Which Top 3 Gunners Picks to Choose v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek

One key call in this FPL lineup of the gameweek is to go with no Manchester City players - and yes, that includes Haaland!

Our budget are needed to go all-in on Gunners players as they face at home among the worst teams in Premier League recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City smashed in 5 goals on their most recent away trip, but this time they meet Crystal 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 Wolves is the kind of encounter you must attack - the top side in the division against one lacking of form, technical ability and self-belief.

The team of the week is selected based on current FPL prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.

How did Last Week's Lineup Fare?

No captain return but big hauls from Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo resulted in a huge 83 points total. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

This long-awaited derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be loud, fiery, feisty - and it could be one of those tight matches that is full of tension but minimal goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render Roefs, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid pick.

Ben White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

An Gunners defender is a must for this fixture. Wolves have one goal scored away from home so far and one in their last 6 matches.

White is a excellent attacking option when he is given his chance. He started the last two games at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and leads the way in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 key passes, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

Everton are inconsistent so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while he has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any defensive player in the division.

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

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

You can't have great expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthgoals have slowed down in the last two matches.

Crucially, Dalot has been getting in some incredibly attacking positions as a wing-back in the past 3 games.

During that spell he's had four attempts, 2 big chances, one goal and one assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday too.

Midfielders

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

This game against Wolverhampton is too good to pass up and that renders Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player a must-have.

Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday night, scored four and might have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

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

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

More advanced this season, he's generated more chances than any Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the surest bet for game time as Mikel Arteta might view this as a chance to rest his squad.

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

Fernandes might have taken over from Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.

Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive bonus points and with several routes to points.

Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This week's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first full 90 minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we are aware what an explosive fantasy player he can be.

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

He missed the Blues'European loss at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.

Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)

Leeds United enter this game off the back of two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three times for each one they've scored.

This is likely Ouattara last match before heading to the AFCON.

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

Attack

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (home)

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

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

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

Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He performed well 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 the number nine role.

The Bench

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