Which Three Gunners Picks to Pick v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek

One major move in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week is to go with zero Manchester City assets - and yes, even Erling Haaland!

The budget are needed to go all-in on Gunners players as they host among the worst sides in Premier League history.

It's true, City scored a total of five goals on their last away fixture, but now they meet Crystal Palace, a side with the second-strongest defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the sort of encounter you just have to attack - the leading side in the league against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.

This squad of the gameweek is selected based on current FPL prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

Performance of The Previous Squad Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo resulted in a monster 83 points. Success!

FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (h)

The first derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be loud, fiery, combative - and it may prove to be one of those tight matches that is full of tension but little clear chances.

A scenario that would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid pick.

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

An Gunners defender is a must this week. Wolverhampton have one goal scored on the road this season and one in their last six fixtures.

Ben White is a great offensive threat when he gets his chance. He started the last two at full-back, registered a 14-point return against the Bees and leads the charts in that time among Arsenal defensive players with two key passes, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

The Toffees are inconsistent so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-best defensive record while Cucurella has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any defender in the division.

And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five times last season.

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

You shouldn't have great hopes for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one all season - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the past two matches.

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

In those matches he's had 4 attempts, 2 big chances, one goal and an assist. He also missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday as well.

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolverhampton is too juicy to pass up and that makes Saka, Arsenaltop attacking player a must-have.

No stats required to support this pick. United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted four and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be licking their lips.

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

Just a single point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is so consistent for the Gunners.

With more license to attack this term, he's generated more chances than any Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to show for it.

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

Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h)

The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.

Match-up proof, always a candidate for defensive contribution points and with several routes to points.

Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes under his belt after a long injury and we know what an explosive FPL asset he can be.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has one good game, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up.

He was absent for ChelseaEuropean defeat at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for Everton.

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds United (h)

Leeds United come into this game off the back of two strong home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three times for every one they've scored.

This is likely Ouattara final fixture before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He has been excellent for the Bees this term, and has five goal contributions in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Forwards

Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It has been a frustrating last few weeks for Thiago owners, with only 3 FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second top scorer in the division and has seven goals in 7 fixtures at home. He is the best forward option for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can select and hold up until the end of January at least.

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

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the promising striker, after his brace performance at Leeds United.

He performed strongly at the beginning of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not arrived and competed with him for playing time at centre-forward.
