Selecting the Three Arsenal Picks to Choose v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek

The key call in this Fantasy Premier League squad of the week involves opt for no Manchester City players - indeed, that includes Erling Haaland!

Our budget is required to invest heavily on Gunners players as they welcome one of the worst sides in English top-flight recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City smashed a total of five times on their most recent away trip, but this time they meet Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the sort of fixture you must target - the leading team in the division against one lacking of momentum, technical ability and confidence.

This lineup of the gameweek is picked using current FPL prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Lineup Do?

The captain didn't deliver but big hauls from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo resulted in a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!

FPL Squad of the Week for Gameweek 16

Keeper and Defence

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

The first derby in the Premier League for eight years is likely to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those tight games that is all drama but little clear chances.

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

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

An Gunners defender is a must this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored on the road so far and a single goal in their last 6 fixtures.

White is a fantastic offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. He started the past two at right-back, registered a 14-point return against the Bees and tops the charts in that time among Gunners defenders with two big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (h)

Everton are erratic so this pick is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

The London club have the fourth-best defensive record while he has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any defensive player in the division.

And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five goals the previous campaign.

Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (h)

You can't have high hopes for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the last two matches.

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

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

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolverhampton is too good to ignore and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset a must-have.

No stats needed to back this up. United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, scored four and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be licking their lips.

Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

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

With more license to attack 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 surest bet for minutes as the manager could see this as a chance to rotate his players.

Fernandes, United, £9m - the Cherries (h)

The Portuguese playmaker may have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

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

Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This week's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be rushing to bring him in.

He missed ChelseaChampions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for the Toffees.

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

Leeds enter this match off the back of two great home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but away from home they have conceded three times for every one they've netted.

This is likely the winger's last fixture before departing for the AFCON.

He's been superb for the Bees this season, and has 5 goal contributions in his past three home matches.

Strikers

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

It's been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with only 3 points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the league and has seven goals in seven home games. He's the top striker choice this week and, with a favourable fixture list, you can set and forget up until the January window at the very least.

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

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the young Frenchman, after his brace performance at Leeds United.

He performed great at the beginning of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not been signed and challenged him for playing time at centre-forward.

Substitutes

• Martin Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
