Son Heung-Min

With Liverpool at Manchester City on Sunday, two teams full of captaincy options become much less appealing and Tottenham's trip to West Bromwich Albion will be where the majority of armbands go.

Kane or Son? It's a tough call with no definite answer. Kane has penalties, Son has a greater range of potential points and has performed well on the road recently. If you don't have either, get Son but both feel necessary this week.

Ben Chilwell

For those managers still hanging onto Trent Alexander-Arnold, it is becoming difficult to ignore the points that Chilwell is offering as part of an improving Chelsea defence.

With five straight clean sheets in all competitions, Frank Lampard's side now welcome notoriously low-scoring Sheffield United to Stamford Bridge and Chilwell has the potential to profit in attack too.

Pablo Fornals

After a long run of fixtures against opponents expected to finish in the top-half, West Ham's fixtures finally begin to ease with Saturday's home meeting against Fulham.

Michail Antonio's injury is a blow but there are other options in attack. Jarrod Bowen is one but we like Pablo Fornals, who offers goal and assist potential with strong underlying numbers and a low ownership.

Jack Grealish

Quickly emerging into a must-have, Grealish's shot production has been exceptional this season and last week's haul against Southampton proved he can still deliver points in a defeat.

A trip to the Emirates may not be the most enticing fixture for Aston Villa but Grealish has the potential to score points in any game and enjoys a favourable schedule up until the new year.

Timo Werner

Many managers had their fingers burned by Werner at the start of the season and Lampard's tendency to play him out of position on the wing remains a concern but the goals are certainly starting to come.

Werner has three in his last three league games and though Sheffield United appear to be gradually recovering from their early season wobble, their defence is not what it once was.

Honourable mentions: Alex McCarthy, Vladimir Coufal, Tariq Lamptey, Jarrod Bowen, Callum Wilson
