Which Top 3 Gunners Assets to Choose v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek

The big move in the Fantasy Premier League squad of the gameweek is to go with zero City assets - and yes, that includes Erling Haaland!

The budget are needed to go all-in on Gunners assets as they welcome one of the poorest teams in Premier League history.

It's true, City scored a total of 5 times on their last away fixture, but now they face Palace, who have the second-best defence in the league for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the kind of fixture you must exploit - the top team in the division against one devoid of momentum, quality and self-belief.

This team of the gameweek is selected based on current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did Last Week's Lineup Perform?

No captain return but big points from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a massive eighty-three points total. Success!

FPL Squad of the Week for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is likely to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those tight matches that is full of tension but little clear chances.

A scenario that would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a good shout.

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

An Arsenal defender is a must for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored on the road this season and one in their past 6 fixtures.

Ben White is a great attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the past two games at right-back, registered a 14-point return against the Bees and leads the way in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 key passes, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

Everton are inconsistent so this pick is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-best defence while he has created more opportunities (19) than any other defender in the league.

And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five times last season.

Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)

You can't have great hopes for a United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the past two games.

Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some very advanced roles as left wing-back in the past 3 games.

In those matches he's taken four shots, two clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolves on Monday too.

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset a must-have.

No stats required to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, netted 4 and might have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

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

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

More attacking this term, he's generated more opportunities than any other Arsenal player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.

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

Fernandes, United, £9m - Bournemouth (h)

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

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

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

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first full 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy injury and we are aware what an explosive FPL asset he is capable of being.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be flocking to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'European defeat at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for the Toffees.

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)

Leeds come into this match off the back of two strong home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but on the road they have conceded three goals for every one they've scored.

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

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

Forwards

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

It's been a frustrating last few weeks for Thiago FPL managers, with just 3 points in two games.

However, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has seven strikes in seven fixtures at home. He's the prime forward option for this round and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget until the January window at least.

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

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

He was well at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.
