Which Three Arsenal Picks to Choose v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

The big decision in this Fantasy Premier League squad of the gameweek involves opt for no City players - and yes, even Haaland!

The funds are required to go all-in on Arsenal players as they host among the most struggling sides in Premier League history.

Yes, City scored a total of 5 goals on their last away trip, but this time they face Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolves is the kind of fixture you must attack - the leading side in the division against one devoid of form, technical ability and self-belief.

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

How did The Previous Squad Fare?

The captain didn't deliver but strong scores from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Phil Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo produced a huge eighty-three points total. Success!

FPL Team of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Defensive Picks

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

This long-awaited derby in the Premier League for eight years is likely to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it could be one of those matches that is all drama but minimal clear chances.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

An Gunners defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored on the road this season and a single goal in their last six fixtures.

Ben White is a excellent attacking option when he gets his opportunity. He started the last two at full-back, registered a 14-point haul against Brentford and leads the way in that time among Gunners defenders with two big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this pick is focused more on Chelseadefence and Cucurella upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-best defensive record while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (19) than any defensive player in the division.

And he is yet to score this season, having netted five times the previous campaign.

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

You can't have great hopes for a United shutout - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'goals have dried up in the last two matches.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the last 3 fixtures.

In those matches he's taken four shots, 2 big chances, a goal and one assist. He missed a great opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfield

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

This game against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenaltop attacking player a must-have.

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

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

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

One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is incredibly reliable for Arsenal.

More attacking this term, he's created more opportunities than any Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the surest bet for minutes as Mikel Arteta could see this fixture as a opportunity to rest his squad.

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

Fernandes might have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

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

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

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a long layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be rushing to bring him in.

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

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

Leeds come into this game following two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but away from home they have conceded three times for each one they've scored.

This is likely the winger's last fixture before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

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

Strikers

Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It's been a frustrating last few weeks for the striker FPL managers, with only three FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second goal scorer in the division and has 7 goals in seven fixtures at home. He's the prime forward option this week and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold up until the end of January at least.

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

It is expected that the manager continues to start with the promising striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds.

He was strongly at the beginning 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 minutes at the number nine role.

The Bench

• Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
