Which Top 3 Gunners Picks to Pick v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

One major call in this FPL lineup of the week involves go with zero Manchester City assets - and yes, that includes Haaland!

Our funds is required to go all-in on Gunners players as they face at home among the poorest sides in Premier League recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City scored a total of 5 goals on their most recent away fixture, but this time they meet Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal hosting Wolves is the type of fixture you must exploit - the top side in the league against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and self-belief.

The team of the week is selected based on current valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

Performance of The Previous Squad Perform?

No captain return but big scores from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo produced a massive 83 points. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

The first derby in the Premier League since 2016 is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid option.

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have one goal scored on the road this season and one in their last 6 fixtures.

Ben White is a great offensive threat when he gets his chance. He started the last two games at right-back, had a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and tops the charts in that period among Arsenal defenders with 2 big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are unpredictable so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's potential.

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

And he hasn't scored yet, after scoring five times the previous campaign.

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

You shouldn't have high hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the last two games.

Crucially, Dalot has been getting in some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the last 3 games.

In those matches he's taken 4 attempts, 2 big chances, one goal and an assist. He missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday night as well.

Midfield

Bukayo Saka (captain), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

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

Little statistical analysis needed to back this up. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted four and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

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

One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is so consistent for the Gunners.

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

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager could see this as a chance to rest his players.

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.

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

Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (h)

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy injury and we know what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.

You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to bring him in.

He was absent for the Blues'Champions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be fresh for the Toffees.

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

Leeds come into this match off the back of two strong home results against Chelsea and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three times for every one they've scored.

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

He has been superb for the Bees this season, and has five goal contributions in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Attack

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

It's been a disappointing couple of gameweeks for Thiago owners, with only 3 FPL points in two matches.

However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the league and has seven strikes in 7 home games. He's the prime forward option for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can set and forget up until the January window at least.

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

Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the young striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds.

He performed great at the beginning of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not been signed and challenged him for playing time at centre-forward.

Subs' Bench

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