Which Top 3 Gunners Players to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek

One key move in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week is to opt for no City assets - indeed, that includes Erling Haaland!

The budget are essential to go all-in on Gunners assets as they welcome among the worst sides in Premier League recent memory.

It's true, City smashed in five goals on their most recent away fixture, but this time they take on Palace, a side with the second-best defensive record in the league for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in terms of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the sort of match-up you just have to target - the top team in the league against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.

The squad of the gameweek is chosen using current valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did Last Week's Lineup Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but strong scores from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (9), along with a lucky 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a massive eighty-three points total. Boom!

FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is likely to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those tight matches that is full of tension but minimal clear chances.

Which would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal away from home so far and a single goal in their last 6 fixtures.

Ben White is a fantastic offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. Having started the past two at right-back, had a 14-point haul against Brentford and tops the way in that time among Gunners defensive players with two big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (h)

The Toffees are erratic so this pick is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the league.

And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five goals last season.

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

You can't have great hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have dried up in the past two games.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the last 3 games.

During that spell he's taken 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He also missed a cracking chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well.

Midfield Picks

Saka (C), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

This game against Wolves is too good to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenaltop offensive asset a must-have.

No stats required to back this up. United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolves on Monday night, scored four and might have had double that.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

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

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

With more license to attack this term, he's generated more chances than any Gunners teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager might view this as a opportunity to rotate his squad.

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Semenyo as the essential FPL midfielder.

Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with several routes to points.

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

This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy injury and we are aware what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.

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

He was absent for ChelseaChampions League loss at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be fresh for the Toffees.

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

Leeds United come into this game following two strong home performances against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three times for each one they've scored.

This is probably the winger's final match before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been excellent for Brentford this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his last three home matches.

Strikers

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

It has been a frustrating last few weeks for Thiago owners, with just 3 FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has 7 goals in 7 home games. He is the prime forward option this week and, with a favourable fixture list, you can set and forget until the end of January at least.

Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton (h)

Surely the manager continues to start with the promising striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds.

He performed strongly at the beginning of the campaign and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had a rival striker not been signed and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

The Bench

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