Selecting the Three Arsenal Players to Pick v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

The big move in the Fantasy Premier League team of the gameweek is to select no City assets - indeed, that includes Haaland!

Our funds is essential to go all-in on Arsenal players as they face at home among the worst sides in English top-flight recent memory.

It's true, Manchester City smashed a total of five goals on their last away fixture, but now they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the league for goals conceded and fourth-best in terms of xGC.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the kind of match-up you must target - the leading team in the league against one devoid of form, quality and confidence.

This team of the week is picked using current FPL prices to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

Performance of The Previous Squad Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but strong hauls from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), along with a lucky 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

This long-awaited derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be loud, passionate, combative - and it might be one of those matches that is all drama but minimal goalmouth action.

Which would render Roefs, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent pick.

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

An Arsenal defender is a must for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal on the road this season and one in their last six fixtures.

White is a great attacking option when he is given his opportunity. He started the last two games at right-back, registered a 14-point haul against the Bees and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defensive players with two big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

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

The London club have the fourth-best defensive record while Cucurella has created more chances (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the division.

And he hasn't scored this season, after scoring five goals the previous campaign.

Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home)

You shouldn't have high hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have one all season - but Bournemouthgoals have slowed down in the last two games.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some very advanced roles as left wing-back in the last three games.

During that spell he's had four shots, two clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday too.

Midfield Picks

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

This fixture against Wolves is too good to pass up and that makes Saka, Arsenaltop offensive asset essential.

Little statistical analysis required to back this up. United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, netted four and could have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

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

More attacking this season, he's created more chances than any other Gunners player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for game time as Mikel Arteta could see this as a chance to rotate his squad.

Fernandes, United, £9m - the Cherries (h)

Fernandes might have replaced Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

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

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

This week's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first full 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he can be.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in.

He missed ChelseaChampions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.

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

Leeds come into this match following two strong home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three goals for every one they've scored.

This is likely Ouattara final fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He has been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has five attacking returns in his last 3 home matches.

Attack

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

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

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

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

It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds United.

He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.

The Bench

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