Which Top 3 Arsenal Players to Pick v Wolverhampton? FPL Team of the Gameweek

One major move in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week is to opt for zero Manchester City assets - and yes, even Haaland!

Our budget are essential to invest heavily on Arsenal players as they host one of the poorest teams in English top-flight history.

Yes, Manchester City scored in 5 times on their most recent away fixture, but now they meet Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals conceded and fourth-best in terms of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the type of encounter you must attack - the leading side in the league against one lacking of momentum, technical ability and self-belief.

The lineup of the gameweek is chosen using current FPL prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.

Performance of Last Week's Squad Perform?

No captain return but strong points from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (9), along with a lucky sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo produced a huge eighty-three points total. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week for Gameweek 16

Keeper and Defence

Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is going to be loud, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those matches that is full of tension but minimal clear chances.

Which would render Roefs, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid pick.

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

An Gunners defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have one goal away from home this season and one in their past six fixtures.

White is a fantastic attacking option when he is given his chance. He started the last two at full-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and tops the charts in that time among Gunners defensive players with 2 key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are unpredictable so this selection is more about the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's upside.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any defender in the league.

And he is yet to score this season, having netted five goals the previous campaign.

Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home)

You can't have great expectations for a United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the past two matches.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the last three games.

In those matches he's taken 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolves on Monday night as well.

Midfielders

Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (home)

This game against Wolves is too tempting to ignore and that makes Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset a must-have.

No stats required to back this up. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted four and could have had double that.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)

Just a single point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is incredibly reliable for the Gunners.

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

He's also the surest bet for minutes as Mikel Arteta could see this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his squad.

Fernandes, United, £9m - the Cherries (home)

The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, always a candidate for defensive contribution points and with multiple ways to points.

Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first full 90 minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be rushing to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'European defeat at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be fresh for Everton.

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

Leeds United come into this game following two strong home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three times for each one they've scored.

This is likely Ouattara last fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He has been outstanding for the Bees this season, and has 5 attacking returns in his last three fixtures at home.

Forwards

Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It has been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with just three points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has seven goals in 7 fixtures at home. He is the top forward option this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget up until the January window at least.

Hugo Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton (home)

It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the young striker, after his brace haul at Leeds United.

He performed well at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for playing time at centre-forward.

Subs' Bench

• Martin Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
