Selecting the Top 3 Arsenal Picks to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Team of the Gameweek
The key move in this Fantasy Premier League lineup of the gameweek involves opt for zero Manchester City assets - indeed, that includes Haaland!
Our funds is needed to invest heavily on Arsenal assets as they host one of the worst sides in Premier League recent memory.
It's true, City scored a total of five goals on their most recent away trip, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in terms of expected goals conceded.
And the Gunners home to Wolves is the type of match-up you just have to attack - the top side in the division against one devoid of form, technical ability and confidence.
The team of the week is picked using current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.
How did The Previous Squad Perform?
The captain didn't deliver but big scores from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a massive 83 points total. Success!
Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week for Fixture 16
Goalkeeper & Defenders
Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (h)
The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is going to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those tight games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.
Which would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good shout.
Ben White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
An Gunners defender is a must for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored away from home this season and one in their past six fixtures.
Ben White is a fantastic attacking option when he is given his opportunity. He started the past two at full-back, had a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the charts in that period among Arsenal defenders with two big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
Everton are inconsistent so this pick is focused more on Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's upside.
Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has created more opportunities (19) than any defender in the league.
And he is yet to score this season, having netted five goals last season.
Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)
You can't have high hopes for a United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have dried up in the last two matches.
Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very advanced roles as left wing-back in the past three games.
During that spell he's taken 4 attempts, two big chances, one goal and one assist. He missed a great opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday as well.
Midfield Picks
Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (home)
This game against Wolverhampton is too good to pass up and that makes Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player essential.
Little statistical analysis needed to back this up. United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday night, scored 4 and could have had double that.
The Gunners will be licking their lips.
Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (home)
Just a single point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is incredibly consistent for the Gunners.
More advanced this term, he's generated more chances than any other Gunners player (27) and has five assists to his name.
He's also the most reliable for game time as Mikel Arteta could see this as a chance to rest his players.
Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (h)
Fernandes may have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.
Fixture-proof, consistently a candidate for defensive contribution points and with several routes to points.
Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (home)
This gameweek's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy injury and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.
You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in.
He was absent for the Blues'Champions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he ought to be fresh for Everton.
Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)
Leeds United enter this match following two strong home performances against Chelsea and Liverpool, but on the road they have conceded three goals for every one they've netted.
This is likely the winger's last match before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.
He has been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has five goal contributions in his past three home matches.
Strikers
Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)
It's been a disappointing last few weeks for Thiago FPL managers, with only three points in two matches.
Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has 7 strikes in 7 home games. He's the prime striker choice for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can select and hold up until the January window at the very least.
Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h)
Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the young Frenchman, after his two-goal performance at Leeds United.
He performed great at the beginning of the season and you wonder what he would have done had Alexander Isak not arrived and challenged him for minutes at the number nine role.
Subs' Bench
- Martin Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
