Selecting the Top 3 Arsenal Players to Select v Wolverhampton? FPL Squad of the Week

The big call in this Fantasy Premier League squad of the gameweek involves select zero City players - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

The budget are needed to load up on Arsenal players as they face at home among the worst sides in English top-flight history.

Yes, City scored in 5 goals on their last away fixture, but this time they face Palace, who have the second-best defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the sort of encounter you need to target - the top team in the league against one lacking of form, technical ability and self-belief.

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

Performance of The Previous Lineup Perform?

No captain return but big points from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a monster eighty-three points total. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Defensive Picks

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those tight games that is all drama but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render Roefs, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent pick.

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

An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have one goal away from home so far and a single goal in their past six matches.

Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. Having started the last two at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and tops the way in that time among Arsenal defensive players with two big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this pick is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's upside.

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

And he is yet to score yet, after scoring five times the previous campaign.

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

You can't have great expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the last two matches.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly attacking positions as left wing-back in the past 3 games.

During that spell he's taken four shots, 2 big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolves is too juicy to ignore and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player essential.

No stats required to back this up. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, netted 4 and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

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

More attacking this term, he's created more chances than any other Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the surest bet for game time as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a chance to rest his squad.

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

Fernandes may have replaced Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

Match-up proof, consistently a candidate for defensive contribution points and with several ways to FPL returns.

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

This gameweek's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a long layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being.

You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be rushing to bring him in.

He missed ChelseaChampions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds enter this match off the back of two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have conceded three goals for every one they've netted.

This is probably Ouattara last fixture before departing for the AFCON.

He has been excellent for the Bees this term, and has five attacking returns in his past 3 fixtures at home.

Strikers

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It has been a frustrating last few gameweeks for the striker FPL managers, with only three points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the division and has seven goals in seven fixtures at home. He is the prime forward option for this round and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget until the January window at least.

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

It is expected that Arne Slot continues to start with the promising Frenchman, after his two-goal haul at Leeds.

He was well at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not arrived and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.

Subs' Bench

• Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
