Andrew French is a massive advocate of Multiples betting, and every week he has been giving us three teams to back in a treble. This week Andrew fancies Preston, Yeovil and Bournemouth to do the business.


Leg 1: Preston at [2.17] to beat Blackpool

Although they are only three points outside the Championship play-off places, the wheels have just come off a bit lately for Blackpool - and I think their disappointing recent form will be extended at Preston this weekend. Ian Holloway's side were flying earlier in the season, but just lately they have lost their last three games amid a run of just one win in eight outings. Results have been very mixed for new Preston boss Darren Ferguson, but the midweek victory over Sheffield United showed what they can do - and a repeat showing should be enough for them to take maximum points from this one. Therefore, start your treble with Preston at [2.17].


Leg 2: Yeovil at [1.84] to beat Gillingham

The travel sickness kings of League One are clearly Gillingham - without a win on the road all season, 12 defeats in 15 trips, and a whopping 35 goals conceded. They were trounced 4-0 at Brentford last weekend, and their midweek 1-0 home defeat to Tranmere made it a miserable one goal in the last six games in all competitions for the Kent side. They make the lengthy east to west journey to face Yeovil this weekend. The Somerset side won 4-1 at Wycombe last Saturday, and although their home form isn't overly clever, they won't get a better chance to improve upon it than a visit from the Gills. At [1.84], I'm backing Yeovil.


Leg 3: Bournemouth at [2.71] to beat Dagenham and Redbridge

In League Two, Dagenham and Redbridge have slipped down the table due to a run of four consecutive defeats - in fact they have lost six of their last seven and failed to score in five of those games. So, I am surprised to see them priced up as favourites for the visit of second-placed Bournemouth. The Cherries have won three of their last four, including back-to-back away wins, and the midweek home win over fellow promotion chasers Notts County showed they are well worth their lofty league position. At what looks a very plump [2.71], I'm completing my treble with Bournemouth.


*The Treble pays around 11.26
