Which Three Arsenal Picks to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek

The key call in the FPL squad of the week is to opt for zero City assets - and yes, even Haaland!

The funds are required to go all-in on Arsenal assets as they face at home one of the poorest sides in Premier League recent memory.

It's true, City smashed in 5 times on their last away trip, but now they meet Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in terms of xGC.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you just have to target - the top side in the league against one lacking of momentum, quality and confidence.

The squad of the week is picked using current prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.

Performance of Last Week's Lineup Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but high points from Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a massive eighty-three points. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those matches that is all drama but minimal clear chances.

Which would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good option.

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

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored away from home so far and one in their last 6 fixtures.

Ben White is a fantastic attacking option when he is given his chance. Having started the past two at right-back, had a 14-point return against Brentford and leads the charts in that time among Gunners defensive players with two key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (h)

The Toffees are inconsistent so this pick is more about the Blues'defensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has created more chances (19) than any defensive player in the league.

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 high expectations for a United shutout - they have one all season - but Bournemouthgoals have slowed down in the past two games.

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

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

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolverhampton is too good to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player a must-have.

No stats needed to back this up. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted four and might have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

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

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

He's also the most reliable for game time as the manager could see this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his squad.

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

Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with multiple ways to points.

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

This week's punt, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy injury and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to bring him in.

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

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

Leeds enter this match following two strong home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three times for every one they've scored.

This is probably the winger's final fixture before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.

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

Attack

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

It has been a frustrating couple of weeks for the striker FPL managers, with just 3 FPL points in two matches.

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

Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)

Surely the manager continues to start with the young striker, after his brace haul at Leeds United.

He was strongly at the beginning of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had Alexander Isak not arrived and competed with him for minutes at the number nine role.

Subs' Bench

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