Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Picks to Pick v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

One major decision in this FPL squad of the gameweek is to opt for no City players - and yes, that includes Haaland!

The funds is required to load up on Gunners assets as they face at home among the poorest sides in Premier League history.

Yes, City scored a total of five times on their last away fixture, but now they meet Palace, a side with the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the type of match-up you need to target - the top side in the league against one lacking of momentum, quality and confidence.

This team of the gameweek is chosen based on current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Lineup Do?

The captain didn't deliver but strong scores from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance produced a monster 83 points total. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Defensive Picks

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is set to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it might be one of those tight games 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.

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolves have one goal on the road so far and one in their past 6 fixtures.

Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. Having started the last two at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against the Bees and leads the charts in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 key passes, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (home)

Everton are erratic so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefence and Cucurella potential.

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

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

Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (h)

You can't have great hopes for a United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the last two games.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some very advanced roles as left wing-back in the last 3 fixtures.

During that spell he's taken 4 shots, two clear opportunities, one goal and one assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolves on Monday night as well.

Midfielders

Saka (C), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolves (home)

This fixture against Wolves is too good to ignore and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player a must-have.

No stats needed to support this pick. United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolves on Monday night, netted 4 and might have had double that.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

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

One point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is incredibly reliable for Arsenal.

With more license to attack this term, he's created more chances than any Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the most reliable for game time as the manager might view this as a chance to rotate his squad.

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the essential FPL midfielder.

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

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

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first full 90 minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring fantasy player 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'European defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.

Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds United (home)

Leeds United come into this match following two great home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but on the road they have conceded three goals for every one they've netted.

This is probably the winger's last fixture before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.

He has been outstanding for the Bees this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Forwards

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)

It's been a disappointing couple of gameweeks for the striker FPL managers, with just three FPL points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the division and has seven strikes in seven home games. He is the best striker choice this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold until the January window at least.

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

It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the young striker, after his brace haul at Leeds United.

He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for minutes at the number nine role.
