Which Three Arsenal Players to Select v Wolves? FPL Team of the Week

One big move in this FPL lineup of the gameweek involves opt for zero Manchester City players - indeed, that includes Haaland!

Our funds is essential to go all-in on Gunners players as they welcome among the most struggling teams in Premier League history.

Yes, City smashed in five goals on their last away fixture, but now they meet Palace, a side with the second-strongest defence in the league for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in terms of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolves is the sort of encounter you just have to exploit - the leading team in the league against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.

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

How did Last Week's Lineup Fare?

No captain return but strong hauls from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo led to a massive 83 points. Boom!

FPL Team of the Week for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those tight matches that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

Which would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have just one goal scored on the road this season and one in their last six matches.

White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. He started the past two games at full-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and tops the charts in that time among Gunners defensive players with 2 big chances created, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

Everton are inconsistent so this selection is more about the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's upside.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the league.

And he is yet to score yet, having netted five times last season.

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

You shouldn't have high hopes for a United clean sheet - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'goals have dried up in the past two matches.

Crucially, Dalot has been getting in some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.

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

Midfield

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

This game against Wolverhampton is too tempting to pass up and that makes Saka, Arsenaltop offensive asset a must-have.

Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, scored four and could have had double that.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

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

Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is so reliable for Arsenal.

More advanced this season, he's created more chances than any Gunners teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the most reliable for game time as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his squad.

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

Fernandes might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive bonus points and with multiple routes to FPL returns.

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

This week's punt, Palmer has his first full 90 minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.

You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be rushing to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'European loss at Atalanta, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he ought to be fresh for the Toffees.

Dango Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds United (h)

Leeds come into this match off the back of two strong home performances against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have conceded three goals for every one they've scored.

This is probably Ouattara last fixture before departing for the AFCON.

He's been excellent for the Bees this season, and has 5 goal contributions in his last three fixtures at home.

Strikers

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

It's been a frustrating last few weeks for Thiago FPL managers, with only 3 points in two matches.

However, he's the second top scorer in the league and has seven strikes in seven home games. He is the top striker choice this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget until the end of January at the very least.

Hugo Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)

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

He was great at the beginning of the season and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not been signed and competed with him for playing time at centre-forward.

Substitutes
