He has amassed 78 points this season, at least 24 more than any of his defensive team-mates.

The Brazilian is included in a side that lines up in a 3-4-3 formation, with Erling Haaland (£12.2m) handed the armband and Bukayo Saka (£8.3m) named vice-captain.

Last week's Scout Selection earned an incredible 104 points without the use of a single chip, so make sure you keep checking out The Scout's picks every Gameweek!

Ederson (MCI) £5.4m
The goalkeeper is the only player to start all 21 of Man City's league matches this season.

Kieran Trippier (NEW) £6.1m
Newcastle United's right-back visits AFC Bournemouth in prolific away form in Fantasy. Trippier has 40 points across his last four road trips, combining four clean sheets with two assists and 11 bonus points.

Luke Shaw (MUN) £5.3m
Manchester United's left-back offers strong all-round potential at Leeds United. Shaw has produced a goal, an assist, three clean sheets and eight bonus since the season resumed, averaging 5.3 points per match.

Gabriel (ARS) £5.2m
The centre-back boasts the greatest goal threat of any Arsenal defender for their home matches with Brentford and Man City. Gabriel's 13 shots in the box are more than the combined total of 11 of the rest of their first-choice back four. 

Bukayo Saka (ARS) £8.3m
Arsenal's star has been a major influence on their recent home matches. Saka has amassed 40 points in his last five at Emirates Stadium, scoring four goals and supplying an assist.

Riyad Mahrez (MCI) £7.7m
The winger was Man City's top performer in Double Gameweek 20, producing 19 points. Mahrez has scored three of his four goals this season and supplied four of his five assists in his seven appearances since the season resumed.

Marcus Rashford (MUN) £7.2m
Two goals and an assist in Man Utd's Double Gameweek 22 have taken Rashford to the top of the midfield standings on 128 points, more than double his total of 63 points from 2021/22 Fantasy. He visits Leeds having recorded a single blank in his last eight appearances.

Kaoru Mitoma (BHA) £5.2m
The Brighton & Hove Albion winger is the most-bought player in the Gameweek, earning 296,000 transfers in for his trip to Crystal Palace. Mitoma has four goals, an assist and six bonus in his last six matches, totalling 44 points.

Erling Haaland (MCI) £12.2m
Man City's Norwegian has averaged a goal every 65 minutes on his way to the top of the player standings in Fantasy. Owned by a massive 85 per cent, Haaland offers managers a strong Triple Captain pick against Villa and Arsenal. 

Harry Kane (TOT) £11.7m
visit to Leicester City gives the Tottenham Hotspur talisman the chance to get more returns. Kane averages 9.0 points per match in his meetings with the Foxes, more than any other opponent, thanks to 17 goals and four assists in his 14 outings.

Eddie Nketiah (ARS) £6.8m
The Arsenal forward hosts Brentford and Man City on the back of a 13-point haul in the 3-2 win against Manchester United in his last home outing. Nketiah's 21 shots, 20 shots in the box, seven big chances and 10 shots on target all rank top for the Gunners since the season resumed.
