Which Three Arsenal Picks to Pick v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week

One key move in this FPL team of the week is to select zero Manchester City players - indeed, that includes Haaland!

The funds is essential to invest heavily on Arsenal players as they welcome among the poorest sides in English top-flight history.

Yes, City smashed a total of 5 times on their most recent away fixture, but now they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of xGC.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you must target - the best team in the division against one devoid of form, quality and confidence.

This squad of the week is selected using current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Team Fare?

The captain didn't deliver but high scores from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo led to a massive eighty-three points total. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week for Fixture 16

Defensive Picks

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those games that is full of tension but little clear chances.

Which would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid pick.

White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolves (h)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolves have just one goal away from home so far and one in their past six matches.

White is a fantastic attacking option when he is given his chance. Having started the past two games at full-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and tops 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.

Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (h)

Everton are inconsistent so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefence and Cucurella upside.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has created more opportunities (19) than any other defender in the division.

And he is yet to score yet, after scoring five goals the previous campaign.

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

You can't have great hopes for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the last two matches.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the past three games.

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

Midfielders

Saka (C), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolves (home)

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too good to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset essential.

No stats needed to back this up. United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted 4 and could have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

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

More attacking this season, he's generated more opportunities than any Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the surest bet for game time as Mikel Arteta could see this as a opportunity to rotate his squad.

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

Fernandes may have replaced Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.

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

Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (home)

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a lengthy layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.

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

He was absent for the Blues'Champions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he ought to be fresh for the Toffees.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (home)

Leeds enter this match off the back of two great home performances against Chelsea and Liverpool, but on the road they have conceded three goals for every one they've scored.

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

He's been excellent for Brentford this season, and has five attacking returns in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Strikers

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

It's been a frustrating last few gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with only 3 points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the league and has 7 strikes in 7 home games. He's the top forward option this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget until the January window at the very least.

Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)

It is expected that the manager continues to start with the young striker, after his brace performance at Leeds United.

He performed great at the start of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not been signed and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.
