Which Top 3 Gunners Picks to Pick v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Week

One big decision in this FPL team of the gameweek is to select zero City assets - and yes, that includes Haaland!

The funds is required to load up on Arsenal players as they welcome one of the worst sides in Premier League history.

It's true, Manchester City scored in five goals on their most recent away trip, but now they face Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defensive record in the league for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the sort of encounter you must target - the leading side in the division against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.

This squad of the gameweek is selected based on current FPL prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Team Do?

The captain didn't deliver but big points from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a massive eighty-three points. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)

The first derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those tight matches that is all drama but minimal goalmouth action.

A scenario that would make Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid shout.

Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a must this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored on the road so far and one in their past six matches.

Ben White is a fantastic offensive threat when he is given his chance. He started the past two games at right-back, had a 14-point return against the Bees and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 key passes, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (h)

Everton are unpredictable so this selection is more about the Blues'defensive solidity and the Spaniard's upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-best defence while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any defender in the league.

And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five goals the previous campaign.

Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)

You shouldn't have great expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the last two games.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the past three fixtures.

In those matches he's had 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolverhampton on Monday as well.

Midfielders

Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too juicy to ignore and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenaltop attacking player essential.

Little statistical analysis needed to support this pick. United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted 4 and could have had double that.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

Just a single point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is incredibly consistent for Arsenal.

With more license to attack this season, he's created more opportunities than any other Arsenal player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for game time as the manager might view this as a chance to rotate his squad.

Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (home)

The Portuguese playmaker might have replaced Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with several ways to points.

Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This week's punt, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we are aware what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.

You sense that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.

He missed ChelseaEuropean loss at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for Everton.

Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds United (h)

Leeds enter this game off the back of two great home performances against Chelsea and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three times for every one they've scored.

This is likely the winger's final match before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He has been excellent for Brentford this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his past three home matches.

Strikers

Igor Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)

It's been a disappointing couple of weeks for the striker FPL managers, with only 3 points in two matches.

However, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has 7 strikes in 7 fixtures at home. He is the prime striker choice for this round and, with a favourable fixture list, you can set and forget until the January window at the very least.

Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)

It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds.

He performed strongly at the start of the season and you wonder what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

The Bench
