Which Three Arsenal Players to Pick v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week

The major call in the FPL squad of the week is to opt for no Manchester City assets - and yes, even Erling Haaland!

Our budget are essential to invest heavily on Arsenal players as they face at home one of the worst sides in Premier League recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City smashed a total of 5 times on their most recent away fixture, but now they meet Palace, a side with the second-best defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of xGC.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of fixture you need to exploit - the top side in the division against one lacking of form, quality and self-belief.

This lineup of the week is picked based on current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Team Do?

No captain return but strong points from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo produced a huge 83 points. Success!

FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (h)

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is likely to be loud, fiery, feisty - and it might be one of those tight games that is all drama but little clear chances.

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

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

An Gunners defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal away from home so far and one in their past 6 matches.

White is a great attacking option when he gets his chance. He started the last two at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and tops the charts in that time among Arsenal defensive players with two big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are erratic so this selection is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (19) than any other defender in the division.

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

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

You shouldn't have great hopes for a United clean sheet - they have just one all season - but Bournemouthgoals have slowed down in the past two matches.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.

During that spell he's had 4 shots, two clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday as well.

Midfield

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

This game against Wolves is too good 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 Wolverhampton on Monday night, scored four and might have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

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

One point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is incredibly reliable for Arsenal.

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

He's also the surest bet for game time as the manager might view this as a chance to rest his players.

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

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

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

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

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

He was absent for ChelseaChampions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.

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

Leeds enter this game following two strong home results against Chelsea and Liverpool, but on the road they have conceded three goals for each one they've netted.

This is probably the winger's final fixture before departing for the AFCON.

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

Forwards

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

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

However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the division and has seven goals in seven home games. He's the prime forward option this week and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget until the end of January at the very least.

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

It is expected that the manager continues to start with the young striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.

He performed strongly at the start of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.

The Bench

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