The Brighton & Hove Albion winger visits Leicester City on the back of just one blank in his last six outings.

Mitoma has scored three goals and supplied two assists in that run to total 36 points.

He is picked in a best XI that lines up in a 3-4-3 formation, with Erling Haaland (£12.2m) handed the armband and Harry Kane (£11.7m) named vice-captain.

Ederson (MCI) £5.4m

The goalkeeper offers a secure route into Manchester City's backline at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers. Ederson kept a clean sheet and collected six points in the reverse fixture at Molineux in Gameweek 8.

Kieran Trippier (NEW) £6.0m

Newcastle United’s right-back offers multiple routes to returns against Crystal Palace. Trippier has delivered returns in seven successive outings, amassing 67 points thanks to three assists, seven clean sheets and 18 bonus points.

Serge Aurier (NFO) £4.5m

The Nottingham Forest full-back has blanked only three times and collected 48 points in his last nine appearances. Aurier faces an AFC Bournemouth side who have failed to score in all four of their matches since domestic action resumed.

Ben Mee (BRE) £4.7m

Brentford's centre-back boasts strong potential at both ends of the pitch against Leeds United. Mee has combined two goals and an assist with six clean sheets this season.

Kevin De Bruyne (MCI) £12.5m

The Belgian's prolific record against Wolves suggests he could outscore Haaland. De Bruyne has four goals, two assists and 34 points in his last two meetings with them.

Marcus Rashford (MUN) £7.1m

The England star has been Manchester United's standout player since the resumption of domestic action, scoring in seven of their eight matches in all competitions. Rashford delivered his season-high haul of 18 points against Arsenal in Gameweek 6, thanks to two goals and an assist.

Martin Odegaard (ARS) £6.8m

Arsenal's playmaker has soared to the top of the midfield standings on the back of eight goals and five assists. The absence of Casemiro (£4.9m) for Man Utd through suspension could prove decisive for the Gunners, further lifting Odegaard’s chances of more returns.

Kaoru Mitoma (BHA) £5.0m

His 10 shots in the box and five big chances both place second among midfielders over the last four Gameweeks.

Erling Haaland (MCI) £12.2m

An ownership of 85 per cent means Man City's forward will retain his role as the runaway captain favourite. Haaland hosts a Wolves side who have managed a single clean sheet on their travels this term.

Harry Kane (TOT) £11.7m

Tottenham Hotspur's talisman scored and earned nine points against Fulham in Gameweek 6. Kane has three goals and 20 points in his three meetings with promoted sides this season ahead of Monday's trip to face the Cottagers.

Ivan Toney (BRE) £7.6m

The Brentford forward is the most-bought player in the Gameweek, brought in by 440,000+ managers. Toney has been involved in 16 goals this season, scoring 13 and assisting three, just one short of his combined total of 17 goal involvements in 2021/22.
