Bonus gives Hazard the edge on Salah

Harry Kane (£12.8m) scored four goals on his last visit to Leicester City and he is backed to supply another big Fantasy Premier League score on his return to King Power Stadium in Gameweek 14.

He spearheads the attack as The Scout opts for a powerful five-man defence for the midweek matches.

Nick Pope (BUR) £4.6m

FPL's outstanding goalkeeper since his first start in Gameweek 5, Pope has supplied five clean sheets in that spell. Incredibly, he's also returned bonus points in six of nine Burnley starts ahead of a trip to AFC Bournemouth.

Charlie Daniels (BOU) £4.9m

In opposition to Pope at Vitality Stadium, Daniels heads into Gameweek 14 on the back of three successive clean sheets. If the Cherries are to find a way past Pope, the left-back may well be involved. He has supplied more crosses (30) and key passes (7) than any other team-mate in home matches.

Sead Kolasinac (ARS) £6.1m

The Bosnian is beginning to fulfil his promise as an FPL option, particularly at Emirates Stadium. Kolasinac has produced either a goal, assist or a clean sheet in five of his six home matches ahead of Huddersfield Town's visit.

Jan Vertonghen (TOT) £6.1m

No defence have allowed fewer big chances in away matches than Spurs and Vertonghen's opponents Leicester City have created only three big chances in Claude Puel's four matches as manager - only Huddersfield Town (one) have fewer.

Nicolas Otamendi (MCI) £5.8m

An own goal in Gameweek 13 produced a zero-point score but the Argentinian can bounce back against Southampton. Manchester City's defence have conceded fewer shots in home matches (36) than any other side.

Marcos Alonso (CHE) £6.9m

Scorer of six goals and five assists in 2016/17, it is Alonso's attacking threat that gets him the nod over team-mate Cesar Azpilicueta (£6.9m) for the visit of Swansea City. The left wing-back has fired more shots on goal (21) than any other FPL defender.

Mohamed Salah (LIV) £9.7m

An almost permanent fixture in our select XI, his goal against Chelsea in Gameweek 13 was his fifth in his last three outings. Salah struck a brace and 15 points in his last away match at West Ham United ahead of a trip to Stoke City.

Eden Hazard (CHE) £10.7m

Along with Salah, the Belgian has been the form FPL midfielder of recent Gameweeks. Playing in a No 10 role he has produced three goals and as many assists in his last five Chelsea appearances.

Leroy Sane (MCI) £9.0m

One assist in his last three outings is a dip in form but the German’s output at the Etihad Stadium ahead of a meeting with Southampton is difficult to ignore. He boasts four double-figure scores in his last five outings on home turf.

Pascal Gross (BHA) £6.0m

The Brighton & Hove Albion playmaker faces rivals Crystal Palace having averaged 7.7 points per home match. Gross has scored or assisted 75% of his side's goals at Amex Stadium.

Harry Kane (TOT) £12.8m

The Spurs forward visits Leicester City having scored six of his nine goals this season in away matches. Kane produced 31 points at King Power Stadium last season, the biggest individual score of 2016/17. He wears our armband for Gameweek 14.
