City's fixtures are also favourable, Palace are 17th for big chances conceded, 15th for shots conceded, and 17th for xGA.
Aston Villa are better, with 3rd, 7th, and 9th, for the same statistics, but you would still expect De Bruyne to get something out of that game.

Salah is out of form, but capable of hauling, he would be my second choice for captaincy, and first choice for those who don't own De Bruyne.
Fernandes is also a good pick, however the fact that he is one yellow card away from a suspension diverts his likelihood of the armband.
