Sky Sports and Budweiser, the King of Beers, have teamed up to bring you the weekly Power Rankings.
Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah is this year's Christmas No 1 in the form chart, powering into top spot after netting a double and providing an assist in his dazzling 33-minute cameo in the 7-0 win over Crystal Palace.
Team-mate Roberto Firmino also scored two stunning goals and notched an assist in the rout to edge into No 3 spot, with captain Jordan Henderson (No 12) narrowly missing out on the top 10 after getting on the scoresheet.
Manchester United stars rallied, with Scott McTominay (No 4) joining Marcus Rashford (No 2), Bruno Fernandes (No 6) and Victor Lindelof (No 9) among the elite after the Scot scored twice in three minutes during a 6-2 win over rivals Leeds.
Aston Villa capitalised on a one-man advantage to impose complete dominance in a 3-0 win against West Brom, with captain Jack Grealish (No 5) pulling the strings again and summer signing Bertrand Traore (No 8) scoring and assisting.
Meanwhile, Burnley stopper Nick Pope (No 7) retained his top-10 standing and Leeds midfielder Stuart Dallas (No 10) bucked his side's weekend form in the rankings after netting a consolation from range at Old Trafford.
There were nine new table-toppers in the clubs' respective form charts, including Dani Ceballos (Arsenal), Solly March (Brighton), Thiago Silva (Chelsea), Dallas, Callum Wilson (Newcastle), Jannik Vestergaard (Southampton), Harry Kane (Tottenham), Sam Johnstone (West Brom) and Daniel Podence (Wolves).
Sky Sports and Budweiser, official partner of the Premier League and King of Beers, have joined forces to bring you the Kings of the Premier League show.
On the back of its resounding success last season, the debate returns to your screens on the first Friday of every month on Sky Sports Premier League.
Sky Sports presenter Adam Smith and two guests will build an ultimate XI from the top-performing players over the past month, pitting stats against gut as they compare data-driven form charts with Kings of the Match fan votes.
"This show really is the perfect way to pick the team of the month," according to Smithy. "It's never easy picking a dream XI, so let the debate commence."
The show's best bits will play out across Sky Sports' YouTube and the partnership will also deliver the weekly Power Ranking articles every Tuesday on the Sky Sports website and apps.
The fourth episode will air on Friday, January 8, with repeats on-demand. Do the Premier League's statistical leaders make the cut in this month's XI, or do the fans' favourites earn starting berths? Tune in to Sky Sports Premier League to find out...
