🔗 Share this article Selecting the Three Arsenal Assets to Pick v Wolverhampton? FPL Squad of the Week One major decision in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the gameweek involves opt for zero Manchester City players - and yes, that includes Haaland! Our funds is required to load up on Arsenal players as they face at home among the poorest sides in English top-flight recent memory. It's true, City smashed in 5 times on their most recent away trip, but this time they take on Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded. And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of fixture you just have to target - the top team in the league against one lacking of form, technical ability and confidence. The team of the gameweek is picked based on current FPL prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip. How did The Previous Squad Perform? No captain return but big points from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo produced a huge 83 points total. Success! Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16 Keeper and Defence Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home) This long-awaited derby in the Premier League for eight years is going to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it could be one of those matches that is all drama but little goalmouth action. Which would render Roefs, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent option. Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h) An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have just one goal scored on the road this season and a single goal in their past six fixtures. White is a great attacking option when he is given his chance. Having started the last two at full-back, registered a 14-point return against Brentford and leads the charts in that time among Gunners defenders 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 (h) The Toffees are inconsistent so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefence and Cucurella upside. The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has created more opportunities (19) than any other defender in the division. And he hasn't scored this season, after scoring five times the previous campaign. Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h) You shouldn't have great expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthgoals have dried up in the past two matches. More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly attacking positions as left wing-back in the last three games. During that spell he's had 4 shots, 2 big chances, one goal and one assist. He missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday too. Midfield Picks Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h) This fixture against Wolverhampton is too juicy to pass up and that renders Saka, Arsenaltop offensive asset a must-have. Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, scored four and might have had twice as many. The Gunners will be keen to attack. Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home) One point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is so consistent for the Gunners. More advanced this term, he's created more opportunities than any Arsenal player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name. He's also the most reliable for minutes as Mikel Arteta might view this as a chance to rest his players. Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (h) The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder. Fixture-proof, consistently a candidate for defensive bonus points and with multiple ways to FPL returns. Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (h) This gameweek's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy injury and we are aware what an explosive FPL asset he is capable of being. You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up. He missed the Blues'European defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees. Dango Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds United (home) Leeds enter this game following two great home performances against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have conceded three times for every one they've netted. This is probably Ouattara final fixture before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations. He's been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has five attacking returns in his past three fixtures at home. Forwards Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (home) It has been a disappointing last few gameweeks for Thiago owners, with just 3 points in two games. However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the division and has seven goals in seven home games. He is the best forward option this week and, with a favourable run of games, you can select and hold up until the January window at the very least. Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (home) Surely the manager continues to start with the promising Frenchman, after his brace performance at Leeds United. He was great at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not been signed and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward. Substitutes Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
