Which Top 3 Arsenal Assets to Pick v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week

The key call in this FPL squad of the week involves go with zero Manchester City players - and yes, even Haaland!

Our budget is essential to invest heavily on Gunners players as they welcome one of the most struggling sides in English top-flight recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City scored a total of five times on their last away fixture, but this time they meet Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in terms of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you must exploit - the top side in the league against one lacking of form, technical ability and confidence.

The lineup of the week is picked based on current FPL prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Team Do?

The captain didn't deliver but big scores from Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo produced a monster 83 points. Boom!

FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)

This long-awaited derby in the top flight for eight years is going to be loud, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those matches that is all drama but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid option.

White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolves (h)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have one goal away from home so far and a single goal in their past six matches.

Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his chance. He started the last two games at right-back, had a fourteen-point return against Brentford and tops the way in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 big chances created, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (home)

The Toffees are unpredictable so this pick is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while he has created more chances (19) than any defender in the division.

And he is yet to score this season, after scoring five times the previous campaign.

Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)

You can't have high hopes for a United shutout - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the last two games.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the past 3 games.

In those matches he's taken four attempts, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He also missed a cracking opportunity at Wolves on Monday night as well.

Midfield Picks

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

This fixture against Wolves is too juicy to ignore and that renders Saka, the Gunners'top attacking player a must-have.

Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, scored 4 and might have had double that.

Arsenal will be keen to attack.

Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)

Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is incredibly reliable for the Gunners.

More advanced this season, he's generated more chances than any Gunners player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.

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

Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h)

Fernandes may have replaced Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

Match-up proof, always a candidate for defensive bonus points and with several ways to FPL returns.

Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (h)

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has one good game, FPL managers will be rushing to sign him up.

He was absent for ChelseaChampions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (h)

Leeds United come into this match following two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three goals for each one they've netted.

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

He's been superb for the Bees this term, and has five goal contributions in his last three home matches.

Strikers

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

It has been a frustrating last few gameweeks for the striker FPL managers, with just 3 FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has seven strikes in seven home games. He's the top striker choice for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can select and hold until the January window at least.

Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (home)

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the promising Frenchman, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He performed great at the beginning of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

The Bench

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