Selecting the Three Gunners Players to Choose v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek
One key decision in this FPL team of the gameweek involves go with zero Manchester City players - indeed, even Erling Haaland!
Our funds is essential to load up on Arsenal assets as they host among the most struggling sides in Premier League history.
It's true, City smashed a total of 5 times on their last away fixture, but now they take on Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.
And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the sort of fixture you just have to attack - the leading team in the league against one devoid of form, technical ability and confidence.
This team of the week is picked based on current valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.
How did Last Week's Squad Perform?
No captain return but strong points from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), along with a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance resulted in a massive eighty-three points. Success!
FPL Lineup of the Week for Fixture 16
Keeper and Defence
Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)
This long-awaited derby in the top flight for eight years is likely to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it might be one of those games that is full of tension but little clear chances.
Which would make the Sunderland keeper, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a good shout.
Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h)
An Arsenal defensive asset is a must this week. Wolverhampton have one goal scored away from home this season and a single goal in their last 6 fixtures.
Ben White is a great offensive threat when he gets his chance. Having started the last two games at right-back, registered a 14-point return against Brentford and tops the charts in that period among Arsenal defensive players with two big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
The Toffees are erratic so this selection is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's upside.
The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defender in the division.
And he hasn't scored yet, after scoring five times last season.
Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)
You can't have high hopes for a United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthgoals have slowed down in the past two matches.
More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some very advanced roles as a wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.
During that spell he's taken four attempts, two clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He also missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well.
Midfielders
Bukayo Saka (captain), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that makes Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player a must-have.
Little statistical analysis required to back this up. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, netted four and might have had twice as many.
The Gunners 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 incredibly consistent for the Gunners.
More advanced this term, he's generated more chances than any Arsenal player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.
He's also the most reliable for minutes as Mikel Arteta could see this as a opportunity to rest his players.
Fernandes, United, £9m - Bournemouth (home)
The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the essential FPL midfielder.
Match-up proof, consistently a candidate for defensive contribution points and with several routes to FPL returns.
Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)
This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first full 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he can be.
You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up.
He was absent for ChelseaEuropean defeat at Atalanta, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for Everton.
Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (h)
Leeds enter this game off the back of two strong home results against the Blues and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three times for each one they've scored.
This is probably the winger's final fixture before departing for the AFCON.
He's been excellent for Brentford this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his last 3 home matches.
Attack
Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)
It's been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker FPL managers, with just 3 points in two games.
Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has 7 strikes in seven home games. He is the best 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.
Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h)
It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the young striker, after his brace haul at Leeds.
He performed well at the start of the season and you wonder what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not been signed and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.
Subs' Bench
- Martin Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
