Fantasy executives are split on who will make the biggest contribution to an attractive set of fixtures.
The Premier League's top scorer Holland delighted his supporters with a goal in Saturday's opening game as they look to take two bonus points away to 14th-placed Crystal Palace.
Palmer, meanwhile, has amassed 48 points in his last three matches and now visits bottom club Sheffield United.
Salah faces an injury-ravaged Manchester United defense that conceded four goals against Chelsea in midweek, and Son is at home against 17th-placed Nottingham Forest.
Interestingly, even though Salah is the third-favourite captain choice among the public, he is the top choice among the elite group of managers fighting for the world No.1 spot.
