P4 W2 D1 L1 G4 A1

The in-form Brazilian scored in three of his four March matches, including a brace in a 3-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur and a sensational stoppage-time scissor-kick goal to rescue a point at Sheffield United. Only Isak matched his four goals in the month. 

Cole Palmer (Chelsea)
P3 W1 D2 L0 G3 A2

The 21-year-old scored three goals and assisted a further two as Chelsea went unbeaten through March. He assisted a late equaliser at Brentford, scored and set up a goal in a 3-2 win over Newcastle, and netted both goals in a draw with Burnley. He also created 10 chances in March.

Antoine Semenyo (Bournemouth)
P4 W3 D1 L0 G3 A0

Semenyo was pivotal as AFC Bournemouth went unbeaten through four March matches. The Ghanaian winger scored in a 2-0 win at Burnley but his most influential performance came against Luton Town, scoring his team's third and fourth goals in a 4-3 turnaround win from 3-0 down.

Son Heung-min (Spurs)
P4 W3 D0 L1 G3 A2

Son's five goal involvements were the joint-most in March. He found the net in a home win over Crystal Palace, scored a late winner against Luton, and got a goal and two assists as Spurs won 4-0 at top-four rivals Aston Villa. 

Ben White (Arsenal)
P3 W2 D1 L0 G1 A2 CS2

The right-back was important at both ends in March for Arsenal, who conceded only one goal in three matches, including a goalless draw at title rivals Man City, whom they limited to only one shot on target. White scored in a victory at Sheffield United before setting up a late winner at home to Brentford that sent Arsenal top for the first time since Boxing Day.
