Selecting the Top 3 Arsenal Picks to Pick v Wolverhampton? FPL Team of the Week

One big call in this Fantasy Premier League squad of the week involves opt for zero City players - and yes, that includes Haaland!

Our funds is essential to invest heavily on Arsenal assets as they host among the poorest teams in English top-flight recent memory.

It's true, City smashed in 5 goals on their last away trip, but this time they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of xGC.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you need to attack - the leading side in the league against one devoid of form, technical ability and self-belief.

This squad of the gameweek is picked using current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Lineup Fare?

No captain return but high hauls from Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a massive eighty-three points. Success!

FPL Lineup of the Week for Gameweek 16

Keeper and Defence

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

This long-awaited derby in the Premier League since 2016 is set to be noisy, passionate, combative - and it may prove to be one of those tight games that is full of tension but little clear chances.

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

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h)

An Gunners defender is a must this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored away from home so far and a single goal in their last six matches.

Ben White is a great offensive threat when he gets his chance. Having started the last two games at right-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and tops the way in that time among Gunners defensive players with two big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

Everton are inconsistent so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defender in the league.

And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five goals the previous campaign.

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

You shouldn't have high expectations for a United clean sheet - they have one all season - but the Cherries'goals have dried up in the past two games.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the past three fixtures.

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

Midfield Picks

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

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

Little statistical analysis required to back this up. Manchester United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolves on Monday night, netted four and could have had double that.

Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.

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

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

With more license to attack this season, he's created more chances than any other Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the surest bet for game time as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his squad.

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

Fernandes might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

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

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

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.

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

He missed ChelseaEuropean loss at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be fresh for Everton.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds United (h)

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

This is likely the winger's final fixture before departing for the AFCON.

He's been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has 5 attacking returns in his past three fixtures at home.

Forwards

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

It has been a frustrating last few weeks for Thiago FPL managers, with just three points in two games.

However, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has seven strikes in 7 home games. 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.

Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (h)

It is expected that the manager continues to start with the young striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.

He was strongly at the beginning of the season and you wonder what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for playing time at centre-forward.

The Bench

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