🔗 Share this article Selecting the Three Arsenal Picks to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Squad of the Week The key call in this Fantasy Premier League lineup of the gameweek involves opt for no City assets - indeed, that includes Erling Haaland! Our budget are essential to go all-in on Gunners players as they face at home one of the most struggling sides in Premier League history. It's true, Manchester City smashed a total of five goals on their most recent away trip, but now they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the league for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded. And Arsenal hosting Wolves is the type of match-up you just have to attack - the top team in the division against one devoid of form, quality and self-belief. This squad of the week is chosen using current valuations to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit. How did The Previous Lineup Do? No captain return but strong hauls from Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance resulted in a massive eighty-three points. Success! FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16 Goalkeeper & Defenders Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home) The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is likely to be loud, fiery, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those matches that is full of tension but little clear chances. Which would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent option. White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h) An Gunners defensive asset is a must for this fixture. Wolves have one goal scored on the road so far and a single goal in their last six fixtures. Ben White is a fantastic offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. He started the past two at right-back, registered a 14-point return against the Bees and tops the charts in that period among Arsenal defensive players with 2 big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7. Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home) Everton are inconsistent so this selection is more about Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's upside. Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has created more chances (19) than any other defensive player in the league. And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five goals the previous campaign. Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home) You can't have great expectations for a United shutout - they have one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthgoals have slowed down in the past two matches. Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the past 3 games. In those matches he's taken 4 attempts, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday too. Midfield Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h) This fixture against Wolverhampton is too tempting to pass up and that makes Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset essential. No stats required to support this pick. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, scored four and might have had twice as many. Arsenal will be licking their lips. Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h) One point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is so reliable for Arsenal. More attacking this season, he's generated more chances than any Gunners teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name. He's also the surest bet for game time as Mikel Arteta might view this as a chance to rest his players. Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h) Fernandes might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset. Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive bonus points and with several ways to points. Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h) This week's punt, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a lengthy layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he can be. You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up. He missed ChelseaChampions League loss at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for Everton. Dango Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (h) Leeds United enter this match off the back of two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have conceded three times for each one they've scored. This is likely the winger's final fixture before heading to the AFCON. He's been superb for the Bees this season, and has five attacking returns in his past 3 home matches. Forwards Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (home) It has been a disappointing couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with just three FPL 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 run of games, you can set and forget up until the January window at the very least. Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h) It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the young striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United. He was great at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward. The Bench Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
