Defence

Man. City, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man. Utd have excellent clean sheet probabilities as per our Fix Algorithm this week which makes the Algorithm XI go big at the back with Cancelo, Dias, R. James, Alonso, Alexander-Arnold and De Gea. No defender has taken more shots (seven) than Cancelo over the last four gameweeks while Alexander-Arnold is not too far behind with six. The Liverpool right-back is also top for chances created (12).

Man. Utd's opponents Norwich have created only five 'big chances' over the last four gameweeks, only Everton (four), Wolves (two) and Burnley (one) have managed fewer, so De Gea's chances of a clean sheet look pretty good.

Midfield

Salah is the highest projected scorer as per our Fix Algorithm for gameweek 16 and he is also the most popular captain for our Elite XI. The Liverpool duo of Salah and Jota are joint-top for shots (15) amongst midfielders over the last four gameweeks.

Chelsea are projected to score well (2.1) this week and Mount is one of the most nailed on attackers for the London side. Saka faces a Southampton side who are likely to be without their two first choice goalkeepers.

Forwards

As the Stats Sandbox image above shows, Ronaldo is top amongst forwards for shots (15) and shots on target (six) over the last four gameweeks. He is likely to be on penalty duties as well, having taken one against Arsenal in gameweek 14.
