Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Assets to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week
The key move in this FPL team of the gameweek involves opt for no Manchester City assets - indeed, even Haaland!
Our budget is needed to load up on Gunners players as they host among the worst sides in Premier League recent memory.
It's true, Manchester City smashed in 5 times on their most recent away fixture, but this time they face Palace, who have the second-best defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in terms of expected goals conceded.
And the Gunners home to Wolves is the kind of match-up you need to target - the leading team in the division against one lacking of momentum, quality and confidence.
This lineup of the week is selected based on current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.
Performance of Last Week's Squad Perform?
No captain return but high points from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a massive eighty-three points. Boom!
FPL Squad of the Week for Fixture 16
Goalkeeper & Defenders
Robin Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)
This long-awaited derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be loud, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those games that is full of tension but minimal clear chances.
A scenario that would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid option.
White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h)
An Arsenal defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have one goal away from home so far and one in their past six fixtures.
Ben White is a fantastic offensive threat when he is given his chance. Having started the last two at right-back, had a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and tops the way in that time among Arsenal defenders with two key passes, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
Everton are unpredictable so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's potential.
Chelsea have the fourth-best defensive record while he has created more opportunities (19) than any defensive player in the league.
And he is yet to score yet, after scoring five times last season.
Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (h)
You shouldn't have great hopes for a United clean sheet - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the past two games.
More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the past 3 games.
During that spell he's taken 4 shots, 2 big chances, one goal and an assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.
Midfield Picks
Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (home)
This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that makes Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset essential.
No stats required to back this up. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolves on Monday, scored 4 and could have had twice as many.
Arsenal will be licking their lips.
Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h)
One point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is incredibly consistent for Arsenal.
More attacking this season, he's generated more opportunities than any other Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to show for it.
He's also the most reliable for minutes as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a opportunity to rest his squad.
Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (h)
The Portuguese playmaker may have taken over from Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.
Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive bonus points and with several ways to points.
Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (home)
This week's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.
You get the feeling that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be rushing to bring him in.
He was absent for ChelseaEuropean defeat at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for the Toffees.
Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds United (h)
Leeds enter this game off the back of two strong home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three goals for each one they've scored.
This is probably Ouattara last match before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.
He's been outstanding for Brentford this term, and has five goal contributions in his last three fixtures at home.
Strikers
Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (home)
It has been a frustrating last few gameweeks for the striker FPL managers, with only 3 FPL points in two matches.
Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has seven strikes in 7 home games. He's the prime striker choice this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold until the January window at least.
Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)
It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the young Frenchman, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.
He performed strongly at the beginning of the campaign and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not arrived and challenged him for minutes at the number nine role.
The Bench
- Martin Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
