Which Top 3 Arsenal Players to Choose v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek

One big move in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week is to go with zero City assets - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

Our budget are required to invest heavily on Arsenal players as they face at home among the poorest sides in Premier League history.

It's true, City smashed in 5 goals on their last away fixture, but now they meet Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the type of match-up you must attack - the best team in the division against one lacking of form, quality and confidence.

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

How did The Previous Team Fare?

No captain return but strong scores from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo produced a huge 83 points total. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be loud, passionate, combative - and it may prove to be one of those tight games that is all drama but little clear chances.

Which would make Roefs, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a must this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored on the road so far and a single goal in their last 6 fixtures.

Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. He started the past two at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and leads the way in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (home)

The Toffees are inconsistent so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-best defence while Cucurella has created more chances (19) than any other defensive player in the division.

And he hasn't scored yet, after scoring five goals last season.

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

You can't have high hopes for a United clean sheet - they have one all season - but Bournemouthgoals have dried up in the past two games.

Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly attacking positions as a wing-back in the last 3 games.

During that spell he's taken 4 shots, 2 big chances, one goal and one assist. He missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday as well.

Midfield Picks

Bukayo Saka (captain), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to ignore and that makes Saka, the Gunners'top attacking player essential.

Little statistical analysis needed to support this pick. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted four and might have had double that.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home)

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

With more license to attack this season, he's created more chances than any other Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager could see this as a opportunity to rotate his squad.

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

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

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

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy injury and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he is capable of being.

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

He missed ChelseaChampions League loss at Atalanta, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be fresh for Everton.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (h)

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

This is probably the winger's final fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He's been outstanding for Brentford this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his past 3 home matches.

Attack

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

It has been a disappointing last few gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with only 3 FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the league and has 7 strikes in 7 home games. He is the best striker choice for this round and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget until the January window at least.

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

It is expected that the manager continues to start with the promising striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds United.

He was strongly at the start of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for minutes at the number nine role.

Subs' Bench

• Martin Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
