Why has Premier League seen influx of holding and grappling at set-pieces - can anything be done to stop it?

The statistics show that up to match round 28 last season, four penalties had been awarded for holding at set pieces compared to seven at the same stage this season. If you include the number of penalties given for holding offences in open play (when a cross comes into the box), there has been a total increase from nine penalties by this stage last season to 12 penalties so far this campaign.
