Which Top 3 Gunners Picks to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek

One key decision in the FPL squad of the gameweek is to opt for zero Manchester City assets - and yes, even Erling Haaland!

Our budget is needed to go all-in on Arsenal assets as they face at home among the most struggling teams in English top-flight history.

It's true, Manchester City scored in five goals on their last away fixture, but now they take on Palace, a side with the second-best defence in the league for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of xGC.

And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you need to target - the top side in the league against one devoid of form, technical ability and confidence.

This squad of the week is chosen based on current valuations to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Team Fare?

No captain return but big points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a lucky sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!

FPL Squad of the Week for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

The first derby in the top flight for eight years is set to be loud, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those matches that is full of tension but minimal goalmouth action.

A scenario that would make the Sunderland keeper, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent option.

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

An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have one goal scored on the road this season and a single goal in their last six matches.

Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his chance. He started the past two games at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and leads the way in that time among Gunners defenders with two big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's upside.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any defender in the league.

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

Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)

You shouldn't have high expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the last two matches.

More importantly, Dalot has been getting in some incredibly attacking positions as a wing-back in the last 3 games.

During that spell he's had four attempts, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well.

Midfield Picks

Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

This game against Wolves is too good to ignore and that renders Saka, the Gunners'top attacking player essential.

Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolves on Monday, netted 4 and might have had double that.

Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home)

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

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

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

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

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

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

This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first full 90 minutes since returning after a long layoff 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, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'European defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be fresh for Everton.

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

Leeds United come into this game following two strong home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but on the road they have conceded three times for each one they've netted.

This is probably the winger's final match before heading to the AFCON.

He's been superb for the Bees this term, and has five attacking returns in his past 3 home matches.

Attack

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

It's been a disappointing last few gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with only three points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has 7 goals in seven home games. He is the prime striker choice for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold until the January window at least.

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

Surely the manager continues to start with the promising striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds United.

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

The Bench

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