Selecting the Top 3 Arsenal Assets to Select v Wolverhampton? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek

One major decision in the Fantasy Premier League team of the week is to go with zero City assets - and yes, even Haaland!

The budget is needed to go all-in on Gunners assets as they welcome among the poorest sides in Premier League history.

Yes, Manchester City scored a total of five goals on their most recent away fixture, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals conceded and fourth-best in terms of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the type of fixture you need to target - the best team in the league against one lacking of form, technical ability and confidence.

This squad of the week is selected based on current prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

How did Last Week's Lineup Perform?

No captain return but big hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a monster eighty-three points total. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is going to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it could be one of those tight games that is all drama but minimal clear chances.

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

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

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

White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. He started the last two games at right-back, had a 14-point haul against the Bees and leads the way in that time among Gunners defensive players with two big chances created, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this pick is more about the Blues'defensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential.

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

And he is yet to score yet, having netted five goals the previous campaign.

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

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

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very advanced roles as a wing-back in the past three fixtures.

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

Midfield

Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to ignore and that makes Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset essential.

No stats needed to support this pick. United had 27 shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, scored four and could have had double that.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

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

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

With more license to attack this season, he's generated more opportunities than any Gunners player (27) and has five assists to his name.

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

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

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

Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)

This week's punt, Palmer has his first full 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 quickly as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be rushing to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'European defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be fresh for Everton.

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

Leeds come into this game following two strong home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three goals for every one they've netted.

This is probably the winger's final match before departing for the AFCON.

He's been outstanding for the Bees this season, and has five attacking returns in his past 3 home matches.

Forwards

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

It has been a disappointing last few gameweeks for the striker owners, with only three points in two games.

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

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

Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his brace haul at Leeds.

He was well at the start of the season and you wonder what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not arrived and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

Subs' Bench

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