🔗 Share this article Which Top 3 Gunners Players to Pick v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week One big move in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the gameweek is to select no City assets - and yes, that includes Haaland! The funds is required to go all-in on Arsenal players as they welcome among the worst sides in Premier League recent memory. Yes, City scored in five times on their most recent away fixture, but this time they face Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in terms of xGC. And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you need to attack - the best side in the division against one devoid of form, technical ability and confidence. The squad of the week is chosen using current FPL prices to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip. How did The Previous Team Do? No captain return but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), along with a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo led to a huge 83 points total. Boom! Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek for Fixture 16 Defensive Picks Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h) The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those matches that is all drama but minimal goalmouth action. Which would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent shout. Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home) An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored away from home so far and a single goal in their past six fixtures. Ben White is a fantastic offensive threat when he gets his chance. He started the last two at right-back, registered a 14-point haul against Brentford and tops the charts in that period among Arsenal defensive players with two key passes, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7. Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (home) Everton are erratic so this pick is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential. The London club have the fourth-best defence while he has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defender in the league. And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five times last season. Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home) You shouldn't have great expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the past two matches. Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the last 3 fixtures. In those matches he's had four attempts, two big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well. Midfield Picks Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home) This fixture against Wolves is too juicy to ignore and that renders Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'top attacking player a must-have. No stats required to support this pick. United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday, scored four and might have had twice as many. Arsenal will be keen to attack. Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h) One point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is so consistent for the Gunners. 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 minutes as Mikel Arteta could see this as a chance to rest his squad. Bruno Fernandes, United, £9m - the Cherries (home) Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset. Fixture-proof, always a candidate for defensive contribution points and with multiple routes to points. Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h) This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first full 90 minutes under his belt after a long injury and we know what an explosive fantasy player he can be. You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be flocking to bring him in. He was absent for the Blues'European defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for Everton. Dango Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds United (home) Leeds United enter this match following two great home results against the Blues and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three times for every one they've scored. This is probably Ouattara final fixture before heading to the AFCON. He has been excellent for the Bees this season, and has five attacking returns in his last 3 fixtures at home. Attack Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds United (home) It has been a frustrating couple of weeks for the striker owners, with just 3 FPL points in two games. However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the division and has seven strikes in 7 fixtures at home. He's the prime striker choice for this round and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold until the January window at least. Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton (h) Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the young Frenchman, after his brace haul at Leeds. He was great at the beginning of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for playing time at the number nine role.
