Which Three Arsenal Picks to Pick v Wolverhampton? FPL Team of the Week
One key move in this Fantasy Premier League lineup of the gameweek is to go with zero City assets - and yes, even Erling Haaland!
Our funds is essential to load up on Arsenal players as they welcome one of the most struggling teams in Premier League history.
Yes, Manchester City smashed in 5 times on their last away fixture, but now they meet Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.
And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the sort of match-up you just have to attack - the top team in the division against one devoid of form, quality and confidence.
This squad of the gameweek is selected using current prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.
How did Last Week's Lineup Perform?
No captain return but big hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance resulted in a massive 83 points. Boom!
Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week for Fixture 16
Keeper and Defence
Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)
This long-awaited derby in the top flight for eight years is likely to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those matches that is full of tension but minimal goalmouth action.
Which would render Roefs, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent pick.
White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home)
An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have one goal scored on the road this season and a single goal in their past six fixtures.
White is a excellent attacking option when he gets his opportunity. He started the past two at full-back, had a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and leads the charts in that time among Arsenal defenders with 2 key passes, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
The Toffees are unpredictable so this pick is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella upside.
The London club have the fourth-best defensive record while he has created more chances (nineteen) than any defender in the division.
And he is yet to score this season, having netted five goals the previous campaign.
Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (h)
You shouldn't have high hopes for a United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the past two games.
More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the last three games.
During that spell he's had four shots, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday too.
Midfielders
Bukayo Saka (captain), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h)
This fixture against Wolverhampton is too tempting to ignore and that makes Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player essential.
No stats required to back this up. United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted four and might have had twice as many.
The Gunners will be licking their lips.
Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (home)
Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is incredibly consistent for the Gunners.
More advanced this season, he's created more chances than any Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.
He's also the surest bet for game time as the manager might view this fixture as a chance to rotate his squad.
Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h)
The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.
Fixture-proof, consistently a candidate for defensive contribution points and with several ways to points.
Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (h)
This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.
You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.
He missed the Blues'Champions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be well-rested for Everton.
Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (h)
Leeds come into this match following two strong home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three goals for each one they've netted.
This is likely Ouattara last fixture before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.
He's been outstanding for the Bees this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his past 3 fixtures at home.
Strikers
Igor Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (home)
It has been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker 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 fixtures at home. He is the prime forward option for this round and, with a favourable fixture list, you can set and forget up until the end of January at least.
Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (home)
Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the young Frenchman, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.
He was great at the start of the campaign 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 the number nine role.
The Bench
- Martin Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
