UPDATED: 07:11 EST, 19 April 2013 With only five matches to get, the Premier League pressure cooker is hitting maximum temperature, with outstanding problems at the bottom and top of the table set to be resolved. And as activities become more and more frenetic, referees may find themselves under ever greater pressure to indicate the penalty spot every time a person drops down in the box. The duty of hope will likely then move to the nominated taker to make the most of the wonderful chance - but who has been the calmest up to now this season? Well, based on the Opta stats, it's Fulham who are the steeliest, with all six fines modified. Unnerved: Fulham have a 100 percent transformation rate from their six charges in the Premier League this season, with Dimitar Berbatov rating four of them, including this one against Arsenal Source: Opta Of these, Dimitar Berbatov has demonstrated faultless while Steve Sidwell and Mladen Petric also netted earlier in the season, when placed on the spot, transforming against West Brom, Arsenal, Sunderland and Queens Park Rangers. With activities against Arsenal and Everton still in the future, Fulham would have a big state on the Champions League battle - specially if awarded a punishment. Chelsea have been awarded the most this season - seven - and have taken advantage on seven occasions. Area on... Joe Lampard scores certainly one of Chelsea's nine Premier League fines this season, against Arsenal at Stamford Bridge ...and off: But Lampard found his spot-kick at Manchester City wonderfully saved by Joe Hart When Frank Lampard won to put Chelsea 2-0 facing Wigan as soon as the second, the Blues gained from a spot-kick on the initial week-end of the season. They then had two charges in their next two games, helping towards a strong start to the plan under Roberto Di Matteo, but then had to attend until Christmas. The absolute most significant in the context of the summer season was Lampard's against Arsenal, a goal which demonstrated the fit champion in a gain at Stamford Bridge, nevertheless the England midfielder was also guilty of wasting an essential one at Manchester City monthly later. By comparison, Swansea and Tottenham still have not been given a fee this season, while Norwich missed their just one, when Southampton's Artur Boruc significantly saved from Grant Holt in stoppage time last month. Perhaps Gareth Bale's occasional simulation in the package has counted against Spurs. Not convinced: Sunderland's Craig Gardner remonstrates with Gareth Bale after he comes quickly in the box - Spurs have not been granted a category fee this season Champions-elect Manchester United, probably surprisingly, have modified only half their six penalties. A24m person Robin van Persie was when his tried Panenka went awry against Southampton on the second weekend of the season, while Javier Hernandez missed against Wigan at fault and Wayne Rooney dragged one vast against Arsenal. Large of the mark: Wayne Rooney spent this penalty against Arsenal at Old Trafford In different contests, Nani failed to change against Galatasaray and Rooney again failed against West Ham in an FA Cup replay. West Ham and Sunderland have 100 percent documents (four from four), while Aston Villa, Reading, Southampton, Everton and Wigan have yet to feel any penalty pain in the category in 2013.
