Which Top 3 Arsenal Assets to Select v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek
One key call in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the gameweek is to select zero City players - indeed, that includes Erling Haaland!
The funds are essential to invest heavily on Gunners players as they face at home one of the most struggling teams in English top-flight history.
It's true, City smashed a total of five goals on their most recent away trip, but this time they meet Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the league for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.
And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you need to target - the best side in the league against one lacking of momentum, technical ability and confidence.
The lineup of the gameweek is chosen using current FPL prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.
How did The Previous Squad Perform?
The captain didn't deliver but strong points from Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a monster eighty-three points total. Success!
Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week for Fixture 16
Defensive Picks
Robin Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (h)
The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it might be one of those matches that is full of tension but little clear chances.
Which would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid pick.
White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h)
An Gunners defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have one goal scored away from home so far and one in their past 6 matches.
Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. Having started the last two games at right-back, had a 14-point haul against the Bees and tops the way in that time among Arsenal defenders with two big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.
Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (home)
Everton are inconsistent so this pick is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's upside.
Chelsea have the fourth-best defensive record while he has created more chances (19) than any other defensive player in the division.
And he hasn't scored yet, after scoring five goals last season.
Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)
You shouldn't have great expectations for a United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the last two matches.
Crucially, Dalot has been getting in some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the past 3 games.
During that spell he's taken 4 shots, two big chances, a goal and one assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday as well.
Midfield Picks
Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (home)
This fixture against Wolverhampton is too good to pass up and that renders Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset essential.
Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolves on Monday, netted four and could have had double that.
The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.
Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (h)
One point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is so reliable for the Gunners.
More attacking this season, he's created more opportunities than any Arsenal teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.
He's also the surest bet for game time as Mikel Arteta could see this as a opportunity to rotate his players.
Bruno Fernandes, United, £9m - Bournemouth (home)
Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.
Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive bonus points and with multiple ways to FPL returns.
Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (home)
This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he is capable of being.
You sense that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in.
He missed the Blues'European defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he should be fresh for the Toffees.
Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds United (home)
Leeds enter this match following two strong home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three times for every one they've scored.
This is likely the winger's last fixture before heading to the AFCON.
He has been superb for the Bees this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his past three home matches.
Strikers
Igor Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)
It's been a frustrating couple of weeks for the striker owners, with only three FPL points in two games.
However, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has 7 goals in 7 fixtures at home. He's the prime striker choice for this round and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget until the end of January at least.
Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h)
Surely the manager keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his brace haul at Leeds.
He was well at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.
The Bench
- Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
