Which Top 3 Gunners Players to Pick v Wolverhampton? FPL Lineup of the Week
The big decision in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week involves select zero City assets - indeed, even Erling Haaland!
Our funds are needed to go all-in on Gunners assets as they host one of the poorest teams in English top-flight recent memory.
Yes, Manchester City scored in 5 times on their most recent away trip, but this time they meet Palace, who have the second-best defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.
And Arsenal hosting Wolves is the kind of match-up you need to exploit - the leading team in the league against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and confidence.
The team of the week is picked using current valuations to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.
How did The Previous Lineup Perform?
No captain return but strong scores from Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo led to a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!
Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek for Fixture 16
Defensive Picks
Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)
This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be loud, fiery, feisty - and it could be one of those games that is full of tension but little clear chances.
Which would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a good pick.
White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h)
An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored on the road this season and one in their last 6 fixtures.
Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. He started the last two at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against the Bees and tops the charts in that time among Gunners defensive players with 2 big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
The Toffees are erratic so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential.
Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while he has generated more chances (nineteen) than any defender in the division.
And he is yet to score this season, having netted five goals last season.
Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)
You can't have great expectations for a United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the last two matches.
Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the last 3 fixtures.
In those matches he's taken four shots, 2 big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.
Midfield Picks
Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)
This game against Wolverhampton is too juicy to pass up and that makes Saka, the Gunners'top offensive asset essential.
No stats required to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted four and could have had double that.
Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.
Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home)
One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is incredibly reliable 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 Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his squad.
Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (h)
Fernandes may have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfielder.
Match-up proof, always a candidate for defensive contribution points and with multiple routes to FPL returns.
Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h)
This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being.
You get the feeling that, as soon as he has one good game, FPL managers will be flocking to bring him in.
He was absent for the Blues'European loss at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be fresh for Everton.
Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)
Leeds United enter this match following two great home performances against Chelsea and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three goals for every one they've netted.
This is probably Ouattara last match before heading to the AFCON.
He has been excellent for Brentford this term, and has five goal contributions in his last three home matches.
Attack
Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (home)
It's been a frustrating last few gameweeks for the striker owners, with just 3 FPL points in two matches.
However, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has seven strikes in 7 fixtures at home. He is the best forward option this week and, with a favourable fixture list, you can select and hold until the end of January at the very least.
Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (h)
Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the young striker, after his brace haul at Leeds United.
He performed great at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not been signed and competed with him for playing time at the number nine role.
The Bench
- Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
