→ 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.

    II only have 3 fit defenders Sagna - Luiz - Baines do you think I should take a hit to sell either Cuellar or Fonte for someone who is fit bearing in m ind the risk of cancellations due to snow today? I have 1 million spare and I guess I could offset the point cost by making it a west ham defender and get a DGW. I am already maxed out on Arsenal players

      not for a hit. Luiz has a chance to get more then just 2 against the gunners.

      if you take a hit and zabaleta gets a cleansheet you still only get 2.

      just wait till all games are finished, check for unexpected injuries and red cards then use your 2 free transfers to get the 2 that you want

      Maybe Fonte -> Demel? Straight swap. Demel is first choice RB and I don't see O'Briens supposed higher attacking threat being worth the 0.5 or so. Sagna Baines Demel is a really nice back 3 this GW.

      That said, unless there are cancellations, I don't know if it's worth a hit. Do we reckon there can be cancellations even after deadline? Isn't that a little short notice?
