Nick Pope, Newcastle, keeper, £5m – home to Leicester City

Newcastle have let in seven in their past two games – but hear me out!

Pope has made 54 saves this season at a rate of more than three per game, so you are almost guaranteed a save point.

And Newcastle should dominate possession against Leicester – it’s not hard to imagine a home win to nil.

Jurrien Timber, Arsenal, £5.7m – home to Everton

It feels like Arsenal have the best chance of any team of grabbing a clean sheet this week but which defensive asset to pick?

Mikel Arteta’s squad is riddled with injuries and the obvious choice Gabriel might not play.

William Saliba is more expensive than Timber and, despite two goals in two games, his expected goals (xG) tally was zero before that, in 13 games. ZERO! Not even one shot in 13 games.

So go with Timber who is more involved offensively and also a threat from Arsenal’s famous corners.

Pervis Estupinan, Brighton, £5.1m – home to Crystal Palace

The Ecuadorian got his first assist of the season last week and his data is encouraging – three shots and two key passes from a left-back.

Estupinan has always possessed a decent attacking threat and you’ve got to hope that Brighton can keep a clean sheet too.

Milos Kerkez, Bournemouth, £4.6m – home to West Ham

The Hungarian passes the stats test and the eye test.

If you’ve watched any Bournemouth games recently, you’ll have seen him flying down that left wing and getting into all sorts of attacking positions.

He leads Bournemouth defenders in every statistic – key passes (15), big chances created (four), assists (two), touches in the box (26)… we could go on.

In the past five weeks, only Ipswich’s Leif Davis has a higher expected assists (xA) total.
