Which Top 3 Gunners Assets to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek

One major call in the FPL lineup of the week is to opt for no City players - and yes, even Erling Haaland!

Our funds is required to go all-in on Gunners players as they face at home among the poorest teams in Premier League history.

Yes, City scored a total of 5 goals on their most recent away trip, but this time they meet Palace, a side with the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in terms of xGC.

And the Gunners hosting Wolves is the kind of fixture you just have to attack - the best team in the division against one lacking of form, quality and confidence.

This team of the gameweek is chosen based on current prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.

Performance of Last Week's Team Perform?

No captain return but high points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo resulted in a massive 83 points. Success!

FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Fixture 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 loud, fiery, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those matches that is full of tension but little clear chances.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Gunners defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have one goal away from home so far and one in their past 6 matches.

Ben White is a fantastic attacking option when he gets his opportunity. Having started the past two at full-back, had a 14-point haul against Brentford and tops the charts in that period among Arsenal defensive players with 2 key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are inconsistent so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's potential.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defender in the league.

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

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

You can't have great hopes for a United shutout - they have one all season - but the Cherries'goals have dried up in the last two matches.

Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the past 3 games.

During that spell he's taken 4 shots, two big chances, one goal and an assist. He also missed a cracking chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well.

Midfielders

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

This game against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that makes Saka, the Gunners'top attacking player essential.

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

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

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

One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is incredibly reliable for the Gunners.

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

He's also the surest bet for minutes as the manager might view this as a chance to rotate his players.

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

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

Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.

You sense that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to bring him in.

He missed the Blues'Champions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds United come into this game following two great home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three goals for every one they've scored.

This is probably the winger's final fixture before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.

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

Attack

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

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

Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has seven goals in 7 home games. He is the prime forward option for this round and, with a favourable fixture list, you can select and hold until the end of January at the very least.

Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h)

Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the young Frenchman, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.

He was well at the start of the season and you wonder what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not arrived and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

Subs' Bench

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