🔗 Share this article Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Players to Pick v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week The major call in this Fantasy Premier League team of the week involves go with no City players - and yes, that includes Haaland! The budget are required to go all-in on Arsenal assets as they welcome one of the most struggling teams in English top-flight history. It's true, City smashed a total of 5 goals on their most recent away fixture, but now they meet Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in terms of xGC. And the Gunners hosting Wolves is the type of match-up you must attack - the leading team in the league against one devoid of form, quality and self-belief. This lineup of the week is picked based on current FPL prices to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit. How did The Previous Team Do? The captain didn't deliver but strong points from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a huge eighty-three points. Success! Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week for Gameweek 16 Keeper and Defence Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home) This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be loud, passionate, combative - and it might be one of those matches that is all drama but minimal goalmouth action. Which would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a good option. White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolves (h) An Gunners defender is a must for this fixture. Wolves have one goal on the road so far and one in their last six fixtures. Ben White is a great offensive threat when he is given his opportunity. He started the past two games at full-back, registered a 14-point haul against Brentford and tops the way in that time among Arsenal defenders with 2 big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7. Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home) The Toffees are inconsistent so this selection is more about the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's potential. Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has created more opportunities (19) than any defender in the division. And he hasn't scored yet, after scoring five goals the previous campaign. Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home) You shouldn't have high hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the past two matches. Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some very advanced roles as left wing-back in the past three games. In those matches he's had four shots, 2 big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night too. Midfield Picks Saka (C), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home) This fixture against Wolves is too juicy to pass up and that renders Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player a must-have. No stats needed to support this pick. United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday night, scored 4 and could have had twice as many. Arsenal will be keen to attack. Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home) One point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is so consistent for Arsenal. More advanced this term, he's generated more chances than any other Gunners player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it. He's also the surest bet for minutes as the manager could see this as a opportunity to rest his squad. Bruno Fernandes, United, £9m - Bournemouth (h) Fernandes may have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset. Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with several ways to points. Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (h) This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy injury and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being. You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in. He missed ChelseaEuropean loss at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be fresh for Everton. Dango Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds United (h) Leeds United come into this game off the back of two strong home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three goals for each one they've netted. This is probably the winger's last fixture before heading to the AFCON. He has been outstanding for Brentford this term, and has five attacking returns in his past three home matches. Strikers Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds United (home) It's been a frustrating last few weeks for the striker FPL managers, with just three FPL points in two games. However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the division and has 7 strikes in 7 home games. He is the prime forward option for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget up until the January window at the very least. Hugo Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home) It is expected that Arne Slot continues to start with the young Frenchman, after his two-goal performance at Leeds United. He performed great at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not been signed and competed with him for playing time at the number nine role. Substitutes Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
