Which Top 3 Arsenal Picks to Pick v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek
The big move in the Fantasy Premier League squad of the week involves go with no City players - and yes, even Haaland!
The funds is needed to load up on Arsenal assets as they face at home among the worst sides in Premier League history.
Yes, Manchester City scored in five times on their last away trip, but this time they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defence in the league for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.
And Arsenal hosting Wolves is the type of match-up you just have to target - the best side in the league against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and confidence.
The team of the gameweek is picked using current FPL prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.
Performance of Last Week's Squad Do?
The captain didn't deliver but big scores from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo produced a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!
FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16
Goalkeeper & Defenders
Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)
The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is likely to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it could be one of those tight matches that is all drama but little clear chances.
Which would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid option.
Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
An Arsenal defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have one goal scored on the road this season and one in their past six fixtures.
White is a fantastic attacking option when he gets his opportunity. He started the last two at right-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and tops the way in that period among Gunners defensive players with two key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (home)
Everton are erratic so this pick is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential.
The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the league.
And he is yet to score yet, after scoring five times last season.
Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home)
You can't have high expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have dried up in the last two matches.
More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly attacking positions as a wing-back in the last 3 games.
During that spell he's taken 4 shots, 2 big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolves on Monday night too.
Midfield
Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)
This fixture against Wolves is too good to ignore and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player a must-have.
No stats needed to support this pick. United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted four and could have had twice as many.
The Gunners will be keen to attack.
Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)
Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is incredibly reliable for the Gunners.
More attacking this term, he's generated more opportunities than any Gunners player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.
He's also the surest bet for minutes as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a chance to rest his players.
Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (home)
Fernandes might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfielder.
Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with several ways to points.
Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (h)
This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy layoff and we know what an explosive FPL asset he is capable of being.
You sense that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to sign him up.
He was absent for ChelseaChampions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.
Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)
Leeds enter this match following two great home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three goals for each one they've scored.
This is probably Ouattara last fixture before heading to the AFCON.
He's been excellent for the Bees this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his past three home matches.
Attack
Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (home)
It's been a disappointing last few gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with just three points in two matches.
Nevertheless, he's the second-highest top scorer in the division and has seven goals in 7 fixtures at home. He is the prime forward option for this round and, with a favourable fixture list, you can select and hold until the end of January at least.
Hugo Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton (home)
It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the young striker, after his brace performance at Leeds United.
He was well at the start of the season and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at the number nine role.
The Bench
- Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
