Watford's Troy Deeney (£7.1m) retains his place in the Scout Selection and is joined by team-mate Jose Holebas (£4.7m), as we back the pair against visitors Hull City in Gameweek 10.

Deeney could not deliver at Swansea City last time out but has provided 15 points in his previous two Vicarage Road outings.

Meanwhile, Holebas is relishing his role at left wing-back, pouring forward to claim two goals and an assist so far.

The Greek is now pivotal at set plays and has returned 27 points in the last three Gameweeks, including two successive clean sheets.

Holebas lines up in a three-man back line alongside Arsenal's Hector Bellerin (£6.6m) and Manchester United's Daley Blind (£5.7m).

Both provide the prospect of attacking points to supplement clean sheets.

Bellerin's pace down the Gunners' right flank could be vital should Theo Walcott (£8.1m) miss out at Sunderland, while Blind has created more chances than any other defender in the last three Gameweeks.

The Dutchman's craft from dead-balls could be vital if United are to break Burnley's resistance at Old Trafford.

We again turn to Stoke City's Lee Grant (£4.1m) in goal, earning his third successive call-up to the Selection XI.

He's delivered two consecutive clean sheets and provides exceptional value ahead of Monday night's bet365 Stadium meeting with Swansea City.

With the midfield proving a points powerhouse this season, we've packed it out with expensive talent once again. 

Walcott's injury meant we had to look to Alexis Sanchez (£11.3m) to cover Arsenal's potential at the Stadium of Light.

The Chilean has bullied both Watford and Hull City on the road this season, returning 26 points in those two away trips. We're backing him to deal the damage to David Moyes' ailing defence in Saturday's early kick-off.

No selection would be complete without a Liverpool option in midfield.

Philippe Coutinho (£8.4m) gets the nod this time around, buoyant ahead of a trip to Crystal Palace after a 10-point return in the 2-1 Gameweek 9 victory over West Bromwich Albion.

Tottenham Hotspur's Dele Alli (£8.2m) also seals a midfield berth for his home meeting with champions Leicester City, despite a blank at AFC Bournemouth last time out; Alli notched back-to-back goals prior to Gameweek 9.

We're also turning to a resurgent Eden Hazard (£9.8m) for Chelsea’s trip to Southampton. With goals in his last two Premier League outings, Antonio Conte will look to the Belgian to unlock a robust Saints rearguard.

Everton's Yannick Bolasie (£6.0m) completes the midfield. The summer signing scored his first Toffees goal last weekend and has combined with Romelu Lukaku (£9.7m) for four strikes since arriving on Merseyside: the most potent pairing in the Premier League.

Lukaku was a shoo-in for this weekend. He has claimed six goals in as many Gameweeks and has notched in all six of his previous Premier League outings against West Ham United; the Belgian is our Gameweek 10 captain.
