Which Three Gunners Players to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week

The major move in the Fantasy Premier League squad of the week involves go with no City assets - indeed, that includes Erling Haaland!

Our funds are required to load up on Gunners assets as they welcome among the worst teams in English top-flight history.

It's true, City smashed a total of five goals on their most recent away trip, but now they meet Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in terms of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolves is the kind of match-up you must exploit - the top team in the league against one lacking of form, quality and confidence.

This team of the week is chosen based on current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

Performance of The Previous Lineup Fare?

The captain didn't deliver but big points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo led to a massive 83 points. Success!

FPL Team of the Week for Gameweek 16

Keeper and Defence

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is going to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good pick.

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

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick this week. Wolves have just one goal away from home this season and one in their past six matches.

Ben White is a excellent attacking option when he gets his opportunity. Having started the past two at right-back, registered a 14-point return against the Bees and tops the charts in that time among Gunners defensive players with 2 key passes, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

Everton are unpredictable so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and Cucurella upside.

The London club have the fourth-best defensive record while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (19) than any defender in the league.

And he is yet to score yet, having netted five times the previous campaign.

Diogo Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (h)

You shouldn't have high expectations for a United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthgoals have dried up in the past two games.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the last three fixtures.

During that spell he's had four attempts, 2 big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a great opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfield Picks

Saka (C), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolves (home)

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too good to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset essential.

No stats required to support this pick. United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted four and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

One point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is incredibly consistent for Arsenal.

With more license to attack this season, he's created more chances than any other Gunners player (27) 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, United, £9m - Bournemouth (home)

Fernandes might have taken over from Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, always a candidate for defensive contribution points and with multiple routes to FPL returns.

Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)

This gameweek's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes since returning after a lengthy layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.

You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to bring him in.

He was absent for ChelseaChampions League loss at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds United (home)

Leeds come into this match off the back of two strong home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three goals for each one they've netted.

This is probably Ouattara final fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He's been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has five goal contributions in his past 3 home matches.

Strikers

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It has been a frustrating last few weeks for Thiago owners, with only three points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has 7 goals in seven fixtures at home. He is the best forward option for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can select and hold until the January window at the very least.

Hugo Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h)

It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the young striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds United.

He was well 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 playing time at the number nine role.

The Bench

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