🔗 Share this article Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Picks to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Team of the Gameweek One major call in the FPL team of the gameweek involves go with no City assets - and yes, that includes Erling Haaland! Our funds is needed to load up on Gunners assets as they host one of the most struggling teams in English top-flight history. It's true, Manchester City scored in five goals on their most recent away trip, but this time they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of xGC. And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of match-up you need to exploit - the leading team in the league against one devoid of form, technical ability and self-belief. The team of the gameweek is selected using current FPL prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit. How did The Previous Squad Fare? The captain didn't deliver but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a massive 83 points. Boom! Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week for Gameweek 16 Keeper and Defence Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home) This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is set to be loud, fiery, combative - and it may prove to be one of those tight games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action. A scenario that would make Roefs, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a good shout. White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolves (home) An Gunners defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal on the road this season and one in their last six matches. White is a fantastic attacking option when he gets his chance. Having started the last two at full-back, registered a 14-point haul against the Bees and leads the way in that time among Arsenal defenders with two big chances created, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7. Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (h) The Toffees are unpredictable so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's potential. Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has created more chances (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the league. And he is yet to score this season, after scoring five times last season. Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home) You can't have high hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthgoals have slowed down in the last two games. Crucially, Dalot has been getting in some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the past 3 games. During that spell he's taken four shots, two clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well. Midfielders Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h) This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to ignore and that renders Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset a must-have. Little statistical analysis required to back this up. Manchester United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday night, scored 4 and could have had double that. The Gunners will be keen to attack. Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home) One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is incredibly consistent for Arsenal. More attacking this season, he's generated more chances than any other Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it. He's also the most reliable for minutes as Mikel Arteta could see this fixture as a opportunity to rest his players. Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (home) The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder. Fixture-proof, consistently a candidate for defensive bonus points and with several ways to points. Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (h) This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we know what an explosive FPL asset he is capable of being. You sense that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be flocking to bring him in. He missed ChelseaEuropean defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for Everton. Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (h) Leeds United enter this match following two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three times for every one they've netted. This is likely the winger's final match before heading to the AFCON. He's been excellent for the Bees this season, and has 5 goal contributions in his past 3 fixtures at home. Forwards Igor Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (h) It has been a disappointing last few gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with only three FPL points in two matches. Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the division and has 7 goals in seven fixtures at home. He's the best striker choice for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can select and hold up until the end of January at the very least. Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h) Surely the manager keeps faith with the promising striker, after his brace haul at Leeds. He performed great at the beginning of the campaign and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not been signed and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward. The Bench Martin Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
