Which Top 3 Gunners Assets to Pick v Wolverhampton? FPL Team of the Gameweek

One key decision in the FPL lineup of the gameweek involves opt for no Manchester City assets - indeed, that includes Haaland!

The funds is needed to invest heavily on Gunners players as they host among the poorest sides in English top-flight recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City smashed a total of five times on their most recent away trip, but now they meet Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you must attack - the top team in the league against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.

The lineup of the gameweek is picked using current prices to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

Performance of The Previous Team Fare?

No captain return but big points from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a huge eighty-three points total. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

Roefs, the Black Cats, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)

The first derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it could be one of those matches that is all drama but minimal clear chances.

A scenario that would make Roefs, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent shout.

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

An Gunners defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored on the road so far and one in their last 6 matches.

White is a excellent attacking option when he gets his opportunity. He started the last two at full-back, had a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and tops the way in that time among Arsenal defensive players with two key passes, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

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

Everton are unpredictable so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential.

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

And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five times the previous campaign.

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

You can't have high expectations for a United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have dried up in the past two games.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.

In those matches he's had 4 attempts, two big chances, one goal and one assist. He also missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday too.

Midfield

Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

This game against Wolverhampton is too tempting to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'top attacking player a must-have.

No stats needed 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.

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

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

With more license to attack this term, he's created more opportunities than any other Gunners player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager might view this as a chance to rest his squad.

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

Match-up proof, consistently a candidate for defensive bonus points and with multiple routes to FPL returns.

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

This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy layoff and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.

He was absent for the Blues'European loss at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for Everton.

Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (h)

Leeds enter this match following two strong home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three goals for every one they've netted.

This is likely the winger's final fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He's been superb for the Bees this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his past 3 fixtures at home.

Attack

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

It's been a disappointing last few weeks for Thiago owners, with just three points in two matches.

However, he's the second goal scorer in the division and has 7 goals in 7 home games. He is the prime striker choice for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget up until the end of January at the very least.

Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (h)

Surely the manager continues to start with the promising Frenchman, after his brace haul at Leeds United.

He was well at the beginning of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

Substitutes
