Which Three Gunners Picks to Select v Wolverhampton? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek

The big move in the FPL team of the week involves opt for zero Manchester City players - and yes, that includes Erling Haaland!

Our funds are needed to invest heavily on Gunners players as they face at home among the most struggling sides in English top-flight history.

It's true, Manchester City smashed in five times on their most recent away fixture, but this time they take on Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the sort of match-up you need to attack - the best team in the league against one lacking of form, quality and self-belief.

This team of the week is picked using current valuations to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

How did Last Week's Lineup Fare?

The captain didn't deliver but high scores from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a monster eighty-three points. Boom!

FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

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

The first derby in the Premier League since 2016 is set to be loud, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those tight games that is full of tension but minimal clear chances.

Which would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good shout.

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a must for this fixture. Wolves have just one goal scored on the road so far and one in their past six matches.

White is a great offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. He started the past two at full-back, registered a 14-point haul against Brentford and tops the way in that period among Gunners defensive players with 2 big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are erratic so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (19) than any other defender in the division.

And he is yet to score this season, having netted five goals the previous campaign.

Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)

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

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the past three games.

In those matches he's taken four attempts, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday too.

Midfield Picks

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

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

Little statistical analysis needed to back this up. United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted 4 and could have had double that.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

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

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

With more license to attack this term, he's generated more opportunities 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 the manager could see this fixture as a chance to rotate his players.

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

Fernandes might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

Match-up proof, consistently a candidate for defensive contribution points and with multiple ways to FPL returns.

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

This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a long layoff and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

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

He missed the Blues'Champions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for Everton.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (home)

Leeds United come into this match following two great home performances against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three goals for each one they've netted.

This is probably the winger's last match before heading to the AFCON.

He has been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has five goal contributions in his past 3 home matches.

Strikers

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

It has been a disappointing couple of weeks for the striker FPL managers, with only 3 FPL points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has 7 strikes in seven fixtures at home. He is the best striker choice this week and, with a favourable run of games, you can select and hold until the January window at least.

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

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the promising Frenchman, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He performed well at the start of the season and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for minutes at the number nine role.

Substitutes

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