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

The big decision in the Fantasy Premier League team of the gameweek involves go with no City assets - and yes, even Haaland!

The funds is essential to invest heavily on Arsenal players as they host one of the worst sides in English top-flight history.

It's true, Manchester City smashed in five goals on their most recent away fixture, but now they face Crystal Palace, a side with the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the type of fixture you must target - the leading team in the league against one lacking of form, technical ability and confidence.

The lineup of the week is picked based on current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

Performance of The Previous Squad Fare?

The captain didn't deliver but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!

FPL Squad of the Week for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is set to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it might be one of those matches that is full of tension but minimal goalmouth action.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good pick.

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

An Gunners defensive asset is a must for this fixture. Wolves have one goal away from home this season and a single goal in their past six matches.

Ben White is a fantastic attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the past two at full-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the charts in that period among Arsenal defensive players with two key passes, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

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

Chelsea have the fourth-best defence while he has created more opportunities (19) than any defender in the league.

And he hasn't scored yet, after scoring five goals last season.

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

You can't have high expectations for a United shutout - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the last two matches.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some very advanced roles as left wing-back in the last three fixtures.

During that spell he's taken 4 shots, two clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He also missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday night too.

Midfielders

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

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

Little statistical analysis required to back this up. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolves on Monday night, netted 4 and might have had double that.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

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

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

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

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

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

Match-up proof, consistently a candidate for defensive bonus points and with several routes to FPL returns.

Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a long injury and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being.

You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up.

He missed ChelseaChampions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be fresh for Everton.

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

Leeds United enter this match following two great home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have conceded three goals for every one they've scored.

This is probably Ouattara last match before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been superb for Brentford this season, and has 5 attacking returns in his past 3 home matches.

Attack

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)

It's been a disappointing couple of gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with just three points in two games.

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

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

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

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

Subs' Bench
