Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Cristian Stuani were the joint top scorers in the second Sky Sports Fantasy Football team of the week after bagging braces at the weekend.
The pair starred in respective wins for Manchester United and Middlesbrough against Southampton and Sunderland, while picking up additional five points apiece for Sky Sports Man-of-the-Match awards.
However, Sergio Aguero, who also struck twice, fails to make the line-up due to John Stones being handed the MOTM award in Manchester City’s 4-1 thumping of Stoke.
Here’s who has made the top scoring XI…
Tom Heaton (£5.8m)
Burnley record the upset of the weekend thanks to a defensive masterclass against Liverpool, beating Jurgen Klopp’s men despite having less than 20 per cent of possession. Heaton secured additional bonus for making five saves but the quality of his side’s work meant they were all relatively comfortable.
Kyle Walker (9.5m)
Tottenham recorded a solid if somewhat unspectacular 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace, with Walker part of a backline which looked more like the one that led Spurs into last season’s title race rather than the one that crumbled at the business end of it.
Laurent Koscielny (£10.3m)
While Arsenal fans grumble over the lack of defensive reinforcements, the return of Koscielny was enough to tighten up their backline, helping secure a 0-0 draw at Leicester.
Curtis Davies (£6.5m)
Hull are unlikely to have much sympathy for Arsenal’s problems, but continued to defy the odds on Saturday, recording a 2-0 victory at the Liberty Stadium after restricting the largely dominant Swans.
Shaun Maloney (£6.7m)
The Tigers’ defence may have provided the platform but it was substitute Maloney who delivered the victory, scoring one in the 79th-minute and setting up another in extra-time for a classic smash-and-grab win.
Michail Antonio (£8.9m)
West Ham also left it late to secure the points this weekend, scoring with what was only one of two efforts on target against Bournemouth in their new stadium.
Gareth Barry (£7.8m)
Everton didn’t leave it quite as late but they did have to come from behind, with Barry completing the comeback after Kevin Mirallas cancelled out Gareth McAuley’s opener.
Etienne Capoue (£7.8m)
Watford suffered contrasting fortunes as they let a lead slip against Chelsea but Capoue was still rewarded with the MOTM award for his stunning opener. The strike also represented two goals in as many appearances this season for a defensive midfielder who failed to net in 33 starts in the previous campaign.
Andre Gray (£10.1m)
Gray’s 25 goals and nine assists from last season has seen him listed among Sky Sports Fantasy Football’s most popular strikers and he rewarded the faith on Saturday, setting one up and then scoring another in the Clarets’ shock win over Liverpool.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic (£12.2m)
Only Aguero and Dimitri Payet were selected more than Ibrahimovic before the season started and the 34-year-old has immediately proved his worth, stealing the headlines from Paul Pogba’s debut with a brace in the season’s first Friday Night Football.
Cristian Stuani (£7m)
However, the Swede’s impressive tally was not unmatched, with far more modestly priced Stuani starring on Super Sunday with two contrasting efforts, firing in from range to open the scoring before tapping in Alvaro Negredo’s selfless pass.
