Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Players to Choose v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek

The major call in the Fantasy Premier League squad of the gameweek involves opt for zero City players - and yes, even Erling Haaland!

The funds is required to go all-in on Gunners assets as they host one of the worst sides in English top-flight recent memory.

Yes, City smashed in five times on their most recent away fixture, but this time they face Crystal Palace, a side with the second-strongest defence in the league for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of xGC.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the kind of fixture you just have to target - the best team in the division against one lacking of form, quality and self-belief.

This team of the gameweek is chosen using current FPL prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.

Performance of Last Week's Team Perform?

No captain return but high scores from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week for Fixture 16

Defensive Picks

Roefs, the Black Cats, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (h)

The first derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it could be one of those tight games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have one goal on the road so far and a single goal in their last 6 fixtures.

White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. He started the past two games at right-back, had a 14-point haul against the Bees and leads the charts in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (h)

The Toffees are erratic so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has created more chances (19) than any defensive player in the league.

And he is yet to score this season, after scoring five goals the previous campaign.

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

You shouldn't have high expectations for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one all season - but Bournemouthgoals have dried up in the last two games.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the last three fixtures.

During that spell he's had 4 attempts, 2 big chances, one goal and one assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolves on Monday night as well.

Midfield

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

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too juicy to pass up and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset a must-have.

Little statistical analysis needed to back this up. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolves on Monday, netted 4 and might have had double that.

Arsenal will be keen to attack.

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

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

More attacking this season, he's created more opportunities than any Gunners teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the most reliable for game time as the manager might view this as a chance to rest his squad.

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Semenyo as the essential FPL midfielder.

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

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

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'Champions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for Everton.

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

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

This is probably Ouattara final fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He has been excellent for the Bees this season, and has 5 attacking returns in his past three fixtures at home.

Forwards

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

It's been a disappointing couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with just 3 FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second goal scorer in the division and has 7 goals in 7 home games. He is the prime striker choice this week and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold until the January window at least.

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

It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He was great at the beginning of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and challenged him for playing time at centre-forward.

Subs' Bench

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