Selecting the Top 3 Arsenal Picks to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

The big call in the Fantasy Premier League team of the week involves go with no Manchester City players - and yes, that includes Haaland!

Our funds is required to load up on Arsenal assets as they host one of the most struggling sides in Premier League history.

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

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the kind of fixture you must attack - the best team in the division against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.

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

Performance of Last Week's Squad Do?

The captain didn't deliver but high hauls from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a monster 83 points total. Success!

FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Keeper and Defence

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)

The first derby in the Premier League for eight years is likely to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those games that is full of tension but minimal clear chances.

Which would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick this week. Wolves have one goal scored on the road this season and a single goal in their past 6 matches.

Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. Having started the past two games at right-back, had a 14-point return against Brentford and tops the charts in that time among Gunners defenders with 2 big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

Everton are unpredictable so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (19) than any other defensive player in the division.

And he is yet to score yet, having netted five times last season.

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

You can't have high hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one all season - but Bournemouthgoals have dried up in the past two matches.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very advanced roles as a wing-back in the last three games.

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

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenaltop attacking player essential.

Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, netted four and might have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

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

More attacking this season, he's created more chances than any Arsenal player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the surest bet for game time as the manager could see this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his players.

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

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

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

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

This week's punt, Palmer has his first 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 soon as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'Champions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be fresh for the Toffees.

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)

Leeds come into this match off the back of two great home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three goals for each one they've scored.

This is likely the winger's last fixture before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been excellent for Brentford this season, and has five goal contributions in his last three home matches.

Forwards

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It has been a disappointing last few weeks for the striker owners, with only three FPL points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has seven strikes in 7 home games. He's the prime forward option this week and, with a favourable run of games, you can set and forget up until the January window at the very least.

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

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the promising Frenchman, after his two-goal performance at Leeds United.

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

Substitutes
