Eden Hazard (£10.6m) takes his place alongside Chelsea team-mate Alvaro Morata (£10.2m) as The Scout reverts to an attacking 3-4-3 for Gameweek 9.
Joe Hart (WHU) £4.4m
Fresh from a nine-point return at Burnley in Gameweek 8, the Hammers stopper earns a place in our XI ahead of Brighton & Hove Albion's visit. Hart and his defence have kept four clean sheets from their last six in all competitions.
Nicolas Otamendi (MCI) £5.7m
The Argentinian has been the major threat from Manchester City set-plays, recording 11 shots - second only to Marcos Alonso (£7.0m and 14) among FPL defenders. He now faces a Burnley backline that has conceded the most attempts from set-pieces (44), with only two teams allowing more headed shots (23).
Phil Jones (MUN) £5.3m
Omitted from the starting line-up for Wednesday's UEFA Champions League tie, the centre-back will be expected to return to start at Huddersfield Town. He has marshalled the Manchester United defence to seven clean sheets in eight Gameweeks and faces a Terriers attack with only a single goal in their last six.
Virgil van Dijk (SOU) £5.4m
No defender has won more aerial duels (19) or recorded more shots in the penalty area (four) than the Dutchman since his return in Gameweek 7. He faces a West Bromwich Albion side who have recorded only 15 shots in the penalty area in away matches - only Swansea City have registered fewer.
Eden Hazard (CHE) £10.6m
Last season's leading scorer among FPL midfielders in home matches with 12 goals, the Belgian signposted a return to form with a brace in midweek. His goals against Roma in the UEFA Champions League were from a No 10 position and his link with Alvaro Morata (£10.2m) will be the key threat to visitors Watford on Saturday.
Raheem Sterling (MCI) £8.1m
More than 300,000 managers have swooped for the winger heading into Friday's 19:00 BST deadline after his six goals in as many Gameweeks. Sterling also boasts a goal in each of his last five home appearances ahead of the visit of a Burnley side who have conceded a season-high 155 shots.
Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (STK) £5.6m
The Cameroonian has fired 13 shots in the penalty area in home matches this season, a tally bettered only by Romelu Lukaku (£11.8m and 15) and Harry Kane (£12.8m and 18). Choupo-Moting will carry the threat to an AFC Bournemouth side without a point or clean sheet on their travels.
Michail Antonio (WHU) £7.5m
The Hammers winger faces Brighton & Hove Albion on the back of his goal and four shots on target at Burnley – more than any player in Gameweek 8.
Alvaro Morata (CHE) £10.2m
The Spaniard is set to return to Chelsea's Premier League starting line-up to face Watford, boasting six goals and two assists from his seven Gameweek appearances. Morata has been involved – scored or assisted – in 73% of Chelsea's goals when on the pitch.
Romelu Lukaku (MUN) £11.8m
The seven-goal Belgian remains in 57.6% of FPL squads and will go to Huddersfield Town bidding to rediscover his scoring touch following the 0-0 stalemate with Liverpool. Lukaku had scored in each of his three away matches until then and is backed with our Gameweek captaincy.
Tammy Abraham (SWA) £5.7m
With three goals in his last two home appearances the Chelsea loanee faces Leicester City in fine form. Abraham has scored or assisted 80% of the Swansea's goals heading into the meeting with a Foxes defence that has allowed 24 shots on target in away matches – only two sides (Liverpool 26 and Crystal Palace 31) have conceded more.
