Which Three Arsenal Assets to Choose v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek
The major move in the FPL team of the gameweek involves go with zero Manchester City assets - and yes, that includes Haaland!
Our budget are essential to go all-in on Gunners assets as they welcome among the poorest teams in English top-flight history.
Yes, City scored in five goals on their most recent away fixture, but this time they face Palace, who have the second-best defence in the league for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.
And Arsenal hosting Wolves is the kind of encounter you just have to attack - the best team in the division against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.
This team of the gameweek is picked using current prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.
How did Last Week's Lineup Perform?
No captain return but big scores from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a monster 83 points total. Success!
Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16
Goalkeeper & Defenders
Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)
This long-awaited derby in the top flight for eight years is set to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those tight games that is full of tension but minimal clear chances.
A scenario that would make the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent pick.
Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
An Gunners defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have one goal scored on the road so far and one in their last six fixtures.
White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. He started the last two games at full-back, registered a fourteen-point return against the Bees and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defensive players with two big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
Everton are erratic so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and Cucurella upside.
The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while he has created more chances (19) than any other defensive player in the division.
And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five goals the previous campaign.
Diogo Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)
You shouldn't have high expectations for a United clean sheet - they have one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the past two matches.
Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the last three games.
During that spell he's taken 4 attempts, two clear opportunities, one goal and one assist. He also missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday as well.
Midfielders
Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
This game against Wolverhampton is too juicy to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'top offensive asset essential.
Little statistical analysis needed to support this pick. United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday, netted 4 and might have had double that.
The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.
Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home)
Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, 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 show for it.
He's also the most reliable for minutes as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a chance to rotate his players.
Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (h)
Fernandes may have replaced Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.
Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive bonus points and with several ways to FPL returns.
Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (h)
This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he can be.
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'Champions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for the Toffees.
Dango Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (home)
Leeds United come into this game following two great home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three times for every one they've scored.
This is probably the winger's last fixture before heading to the AFCON.
He's been outstanding for the Bees this season, and has 5 goal contributions in his last 3 home matches.
Strikers
Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)
It's been a disappointing last few weeks for Thiago FPL managers, with only 3 points in two matches.
Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the league and has seven goals in 7 home games. He's the best striker choice for this round and, with a favourable fixture list, you can set and forget until the end of January at least.
Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton (home)
It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds United.
He performed well at the start of the season and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.
The Bench
- Martin Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
