Selecting the Three Gunners Players to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek

One key call in the FPL team of the gameweek is to opt for no City assets - indeed, that includes Haaland!

Our budget are essential to invest heavily on Gunners players as they welcome among the worst teams in Premier League history.

It's true, City scored in 5 goals on their most recent away fixture, but now they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of xGC.

And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the type of match-up you just have to target - the best team in the division against one devoid of momentum, quality and self-belief.

This team of the gameweek is picked using current FPL prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Squad Perform?

No captain return but high points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a huge eighty-three points total. Success!

FPL Squad of the Week for Gameweek 16

Defensive Picks

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it might be one of those games that is full of tension but minimal goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid shout.

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

An Arsenal defender is a must for this fixture. Wolves have one goal scored on the road so far and one in their past six matches.

Ben White is a excellent attacking option when he is given his chance. He started the past two at right-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and tops the way in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 key passes, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are inconsistent so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and Cucurella upside.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has generated more chances (nineteen) than any defender in the division.

And he is yet to score yet, having netted five goals last season.

Diogo Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)

You can't have high expectations for a United shutout - they have just one all season - but Bournemouthscoring have dried up in the past two matches.

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

During that spell he's taken 4 attempts, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and one assist. He also missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday too.

Midfielders

Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too juicy to pass up and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player essential.

Little statistical analysis needed to support this pick. United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, scored four and might have had double that.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

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

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

With more license to attack this term, he's created more opportunities than any Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the surest bet for game time as Mikel Arteta could see this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his players.

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

Fernandes might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with several routes to points.

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

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.

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

He missed the Blues'Champions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for Everton.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (h)

Leeds United enter this game following two great home performances against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three goals for each one they've netted.

This is likely the winger's last match before departing for the AFCON.

He has been excellent for the Bees this term, and has five attacking returns in his past 3 fixtures at home.

Attack

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

It has been a disappointing couple of weeks for the striker owners, with only 3 points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the division and has seven strikes in 7 fixtures at home. He is the top striker choice this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget until the January window at the very least.

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

It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the young striker, after his brace haul at Leeds United.

He performed great at the beginning of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

Subs' Bench

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