based on our Scout Pick selections…

We start with another player seemingly cursed by an inability to score points in home matches – Arsenal’s Santi Cazorla. A firm favourite around these parts, the Spaniard has so far scored all his goals on the road and mustered just a single assist in four Emirates clashes. Despite stuttering form, the Gunners are well fancied at home to free-scoring Fulham and, while a clean sheet looks shaky here, we like the cut of Paddy’s jib as they dangle odds of 6/1 on a goal for Cazorla with an Arsenal shut-out against Jol’s men. We’ll take that for our first three quid.

Next up is another midfielder currently in bloom. Everton’s Marouane Fellaini is having a huge impact on the Premier League this term, as David Moyes’ side enjoy a barnstorming campaign that has bristled with goal threat. They look firm favourites to knock over a shot-shy Sunderland at Goodison and, with a home clean sheet looking likely, Paddy’s odds of 4/1 on a Fellaini goal with a Toffees shut-out looks very appealing. This gets the bulk of our tenner this week, as we throw £4 Paddy’s way.

Demba Ba looks to be fit to lead the Newcastle attack against one of his former clubs this weekend. The Senegalese striker appears to have shaken off the shin problem that saw him forced off on 48 minutes at Anfield and will surely pose the biggest threat to the Hammers on Sam Allardyces’ return to the North East. Paddy are backing Ba here, offering 9/2 on another Ba strike and Newcastle clean sheet. We’ll keep some money back and give them £2 on this.

That leaves just a solitary shekel to put down on our weekly treble. This time is Carlos Tevez in the goalscorer market, with Paddy also featuring Juan Mata and the Everton backline. We can get 12/1 on a Tevez goal in the big game against Spurs, a Mata assist in Chelsea’s clash with Liverpool and an Everton cleanie against the Black Cats. That’s our tenner spent for another seven days. Good luck with your fluttering.
