Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Players to Select v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

The big call in the FPL squad of the week involves opt for no Manchester City players - indeed, even Haaland!

Our funds is needed to load up on Gunners players as they welcome among the worst teams in English top-flight history.

Yes, Manchester City smashed a total of 5 goals on their most recent away trip, but now they meet Palace, a side with the second-strongest defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in terms of xGC.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the type of encounter you need to target - the leading team in the league against one devoid of form, quality and self-belief.

This team of the week is selected using current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Squad Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but strong hauls from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a lucky 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a huge 83 points total. Success!

FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

The first derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those matches that is all drama but minimal goalmouth action.

A scenario that would make Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

An Gunners defender is a must this week. Wolverhampton have one goal scored away from home this season and a single goal in their last six matches.

White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. He started the last two games at right-back, registered a 14-point return against Brentford and leads the charts in that time among Gunners defenders with 2 key passes, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (h)

Everton are unpredictable so this selection is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has generated more chances (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the division.

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

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

You can't have great expectations for a United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have dried up in the last two matches.

Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the past three games.

In those matches he's had four attempts, two clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolverhampton on Monday as well.

Midfield Picks

Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

This game against Wolverhampton is too good to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player essential.

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

Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.

Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)

Just a single point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is incredibly reliable for Arsenal.

More attacking this season, he's created more opportunities than any Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the surest bet for minutes as the manager might view this fixture as a chance to rest his players.

Fernandes, United, £9m - the Cherries (home)

The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

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

Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (home)

This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first full 90 minutes since returning after a long layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he can be.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to bring him in.

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

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (h)

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

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

He has been superb for the Bees this season, and has 5 goal contributions in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Attack

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

It's been a disappointing couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with just three points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has 7 goals in seven fixtures at home. He's the top striker choice for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget until the end of January at the very least.

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

Surely the manager continues to start with the promising striker, after his brace performance at Leeds United.

He performed well at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not been signed and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

Substitutes

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