Which Three Arsenal Picks to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Squad of the Gameweek

The big move in this FPL team of the week involves go with no City assets - indeed, even Haaland!

Our funds is needed to go all-in on Gunners players as they welcome among the poorest teams in Premier League history.

It's true, City scored in five times on their most recent away fixture, but this time they take on Palace, a side with the second-strongest defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in terms of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal hosting Wolves is the kind of match-up you need to attack - the top team in the division against one lacking of momentum, technical ability and self-belief.

The lineup of the week is picked based on current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Team Do?

No captain return but high hauls from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (fourteen), Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo resulted in a huge eighty-three points. Boom!

FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Defensive Picks

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is set to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

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

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

An Gunners defender is a must this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal away from home this season and a single goal in their last 6 matches.

White is a excellent attacking option when he is given his chance. Having started the last two at right-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and leads the way in that period among Arsenal defenders with 2 big chances created, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are unpredictable so this selection is more about the Blues'defensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while he has generated more chances (nineteen) than any defender in the league.

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

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

You shouldn't have great expectations for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have dried up in the past two games.

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

In those matches he's taken 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday as well.

Midfielders

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

This game against Wolves is too juicy to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player a must-have.

No stats needed to back this up. United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday, scored 4 and might have had double that.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

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

Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is incredibly reliable 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 surest bet for game time as the manager might view this fixture as a chance to rest his players.

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

Fernandes may have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.

Match-up proof, always a candidate for defensive bonus points and with multiple ways to points.

Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (h)

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

You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up.

He was absent for ChelseaChampions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be fresh for the Toffees.

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

Leeds United come into this match following two strong home results against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have let in three times for every one they've scored.

This is likely the winger's last fixture before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has five goal contributions in his last three fixtures at home.

Strikers

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

It has been a frustrating last few weeks for the striker owners, with just three points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest top scorer in the league and has 7 strikes in seven home games. He's the prime striker choice this week and, with a favourable run of games, you can set and forget until the January window at least.

Hugo Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h)

Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the young Frenchman, after his brace performance at Leeds.

He was great at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.

The Bench

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