After a brief hiatus, it’s time to darken the door of our bookmaker friends, Paddy Power, to interrupt them counting out their Grand National profit and offer up some Scout Pick markets for this week’s “Flutter”.

With another double Gameweek looming large, Fantasy managers are already circling Swansea’s Michu. Strangely omitted from the Player of the Year nominations, the Spaniard has been an outstanding performer this term, cracking 17 goals in a debut Premier League season. It seems unlikely he’ll settle on that tally and with Southampton at the Liberty this weekend, Michu will be targeting his third goal in as many games. Paddy are offering up 17/2 on a Michu goal with a Swansea clean sheet at home to the Saints. We’ll have some of that to the tune of £3 of our stake money.

Robert Snodgrass didn’t quite sneak his way into the Picks this week but made our bench amidst strong competition for the midfield places. Nevertheless, the former Leeds man will likely be the chief tormentor of basement-dwellers Reading at Carrrow Road on Saturday. Snodgrass was on target against Swansea in his last home outing and Paddy are dangling 15/2 on a Snoddy goal with a Canaries clean sheet against the Royals. Those odds claim another £2 of our cash.

That leaves a cool fiver for our final two bets – the bulk of which is going on Paddy’s Romelu Lukaku market. The bustling Belgian started life on the bench in the 2-1 defeat to the Gunners but we can’t see beyond a start for him when Newcastle pay visit to the Hawthorns this weekend. The Magpies have been torn asunder by injuries and with spirits low after the shocking reverse to Sunderland, we’d wager they’ll be some joy for the Baggies and Lukaku. With odds of 8/1 on a Lukaku goal with a West Brom clean sheet against Newcastle, we’re comfortable with throwing £4 Paddy’s way.

Finally, that leaves just a pound coin for our usual treble bet. This week it pairs the goal power of Robin Van Persie and Luis Suarez, together with QPR’s desperation for a shut-out in their crucial clash with Stoke at Loftus Road. Paddy are offering 8/1 on a Van Persie goal against Villa, a Suarez strike when Chelsea visit Anfield and a clean sheet for the R’s at home to the Potters.

    Have a feeling the Everton players are going to score good tonight.

    Sunderland is a fundamentally shitty team, feeling over confident at the moment due to a one off win, with an over optimistic manager. Fancy Moyes to clearly outwit Di Canio and Everton to put 2-3 past them and deflate them again.

    You heard it here first;)
