GK - Kepa Arrizabalaga (Chelsea)
Chelsea's poor form under caretaker manager Frank Lampard continued as they were beaten 2-1 at home to Brighton but Kepa came away from Stamford Bridge with some credit despite being on the losing side.
The Spain international kept the score down in West London making a whopping nine saves, but it was not enough as the Blues succumed to a third successive defeat in all competitions.
DEF - Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool)
Alexander-Arnold has been using his creative strengths to good effect in recent games having taken up some space in midfield and he looked his best as Liverpool thrashed relegation-threatened Leeds 6-1.
The right-back set up two of the Reds' six goals at Elland Road and was largely untroubled defensively throughout his evening.
DEF - Lewis Dunk (Brighton)
Brighton returned to the win column in impressive fashion as they produced a commanding display against faltering Chelsea.
Dunk was a key man in the Seagulls' victory and rebounded after Chelsea's lone goal deflected off him, leading his side well from central defence.
DEF - John Stones (Manchester City)
Stones appears to be thriving in a new-look role for City and he needed just 45 minutes to make his mark as he was withdrawn at half-time in their 3-1 win over Leicester.
Interchanging between central defence and midfield, Stones was resolute during his outing and broke the deadlock early on with a superb half-volley from the edge of the penalty area.
DEF - Alex Moreno (Aston Villa)
Spanish left-back Moreno seems to be thriving under Unai Emery and has very much been a key man since his arrival from Real Betis in January.
Moreno was an excellent option out wide for Villa in their impressive 3-0 win against Newcastle and tapped in with an assist for Ollie Watkins' first goal.
MID - Eberechi Eze (Crystal Palace)
Roy Hodgson is masterminding a rivival at Palace and Eze has been a key figure in the Eagles moving away from the threat of relegation.
The young midfielder scored twice for Palace as they downed bottom-placed Southampton 2-0, first volleying a superb effort arrowing in an effort from distance.
MID - Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United)
Fernandes was superb for United in their routine 2-0 win over strugglers Nottingham Forest as they strengthened their grip on a top four place.
The Portuguese was the visitors' creative force, setting up a whopping six chances for his teammates and was unfortunate to come away without a contribution - especially after being denied by a brilliant Keylor Navas save.
MID - Jacob Ramsey (Aston Villa)
Young Villa sensation Ramsey has emerged as one of the stars of the show under Emery and his form continued in the win over Newcastle.
The 21-year-old got things started for the hosts with a drilled effort before he set up in-form Watkins to add some breathing room to the scoreline.
Watkins has now tallied 11 goals three assists since the turn of the year, with no player in the Premier League recording more.
FWD - Dominic Solanke (Bournemouth)
Bournemouth talisman Solanke had a big hand in their stunning 3-2 victory at Tottenham which has given the Cherries some much needed breathing room between themselves and the drop zone.
It was the third time this season that Solanke registered a goal and an assist in the same game, firstly teeing up Matias Vina for Bournemouth's opener and then scoring himself with a delicate lifted finish.
But crucially, he picked out Dango Ouattara on the counter attack, who then went on to slot home impressively to give the visitors all three points in second half stoppage time.
FWD - Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa)
The aforementioned Watkins is currently one of the top performers in the Premier League at present and his scoring form continued against Newcastle.
The striker had a big influence on proceedings at Villa Park, nodding down for Ramsey's opener before scoring twice to help Emery's side record a fifth consecutive victory.
FWD - Diogo Jota (Liverpool)
Very little appeared to be going right for Jota early on against Leeds, but he managed to turn things around in a second-half blitz.
After teeing up Mohamed Salah's first-half opener, Jota finally ended his barren goal drought by opening his Premier League account for the season before scoring again in the rout.
