Which Three Arsenal Players to Select v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek

One key decision in this Fantasy Premier League squad of the gameweek is to go with no City players - and yes, that includes Erling Haaland!

Our budget are essential to go all-in on Gunners assets as they host among the poorest sides in Premier League recent memory.

It's true, Manchester City smashed a total of five times on their last away trip, but now they meet Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the type of match-up you just have to attack - the leading team in the division against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and self-belief.

This team of the gameweek is picked based on current prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Lineup Fare?

No captain return but high points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo resulted in a massive eighty-three points. Boom!

FPL Squad of the Week for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (h)

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be noisy, passionate, combative - and it might be one of those games that is all drama but little clear chances.

Which would make Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid shout.

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a must this week. Wolves have just one goal on the road so far and one in their past 6 matches.

Ben White is a great offensive threat when he is given his chance. Having started the past two games at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and tops the charts in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this selection is more about the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's upside.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has generated more chances (nineteen) than any defensive player in the division.

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

Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)

You can't have high expectations for a Manchester United shutout - they have one all season - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the past two matches.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some incredibly attacking positions as left wing-back in the last three games.

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

Midfielders

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

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

No stats needed to back this up. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, scored four and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)

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

With more license to attack this term, he's generated more chances than any Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the most reliable for game time as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his players.

Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (home)

The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive bonus points and with multiple routes to points.

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

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we know what an explosive FPL asset he is capable of being.

You sense 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 defeat at the Italian side, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he ought to be fresh for Everton.

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (h)

Leeds come into this game off the back of two strong home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three times for every one they've netted.

This is likely Ouattara last match before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He has been excellent for the Bees this season, and has five goal contributions in his last three fixtures at home.

Attack

Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)

It's been a frustrating last few weeks for Thiago owners, with just three FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has seven goals in seven fixtures at home. He is the best forward option this week and, with a favourable run of games, you can set and forget until the end of January at the very least.

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

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the young striker, after his brace 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 Alexander Isak not been signed and challenged him for minutes at the number nine role.

Substitutes

• Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
