Gareth Bale either does excellently (114, 78, 74 & 70 points) or decidedly average (52, 46, 39, 36 & 35). Compare this with Assou-Ekotto's string of results (78, 67, 67, 65, 63, 62, 57, 56, 29, 9) which are much more consistent. So it boils down to whether Bale will score or not. Think he will? Then pick him. Think he won't? Then there'll be several other players out-pointing him.
Kaboul (81, 63, 58, 39 & 36) and Gallas (71, 51, 43, 42, 39, 35) have been 2 of the 3 highest points scorers for Spurs in the last two games. I would take Kaboul over Gallas, just, based on his slightly more impressive record but I can't see both centre-backs dominating for a third game in a row.
With van der Vaart out it'll fall to Modric to provide much of the creative spark and he should deliver around 60 points barring injury, cards or substitution.
Spurs tips: Assou-Ekotto & Modric are safe bets. Then Bale, Kaboul, Gallas and possibly Hutton are worth considering.
Gerrard is out of today's game, as he was for the last Picklive game against West Ham when Meireles (94), Rodriguez (94), Johnson (85), Konchesky (73) and Skrtel (61) were the top 5. I fancy those five to be there or thereabouts again, especially Meireles and Konchesky who have the highest average after Gerrard. Poulson and Lucas should also be considered. Lucas ranges 52-74 when he's playing for most of the match and not getting himself sent off. Pouslon is steady and dependable.
Liverpool tips: Pick from the top 5 last time out plus Lucas and Poulson.
My team: Assou-Ekotto, Modric, Kaboul, Konchesky & Lucas
Good luck!
