→ The 2014/15 season was Sergio Aguero's best ever for Fantasy returns. Seven of his goals/assists and 36 of his FPL points came in two meetings with which club that year? Scout Betting

With a goal from reliable Robin, an assist from Juan Mata and a clean sheet from Sunderland, we took Paddy Power for three crisp tenners last week as our weekly treble bet came in. Back in profit, can we maintain momentum with this week’s markets?

Determined to claw back our winnings, Paddy are dangling a very tempting proposition our way to open things up. With 13 goals to his name, Michu has been a sensation and, with Stoke at the Liberty this weekend, the Spaniard will be looking to add to their impressive first season tally. He’s gone three starts without a strike, while the Swans have conceded in their last three home matches. Even so, odds of 5/1 on a Michu goal with a Swansea clean sheet against the Potters look tasty and we’re willing to go gung-ho and throw no less than £4 the way of Paddy on this market.

Steven Gerrard found a place in our Scout Picks last night with Luis Suarez missing out. While Suarez seems to have hoodoo over the Canaries, we’re still backing Gerrard to get amongst the points have bagged returns in seven consecutive starts. Chris Hughton’s side have conceded in their last five away trips and we’re backing a home win with the skipper again getting in on the act. Paddy are dangling 4/1 on a Gerrard goal with a Liverpool clean sheet against Norwich and we’re more than happy to take them up on that for £2 of our money.

The final single player market involves City’s clash with an out-of-sorts Fulham. Although Edin Dzeko makes way for Sergio Aguero in our Scout Picks this week, the Bosnian has four goals in his last three league outings and looks primed to punish the Cottagers in today’s clash. Paddy are clearly backing City here, with just 2/1 on offer for a Dzeko goal with a City clean sheet. Nonetheless, we’ll throw them another £3 of our stake for this one.

That leaves just a solitary shekel for our treble market and, having triumphed last week, we’re perhaps hedging our bets somewhat this time around. A Van Persie goal against Spurs, together with a David Silva assist against Fulham and a Liverpool clean sheet is being offered at 10/1 by our bookmaker friends.

    I am doing Mata->Cazorla for free, and I have a feeling Torres might start this match, so am ready for a 4pt hit to take out Ba.

    Whom would you get as a Ba replacement for under 9? Cisse, Dzeko or Sturridge? Remember it's one gw.

    As a Saints fan, I am so disappointed that Atkins as been replaced as is 99% of the supporters but like it or not I do hope the fans show respect and support to the new Manager and direct their anger at the Chairman. After all there isn't anything us fans can do like it or not but what we can do is give our team the best support we can give if we want to stay and progress in the Premier League. Look at the Chelsea game where their fans booed them off the pitch you don't get that atmosphere at St Marys win or loose and I hope fans can use their heads and look past the loss of a great manager and do what they can to help the new manager settle in.

    Morning all - sorry, lost on last page

    Which of these is best after this GW? Current Def = Gibbs, Demel, Davies, Harte, Zab

    A – Gibbs & Suarez (have now)

    B – Aguero & Cameron (would be doubling up on stoke)

    C – Aguero & Sagna

    D – Aguero & Gallas (when fit)

    Cheers

      Wish list for today:

      -A West Ham cleanie with Demel starting
      -A Michu goal (or two)
      -Red cards to Suarez and Sturridge. 🙂

      Don't care much about the rest of the games.

      I feel like playing both Ba and Dzeko. Should i bench Bale or Mata for that?

      Or should I just put Ba on the bench?

      Bale to Cazorla for a hit seems to be madness with Caz current form?

      Assuming:
      Aguero's return puts Dzeko in doubt
      Podolski may not be fit for Chels/WH
      I've got Gibbs

      Which would you go for:
      Sagna (free)
      Dzeko (free)
      Pod (-4 but + Demel)

      With Evans injured, my defence will be Harte, Clyne and Gibbs. Worth a -4 to bring in an Arsenal or WHM defender?

        yes, harte won't keep a clean sheet! get in Sagna at 5.1 or demel at 4.0! Sagna also has 4/5 games at home after the Chelsea game
