Adama Traore takes Sadio Mane's place in Premier League form XI

 

Liverpool extended their lead at the top of the Premier League to 11 points after Leicester could only draw 1-1 with relegation strugglers Norwich. Liverpool have now kept successive clean sheets in the Premier League for the first time this season, allowing Virgil Van Dijk to keep his place in our form XI.

 

In order to qualify for the XI, players must have featured in at least two of their club's last three league matches and six of their last eight. Overall, there are wholesale changes to the XI, as five players come into the side, as we will now reveal.

 

Goalkeeper: Vicente Guaita (Crystal Palace) - 7.40 weighted rating

 

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Vicente Guaita replaces Newcastle shot-stopper Martin Dubravka in the team. Guaita has earned a WhoScored rating in excess of 7.00 in each of his last four appearances and was the WhoScored Man of the Match in Monday's 1-1 draw at home to Brighton. He has kept three clean sheets in his last four appearances.

 

Centre-back: James Tarkowski (Burnley) - 7.35 weighted rating

 

Burnley brought an end to Newcastle's good run of form with a 1-0 win on Saturday and centre-back James Tarkowski enters the form XI at the expense of Leicester's Jonny Evans. Tarkowski was the WhoScored Man of the Match at the weekend and has now picked up the star man award in two of his last eight outings. He has played a direct hand in two goals in that time (one goal, one assist).

 

Right wing: Adama Traore (Wolves) - 8.16 weighted rating

 

Adama Traore replaces Sadio Mane on the right wing in our Premier League form XI after another explosive performance for Wolves at the weekend. Wolves eventually fell to defeat to Tottenham but were hugely impressive. Traore scored his first league goal since October and averages more than 6 succesful dribbles per game (6.1) over Wolves' last eight league games.

 

Central midfield: Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) - 7.97 weighted rating

 

Kevin De Bruyne scored twice and was denied his hat-trick against Arsenal by a sensational Bernd Leno save, as the Manchester City star takes Dele Alli's place in our form XI. De Bruyne has scored four goals in his last five league matches and has picked up the WhoScored Man of the Match award twice in that time.

Striker: Harry Kane (Tottenham) - 7.85 weighted rating

 

Harry Kane replaces Wolves striker Raul Jimenez to complete the changes in our Premier League form XI. The Tottenham striker didn't net against Wolves on Saturday but has scored four goals and provided one assist in his last five outings. He also earned a perfect WhoScored 10 rating in his second most recent league outing.
