Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Assets to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Lineup of the Week
One key call in the FPL lineup of the week is to opt for no City assets - and yes, that includes Erling Haaland!
Our budget is essential to go all-in on Arsenal assets as they host among the worst teams in Premier League recent memory.
Yes, City smashed a total of 5 goals on their last away fixture, but this time they face Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.
And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the kind of match-up you just have to exploit - the leading side in the division against one lacking of form, quality and self-belief.
This squad of the gameweek is selected using current prices 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 strong scores from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), along with a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance resulted in a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!
Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week for Fixture 16
Keeper and Defence
Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)
The first derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be loud, passionate, combative - and it might be one of those tight matches that is full of tension but little clear chances.
Which would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid shout.
White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h)
An Gunners defensive asset is a must this week. Wolves have one goal scored away from home this season and a single goal in their past six fixtures.
Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. Having started the last two games at full-back, had a fourteen-point return against Brentford and leads the charts in that time among Gunners defensive players with 2 big chances created, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.
Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
Everton are inconsistent so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's potential.
Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has generated more chances (19) than any defender in the league.
And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five goals the previous campaign.
Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)
You shouldn't have great expectations for a United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the last two games.
Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the past three games.
During that spell he's taken 4 attempts, two clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He also missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday night too.
Midfield Picks
Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
This game against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset a must-have.
No stats required to back this up. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted 4 and might have had twice as many.
Arsenal will be licking their lips.
Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (home)
Just a single point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is so reliable for the Gunners.
More attacking this term, he's created more chances than any Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to show for it.
He's also the most reliable for minutes as Mikel Arteta could see this fixture as a chance to rest his squad.
Fernandes, United, £9m - Bournemouth (home)
Fernandes may have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.
Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive bonus points and with several ways to points.
Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (home)
This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy injury and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.
You get the feeling that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be rushing to bring him in.
He missed ChelseaEuropean defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he should be fresh for the Toffees.
Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds United (home)
Leeds United enter this game off the back of two great home performances against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three goals for every one they've netted.
This is likely the winger's last fixture before departing for the AFCON.
He's been outstanding for Brentford this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his past 3 home matches.
Attack
Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (home)
It's been a disappointing couple of weeks for Thiago owners, with only three points in two matches.
Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has 7 goals in 7 home games. He is the prime striker choice for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold up until the January window at least.
Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)
Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.
He was well at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.
Substitutes
- Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
