Which Three Arsenal Players to Choose v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week

One major call in the Fantasy Premier League squad of the week is to select no Manchester City players - and yes, that includes Erling Haaland!

Our funds is essential to invest heavily on Gunners players as they host one of the most struggling teams in Premier League history.

It's true, Manchester City smashed in five goals on their last away fixture, but now they face Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the sort of fixture you must target - the top side in the league against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.

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 Fare?

No captain return but high scores from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (9), along with a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance resulted in a massive eighty-three points. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)

This long-awaited derby in the top flight for eight years is going to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it could be one of those tight games that is full of tension but little clear chances.

A scenario that would make Roefs, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent pick.

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolves have one goal scored away from home so far and a single goal in their past 6 fixtures.

Ben White is a fantastic offensive threat when he gets his chance. Having started the last two at full-back, had a 14-point return against Brentford and tops the way in that time among Gunners defenders with two key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (home)

Everton are unpredictable so this selection is more about the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's potential.

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

And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five times the previous campaign.

Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home)

You can't have high expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have dried up in the past two games.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the last 3 games.

In those matches he's had 4 shots, two clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He also missed a cracking chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well.

Midfield

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

This game against Wolves is too juicy to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player a must-have.

Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted four and could have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

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

One point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is so reliable for Arsenal.

More advanced this term, he's created more opportunities than any Gunners player (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the surest bet for game time as the manager could see this fixture as a opportunity to rest his players.

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

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

Fixture-proof, consistently a candidate for defensive bonus points and with several ways to points.

Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (h)

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first 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 quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in.

He missed the Blues'European defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be fresh for Everton.

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

Leeds enter this game off the back of two strong home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three goals for every one they've netted.

This is likely the winger's last fixture before heading to the AFCON.

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

Attack

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)

It has been a frustrating last few gameweeks for the striker owners, with only 3 points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has seven strikes in 7 home games. He is the prime forward option for this round and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold until the end of January at the very least.

Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton (home)

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the young striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He performed great at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for minutes at the number nine role.
