Selecting the Top 3 Arsenal Picks to Choose v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

One big call in the Fantasy Premier League squad of the week involves go with no City assets - and yes, that includes Erling Haaland!

The funds is required to load up on Arsenal assets as they face at home among the most struggling sides in English top-flight recent memory.

It's true, Manchester City smashed a total of five goals on their last away fixture, but this time they meet Palace, who have the second-best defence in the league for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in terms of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the sort of fixture you just have to exploit - the leading side in the division against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.

The squad of the week is picked using current prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Squad Do?

The captain didn't deliver but high points from Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a huge eighty-three points. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is likely to be loud, fiery, feisty - and it could be one of those matches that is full of tension but little clear chances.

Which would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent pick.

Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h)

An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have one goal scored on the road so far and a single goal in their past 6 fixtures.

White is a excellent attacking option when he gets his opportunity. He started the past two games at right-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the way in that time among Arsenal defenders with two big chances created, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are erratic so this selection is focused more on the Blues'defensive solidity and the Spaniard's upside.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has generated more chances (19) than any other defensive player in the division.

And he hasn't scored this season, after scoring five times last season.

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

You shouldn't have high expectations for a United shutout - they have one all season - but Bournemouthscoring have dried up in the past two matches.

Crucially, Dalot has been getting in some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the past 3 games.

During that spell he's taken 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and one assist. He also missed a cracking opportunity at Wolves on Monday too.

Midfield

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

This game against Wolves is too juicy to pass up and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset a must-have.

Little statistical analysis needed to back this up. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, scored 4 and could have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is so reliable for Arsenal.

More advanced this term, he's generated more chances than any other Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

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

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

Fixture-proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with multiple ways to FPL returns.

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

This gameweek's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.

You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be flocking to sign him up.

He was absent for the Blues'Champions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be fresh for the Toffees.

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

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

This is probably Ouattara last fixture before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been excellent for the Bees this term, and has five attacking returns in his past three home matches.

Forwards

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

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

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has seven goals in seven fixtures at home. He's the top striker choice this week and, with a favourable run of games, you can set and forget up until the January window at least.

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

Surely the manager keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his brace performance at Leeds United.

He performed 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 centre-forward.

Substitutes

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