Selecting the Three Gunners Picks to Pick v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek

The major decision in this FPL squad of the gameweek is to go with no City players - indeed, even Haaland!

The funds is required to load up on Gunners assets as they welcome among the poorest sides in English top-flight recent memory.

It's true, City smashed in 5 goals on their most recent away fixture, but this time they meet Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in terms of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the type of match-up you must attack - the top team in the division against one lacking of form, technical ability and confidence.

The lineup of the gameweek is chosen using current valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Team Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but big points from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a massive eighty-three points. Boom!

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 Premier League since 2016 is going to be loud, passionate, combative - and it might be one of those matches that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

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

Ben White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolves (h)

An Gunners defensive asset is a must for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal on the road so far and a single goal in their last 6 matches.

Ben White is a fantastic attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the last two at right-back, had a 14-point haul against the Bees and leads the way in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are inconsistent so this pick is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-best defence while Cucurella has created more chances (19) than any other defensive player in the division.

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

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

You shouldn't have great hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one all season - but Bournemouthgoals have dried up in the last two games.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some incredibly attacking positions as left wing-back in the last 3 fixtures.

During that spell he's taken four shots, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and one assist. He also missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday as well.

Midfielders

Saka (C), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to ignore and that renders Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player a must-have.

Little statistical analysis needed to back this up. Manchester United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted 4 and could have had double that.

Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.

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

One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is so reliable for Arsenal.

More attacking this season, he's generated more chances than any other Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the surest bet for minutes as Mikel Arteta could see this fixture as a chance to rest his players.

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

Fernandes might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

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

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

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

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.

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

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)

Leeds United come into this game off the back of two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have conceded three times for every one they've scored.

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

He has been excellent for the Bees this season, and has 5 attacking returns in his past three home matches.

Forwards

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

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

However, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has seven goals in seven home games. He is the best forward option this week and, with a favourable fixture list, you can set and forget up until the January window at the very least.

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

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

He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had Alexander Isak not arrived and competed with him for playing time at the number nine role.

Substitutes

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