Coral’s PL team of matchweek 34: Hull heroics and Everton entertainment

It was another fascinating Premier League matchweek, with sensational strikes and shocks galore, as the top four chase and relegation dogfight took on yet more twists and turns. So, without further ado, Coral experts bring you our superb starting XI of the Premier League’s top performers.

See who made the grade below:

Formation 4-4-2

Goalkeeper: Boaz Myhill (West Bromwich Albion)
Kasper Schmeichel pulled out the stops yet again for Leicester City, but Albion stand-in stopper Myhill gets top billing in our starting XI this marvellous matchweek. The California-born custodian not only kept a clean against Liverpool, but did so in style, with a superb double save to deny both Philippe Coutinho and Jordan Henderson.

Right back: Craig Dawson (West Bromwich Albion)
The Baggies also impressed in the right back berth, with Dawson keeping Reds wing wizard Raheem Sterling quiet on the flank, despite fullback not being the 24-year-old’s natural position.

Centre back: John Stones (Everton)
Young Stones continues to surpass his Toffees rearguard peers this term, and put in an accomplished and composed performance beyond his years against Manchester United. The Barnsley-born centre half also proved to be a set piece star in the opposition’s box, bagging his first Everton goal.

Centre back: John Terry (Chelsea)
We move on from England’s bright future with Stones, to one of the Three Lions’ finest former centre backs in Terry, who takes the lead in our backline. Chelsea’s captain fantastic was a solid and authoritative presence to help the Blues build from the back, as well a shut out the Gunners. Jose Mourinho’s men are now 2/1 with Coral to win the title at home against Liverpool.

Left back: Leighton Baines (Everton)
Baines exploited the Red Devils’ attacking intent on the counter expertly and easily nullified nimble Juan Mata. The flying fullback also provided a cracking corner to set-up Stones’ set piece header, helping to put the Toffees 2-0 up.
