Selecting the Three Arsenal Players to Select v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek

The key decision in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week involves go with no City players - indeed, even Haaland!

Our funds is required to go all-in on Arsenal players as they welcome among the most struggling sides in Premier League history.

It's true, City smashed in five times on their most recent away trip, but now they take on Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in terms of xGC.

And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of match-up you must exploit - the top side in the division against one lacking of form, quality and confidence.

This lineup of the week is chosen based on current FPL prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.

Performance of Last Week's Lineup Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo resulted in a monster 83 points. Boom!

FPL Team of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

This long-awaited derby in the top flight since 2016 is going to be loud, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those tight games that is all drama but minimal clear chances.

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

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolves have one goal away from home this season and a single goal in their last 6 matches.

Ben White is a great offensive threat when he gets his chance. He started the last two games at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against the Bees and leads the way in that time among Gunners defenders with two key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (h)

The Toffees are inconsistent so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's potential.

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

And he is yet to score yet, having netted five times last season.

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

You can't have high hopes for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the last two games.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the last three fixtures.

In those matches he's had 4 shots, 2 big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfield Picks

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

This fixture against Wolves is too juicy to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'top attacking player essential.

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

Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home)

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

With more license to attack this term, he's generated more opportunities than any other Arsenal player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager could see this as a chance to rotate his squad.

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

Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.

Fixture-proof, consistently a candidate for defensive bonus points and with multiple ways to points.

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

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a long injury and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset 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 missed ChelseaChampions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for the Toffees.

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

Leeds United come into this match following two great home results against the Blues and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three times for every one they've netted.

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

He has been outstanding for the Bees this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his last 3 home matches.

Forwards

Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (home)

It has been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with just 3 points in two games.

However, he's the second top scorer in the league and has seven goals in 7 fixtures at home. He is the best forward option this week and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget up until the end of January at least.

Ekitike, Liverpool, £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 was well at the start 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.

Substitutes

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