Mohamed Salah (captain), <\/b>Liverpool<\/b>\u00a314m – <\/b>Crystal Palace<\/b> (h)<\/b><\/p>\n
You have to take a punt on Salah this week if you can, not least because it might be the last chance you get – with him leaving Liverpool at the end of the season.<\/p>\n
Palace could <\/i>end up being favourable opponents this week, if they are distracted at all by their European fixture.<\/p>\n
And Salah has a goal in his past three starts. His numbers in that time aren’t incredible – four shots on target, three big chances and three goals.<\/p>\n
But Salah is on penalties and it wouldn’t be a surprise if he found his way to two returns, which is what you want from a captain.<\/p>\n
Bruno Fernandes, <\/b>Manchester United<\/b>\u00a310.3m – <\/b>Brentford<\/b> (h)<\/b><\/p>\n
United flopped in their last home game – the 2-1 defeat by Leeds – but Fernandes still returned an assist.<\/p>\n
He’ll likely be on the teamsheet each week until the end of the season and is also a great captain choice.<\/p>\n
Harry Wilson, <\/b>Fulham<\/b>\u00a36m – <\/b>Aston Villa<\/b> (h)<\/b><\/p>\n
Only Fernandes (49%) has been involved in more of his side’s goals this season than Wilson (43%).<\/p>\n
Over their past six games, only Chelsea and Burnley have conceded more than Villa’s 13 goals.<\/p>\n
Expecting this match to be high-scoring, an attacking asset from each team makes this week’s XI.<\/p>\n
Casemiro, <\/b>Manchester United<\/b>\u00a35.7m – <\/b>Brentford<\/b> (h)<\/b><\/p>\n
Three goals in his past five starts for Casemiro and only Arsenal (19) have scored more set-piece goals than United (16), which is where the Brazilian thrives.<\/p>\n
This is also a pick that backs United’s attack – the third-highest scoring at home – to overcome Brentford’s defence.<\/p>\n
The Bees have conceded 1.11 goals per game at home compared to 1.56 on the road.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
