Selecting the Top 3 Arsenal Players to Pick v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Week

One key move in this Fantasy Premier League team of the gameweek is to go with no City assets - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

Our budget is required to go all-in on Arsenal players as they face at home one of the worst sides in Premier League recent memory.

It's true, City scored in 5 goals on their most recent away trip, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defensive record in the league for goals allowed and fourth-best in terms of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the type of encounter you just have to target - the top team in the division against one devoid of form, quality and confidence.

The team of the gameweek is selected based on current FPL prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.

Performance of The Previous Team Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but high hauls from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance resulted in a massive 83 points. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is going to be noisy, passionate, combative - and it might be one of those tight games that is full of tension but minimal clear chances.

Which would make Roefs, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid option.

Ben White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

An Gunners defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have one goal scored away from home so far and one in their last six fixtures.

White is a excellent attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the past two at right-back, had a 14-point haul against the Bees and tops the way in that time among Arsenal defenders with two big chances created, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are unpredictable so this selection is more about the Blues'defence and Cucurella potential.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while he has generated more chances (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the division.

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

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

You shouldn't have great hopes for a United shutout - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the past two matches.

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

During that spell he's had four attempts, two big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolves on Monday night as well.

Midfield Picks

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

This fixture against Wolves is too juicy to pass up and that renders Saka, Arsenaltop attacking player a must-have.

No stats needed to back this up. Manchester United had 27 shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted 4 and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

Just a single point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is so reliable for the Gunners.

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

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

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

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

Fixture-proof, consistently a shout for defensive bonus points and with multiple routes to points.

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

This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes since returning after a long layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.

You sense that, as quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in.

He missed ChelseaChampions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds come into this match off the back of two great home performances against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have conceded three times for each one they've scored.

This is likely Ouattara final match before departing for the AFCON.

He has been superb for the Bees this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his past 3 fixtures at home.

Attack

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

It has been a frustrating couple of weeks for Thiago owners, with just three points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest top scorer in the division and has 7 goals in seven fixtures at home. He's the prime striker choice for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can select and hold up until the January window at the very least.

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

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the young Frenchman, after his brace haul at Leeds.

He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.

Substitutes

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