→ 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

Scuppered by Roberto Mancini’s rotational policy, last week’s Flutter didn’t quite go as planned. Our £20 stake on a Man City white wash was returned to the Scout wallet after both Sergio Aguero and David Silva were left twiddling on the bench. But as Paddy have posted a couple of special doubles amongst their Cheltenham frenzy, we’re letting our money ride straight into this week’s bets…

Two teams in red take our focus this week as Liverpool travel to Sunderland for part one of their double Gameweek and Man United host West Brom in a potential title banana skin encounter. Paddy have priced up anytime goalscorer, win and clean-sheet bets, featuring Wayne Rooney and Luiz Suarez.

Although Rooney has been amongst the goals of late, and the 15/8 is comparatively better value, West Brom are riding high of the back of three solid wins. Goal bonanza’s against Wolves and Sunderland, and a stern 1-0 against Chelsea suggest that Roy Hodgson’s side will put up a fight – that shifts Rooney’s bet out of our crosshairs and has us looking to Suarez and Liverpool instead.

Sunderland’s resurgence under Martin O’Neil suffered a major blow via a 4-0 drubbing to the Baggies, while the dismissal of Stephane Sessegnon and Lee Cattermole in the Tyne-Wear derby stalemate last weekend will surely be felt when Liverpool come knocking. Although Suarez has struggled to fire, he showed enough against Arsenal to suggest he’ll trouble the Black Cats. Paddy are offering 7/2 on a Suarez anytime goal with Liverpool winning with a clean sheet – that’s enough to tempt us and our double stake of £20 is placed.

Paddy’s other Scout specials top and tail the Gameweek, with a Ryo Miyachi special in the weekend’s opening game at the Reebok and an Arsenal goalscorer double in Monday night’s game.

Robin Van Perise and Theo Walcott may well be disappointed at their failure to progress in the Champions league, but they’re sure to be happy about the momentum built on the domestic front. Tenacious wins against Spurs and Liverpool lead them into this week’s encounter with Newcastle – a real test of their staying power. The Newcastle back four is expected to be under pressure and Van Persie and Walcott both to score is rocking a reasonable 100/30 at Paddy.

Ryo Miyachi has only featured in three Bolton games after being loaned from the Gunners, and unfortunately for him, they’ve all been defeats. Not a great introduction to the Premier League for the 19-year-old but with struggling QPR at the Reebok on Saturday, his prospects look set to improve. With a 4.9 FPL price tag and a mention in the Scout Picks this week, Miyachi might well emerge as an end of season budget bandwagon with legs. For those of you skeptical of the short prices offered in the above specials, Paddy are offering an interest friendly 11/2 on a Miyachi goal and a Bolton win at home to the R’s.

      Liverpool aren't expected to have a cracker, but it's still a double gw. Try and fit one liverpool defender by replacing Richards.

    Who would you play if you had Vorm in goal.

    a) Caulker (means doubling up on Swans)
    b) Shotton (plays against Mata, who I have)
    c) Simpson (plays against RVP-Captain, who I also have )

      doubt any of these will keep it clean, so prioritize not letting in 6 goals (like Simpson will), and being able to contribute forwards (Caulker and Shotton). Since you have Vorm, Id hedge it and go Shotton
