Which Three Arsenal Players to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Lineup of the Week

The key move in the Fantasy Premier League team of the week is to opt for no Manchester City players - and yes, even Haaland!

The budget are essential to go all-in on Arsenal assets as they face at home among the poorest sides in English top-flight recent memory.

Yes, City scored a total of five times on their last away trip, but now they take on Crystal Palace, a side with the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the type of match-up you just have to target - the leading team in the division against one lacking of form, technical ability and confidence.

The lineup of the gameweek is selected using current prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Team Fare?

The captain didn't deliver but strong scores from Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo produced a massive eighty-three points. Success!

FPL Team of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Defensive Picks

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (h)

This long-awaited derby in the Premier League since 2016 is going to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

Which would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid shout.

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

An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolves have one goal scored on the road so far and one in their last six matches.

Ben White is a great offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. He started the past two games at right-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the way in that period among Gunners defenders with two key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this selection is more about the Blues'defensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential.

The London club have the fourth-best defence while he has created more chances (nineteen) than any other defender in the division.

And he is yet to score yet, after scoring five goals last season.

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

You shouldn't have great hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the past two matches.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some incredibly attacking positions as left wing-back in the last three games.

During that spell he's had 4 attempts, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He also missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday night as well.

Midfield Picks

Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too good to pass up and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset a must-have.

No stats required to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday, scored four and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be licking their lips.

Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

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

More advanced this term, he's created more opportunities than any other Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to his name.

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

Bruno Fernandes, United, £9m - Bournemouth (home)

Fernandes might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with multiple ways to FPL returns.

Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes since returning after a lengthy injury and we are aware what an explosive FPL asset he is capable of being.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to sign him up.

He was absent for the Blues'European loss at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.

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

Leeds United come into this match off the back of two strong home results against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have let in three goals for every one they've scored.

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

He's been excellent for Brentford this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Strikers

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

It has been a disappointing last few weeks for the striker FPL managers, with only 3 points in two matches.

However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the league and has seven strikes in seven fixtures at home. He's the best striker choice this week and, with a favourable fixture list, you can select and hold up until the January window at the very least.

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

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

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

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