Coral’s Premier League team of matchweek 26: Midfield goals galore

Another weekend of awesome Premier League action has passed us by, but here at Coral we like to recognise the contributions made by players who have helped win points.

And what do points makes? Prizes! Title triumphs, European football for next season and safety from relegation. Our football experts have got their heads together and picked the latest team of the week! Who makes it in? Read on to discover!

Goalkeeper: Simon Mignolet
A rare clean sheet for Reds stopper Mignolet against a European rival in Southampton gets him the nod. Liverpool are now 15/8 chances to crash the top four.

Right back: Branislav Ivanovic
Chelsea’s Serbian defender struck for the fourth time in six matches in a home draw with Burnley, and is becoming as prolific as some of the great goal-getters up from the back.

Centre back: Dejan Lovren
Shutting out the Saints to secure a win for Brendan Rodgers on the south coast had even more significance for Croatia centre back Lovren, as it came against his former club.

Centre back: Martin Skrtel
That Liverpool presence continues in defence with Slovakia’s Skrtel, who shackled Southampton striker Graziano Pelle superbly.

Left back: Ben Mee
Netting an equaliser at Stamford Bridge was Mee, a youth product of Manchester City. In Clarets colours, he has handed his old club a lifeline in the title race by pinching a point for Sean Dyche off Chelsea.

Defensive midfield: Ki Sung-Yueng
Swansesa City doing the double over Manchester United came in no small part thanks to South Korea skipper Ki. He scored both home and away against the Red Devils this season.
