The Fantasy Flutter – Gameweek 3

2,728 Comments
Share

We go up against Paddy with a tenner in hand once again and seek inspiration from the Scout Picks and Differentials in our attempt to bring home the cash.

We start at Loftus Road where QPR welcome Sunderland later this afternoon. Scout Pick Steven Caulker has already registered six attempts inside the box in just two appearances, and with Paddy prepared to offer 20/1 on a Caulker goal and QPR clean sheet, we’re willing to place our faith in his attacking instincts and shell out £3 for the Loftus Road encounter.

Next stop is the Etihad, where champions City take on Stoke. Having scored twice from the bench in recent matches, we’re going to stick our necks out and back Sergio Aguero to deliver yet again. The Argentine is pushing for a start against the Potters, and with Paddy offering 6/1 on Aguero to score two or more and City to chalk up a clean sheet, we’re making this our bet of the Gameweek, throwing £4 their way.

Our final £3 is kept for West Ham’s home match against Southampton. Summer signing Mauro Zarate grabbed a goal on his first start last weekend, and with Kevin Nolan injured, looks to have nailed down the role in “the hole” for Sam Allardyce’s side. Paddy are offering a massive 50/1 for the little Argentine to score two or more and for the hosts to keep a clean sheet – we fancy a punt on this one and part company with our final £3.

Register and Bet £10 And Get £20 Free

If you’re new to Paddy Power, you can take up any of these odds and get yourself a bonus. You can sign up on this site and get a free £20 when you register an account and bet a tenner.

Finally, of course, we should state that all these offers are only available to those aged 18 and over and are subject to Paddy Power’s terms and conditions. Also, if you’re going to bet, always gamble responsibly.

        I've tried to justify C choice with the logic that I've only got 1 City player (Jovetic) vs 2 Utd (Rooney / Mata) so more spread by captaining Jovetic. Not sure it stacks up but it makes me feel better... for now

    Looking at the RMT-feature in the Members section. Why would the system rate one player higher than another, but still advice me to bench the player with the highest point scoring chances?

    Example:
    Jovetic 3.27 b1
    Naismith 3.14

    Surely Naismith should be the one to be benched here, and not the other way around?

    Is it just me, or have Man Utd went a bit overkill on the left sided fullback signings?

    Rojo, Shaw and Blind now too? How do they all fit in when everyones fit?
    Only way I can think is a 4-4-2 with blind left of midfield, Shaw left back and Rojo left CB.

    But in such a case, even if Di Maria was CM, where would Mata, RVP and Rooney all fit in?

    The right flank seems noticeably weaker than the left.
