You vs WhoScored: WhoScored Expert MondoGoal XI - Gameweek 33

 

Kelvin Davis - £7.3m (away vs Stoke)

In the absence of Fraser Forster between now and the end of the season, veteran keeper Kelvin Davis is the man hoping to protect Southampton's fantastic defensive record. The 38-year old kept a clean sheet last time out and Saints have only conceded more than once in a league game once in the calendar year, with a trip to the Britannia up next for Koeman's men.

John Stones - £6.2m (home vs Burnley)

Burnley may well be no well pushovers but there is little doubt that if they do go down it will be due to a lack of goals in the side, with just one scored in their last 6 matches. Everton, meanwhile, have tightened things up at the back to concede just 2 goals in their last 4 matches, with John Stones performing admirably in that run, placing 7th in WhoScored's form rankings for defenders with a rating of 7.50 over his last 3 appearances.

Scott Dann - £6.3m (home vs West Brom)

While the likes of Yannick Bolasie and Glenn Murray get the plaudits further forward, Palace's defensive resolve has been key to their superb form under Alan Pardew. Dann is an integral part of that and faces a West Brom side that have scored fewer goals on the road (9) than any other team. The centre-back also carries a great threat from set pieces and with the hosts 'very likely' to score from such a situation in WhoScored's match forecast, Dann is a very cost effective option.

Danny Rose - £9.0m (away vs Newcastle)

Tottenham may have had a disappointing spell of late but they'll be confident of improving their fortunes against a Newcastle side in freefall. Danny Rose was arguably Spurs' top performer against Villa last time out, offering a constant outlet on the left, and will be part of an away backline that will be hoping to ensure that Newcastle can't build on their meagre total of 1 goal from 5 matches.

James McCarthy - £6.4m (home vs Burnley)

He may not seem an obvious choice but James McCarthy always gets through plenty of work and, in recent weeks, has played with a little more freedom. The Ireland international has scored a goal and registered an assist in his last 4 appearances, should see plenty of the ball against Burnley and could also pick up points for a solid defensive showing from the Toffees.

Fernandinho - £5.9m (home vs West Ham)

Manchester City may have blown any chance of retaining their crown but they must now play for some pride between now and the end of the season, with Liverpool still hoping to take their place in the top 4. Despite their dismal run Fernandinho has been a solid performer, taking his place in WhoScored's top 10 in-form midfielders, with an average rating of 7.75 over his last 3 appearances.

Juan Mata - £14.4m (away vs Chelsea)

An away match against Chelsea may not seem like the ideal match this weekend but Juan Mata will certainly feel that he has a point to prove. Only Eden Hazard and teammate Ander Herrera have a better rating over their last three appearances of all midfielders (8.28), with the Spaniard registering 3 goals and an assist in that time and United tipped to score as a result of a through ball at the Bridge according to WhoScored's match forecast.

Jonjo Shelvey - £8.7m (away vs Leicester)

Though Leicester are beginning to show that they are far from doomed just yet, Swansea will be confident of a repeat performance from their 2-0 win over the Foxes earlier in the season, picking up 7 points from a possible 9 of late. Jonjo Shelvey ensured the last of those from the spot to equalise against Everton last time out and the Swans are deemed 'very likely' to score as a result of a through ball at the King Power Stadium.

Jamie Vardy - £7.2m (home vs Swansea)

While Leicester will do well to keep Swansea at bay this Saturday Nigel Pearson will certainly be confident that his side will be among the goals once more, scoring 8 in their last 3 matches. The home side are tipped to 'create many scoring chances' and Jamie Vardy has hit form of late, with 2 goals and 2 assists in his last 3 appearances - contributing to 50% of Leicester's goals in that time.

Sergio Agüero - £13.5m (home vs West Ham)

City may have fallen to a 4-2 defeat at the hands of local rivals United last time out but the consolation was that Sergio Agüero was back among the goals. The Argentine has a personal award to play for - even if his side are out of the title race - aiming to win the Golden Boot, and he has scored 4 goals in his last 5 appearances against West Ham, who are the next visitors to the Etihad Stadium.

Harry Kane - £14.5m (away vs Newcastle)

He may have failed to score in his last two appearances but if Harry Kane could choose one defence to come up against this weekend it would likely be that of an injury hit Newcastle side. The young striker scored as Spurs hit 4 past the Magpies earlier in the season and with the visitors tipped score as a result of an individual error in WhoScored's match forecast, Kane should be on hand to pounce at the chance to score his 20th league goal of the season.
