Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Players to Select v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Week

The major move in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week involves go with zero City assets - and yes, that includes Haaland!

Our funds are essential to invest heavily on Arsenal assets as they host among the worst sides in Premier League recent memory.

It's true, Manchester City smashed in five goals on their last away trip, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the league for goals allowed and fourth-best in terms of xGC.

And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the sort of match-up you just have to target - the best team in the division against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.

This lineup of the gameweek is selected using current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Lineup Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but strong scores from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), along with a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo produced a huge 83 points total. Success!

FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

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

This long-awaited derby in the Premier League since 2016 is likely to be loud, fiery, feisty - and it might be one of those matches that is all drama but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render Roefs, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid pick.

Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h)

An Gunners defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have one goal scored on the road this season and a single goal in their past 6 fixtures.

White is a excellent attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the last two at full-back, had a 14-point return against the Bees and tops the way in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

Everton are inconsistent so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential.

The London club have the fourth-best defence while Cucurella has generated more chances (nineteen) than any defensive player in the league.

And he is yet to score this season, after scoring five goals the previous campaign.

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

You shouldn't have great hopes for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one all season - but the Cherries'goals have dried up in the last two matches.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly attacking positions as left wing-back in the past three games.

In those matches he's taken 4 shots, two clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He also missed a cracking chance at Wolverhampton on Monday as well.

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolves is too juicy to ignore and that renders Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset a must-have.

Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolves on Monday, netted four and might have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be licking their lips.

Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home)

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

More attacking this season, he's generated more opportunities than any other Gunners player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for game time as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a chance to rotate his players.

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

Fernandes may have replaced Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.

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

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

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being.

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

He missed ChelseaEuropean defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds United come into this match following two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but away from home they have let in three times for each one they've netted.

This is likely Ouattara final fixture before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been superb for Brentford this term, and has five goal contributions in his last three fixtures at home.

Attack

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

It has been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with only three FPL points in two matches.

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

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

Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the young Frenchman, after his brace performance at Leeds United.

He performed strongly at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.

Substitutes

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