With title rivals Arsenal and Aston Villa facing off, and Manchester City travelling to face Sunderland's stingy defence, this is a great week for FPL managers to look elsewhere for punts and captain choices.

Manchester United at home to Wolves, Liverpool taking on Leeds and Chelsea against Bournemouth's leaky away defence are games to target.

You just need to try to work out which players will be rotated, with games coming thick and fast.

Good luck!

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

After three fantastic weeks, back down to earth with only three returns.

Clean sheet wipeouts for triple Arsenal defence and Virgil van Dijk against Wolves did not help!

Florian Wirtz (10 points), Hugo Ekitike (five) and Tijjani Reijnders (eight) led to a disappointing 38 points.

John Victor, Nottingham Forest, keeper, £4m - Everton (h)

The Brazilian has now started three in a row and will be a bargain £4m option if he keeps his spot, although Matz Sels is now back from injury.

Sean Dyche's Forest take on his old side Everton, who haven't scored in three games and could be missing their three best attacking players - Iliman Ndiaye, Jack Grealish and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.

Nikola Milenkovic, Nottingham Forest, £5.1m - Everton (h)

Given Everton's scoring slump, double Forest defence is worth a punt.

There's barely anything between Milenkovic and centre-back partner Murillo, with almost identical defensive contribution points (defcon) per 90 mins and £0.1m price difference.

The Serb takes more shots though and has a better scoring record, with five last season, so he gets the nod.

Patrick Dorgu, Manchester United, £4.1m - Wolves (h)

If you watched United's win over Newcastle on Boxing Day, the player who stood out was Dorgu, playing out of position (OOP) on the right wing.

FPL managers love an OOP player and at £4.1m too, Dorgu could be a gift.

Don't expect him to be a long-term asset, but United are down to the bare bones at the moment and if you have a spare transfer then why not take a punt.

Given Wolves' scoring record and the attacking positions Dorgu takes up, a clean sheet and attacking return haul is a distinct possibility.

Marc Guehi, Crystal Palace, £5.2m - Fulham (h)

Guehi has six attacking returns this season and Palace's defence is always worth backing at home against teams such as Fulham, who have lost Alex Iwobi and Samuel Chukwueze to the Africa Cup of Nations.

Lewis Hall, Newcastle, £5.2m - Burnley (a)

Hall has started six of Newcastle's past seven games and emerged as a key attacking outlet, just as he was last season before getting injured.

In that time he's had eight shots, created five changes and two big chances.

He passed the eye test against Manchester United in their last game, taking up loads of threatening positions and he could have scored.

Burnley, on the other hand, have failed to find the net in four of their past five home games, so a clean sheet is a real possibility too.

Matheus Cunha (captain), Manchester United, £8.1m - Wolves (h)

Cunha ended up with a two-pointer last time at home to Newcastle, as the flow of the game meant he spent too much time defending in the second half.

But the Brazilian carried a threat - three shots - and he has had a league-high 28 shots over the past five games. He has underperformed his xG of 2.78 as well with just two goals.

Add to that eight chances created and Cunha has emerged as a great FPL asset.

Wolves are slowly improving but still a team to target so Cunha gets the captain's armband too.

Florian Wirtz, Liverpool, £8.1m - Leeds (h)

Liverpool were a team to target for their two home games against Wolves and Leeds.

Wolves didn't turn out to be the bonanza that we expected, but they get a second chance against a Leeds side with an away record almost as bad, with more goals conceded too.

So it is very much a case of same again - Wirtz impressed, scored his first goal and there's no need to change.

Rayan Cherki, Manchester City, £6.7m - Sunderland (a)

Cherki now has the joint most assists in the Premier League this season with seven and they have all come in his past nine games.

Sunderland have been strong defensively at home - they have only conceded eight - but Leeds created a hatful of chances against them on Sunday with an xG of 2.03 and City will fancy themselves.

Phil Foden (£9m) is still a strong option but Cherki is much cheaper and may be just as productive for the rest of the season.

Alejandro Garnacho, Chelsea, £6.4m - Bournemouth (h)

Every team of the week needs one punt and Garnacho is it.

The Argentine has started Chelsea's past four and has been their most threatening player without getting a return.

He has had 12 shots in that time, nine in the box, three big chances and an xG of 1.03.

It's hard to trust Cole Palmer - the England man looks a little off the pace since returning from injury - so Garnacho or Pedro Neto are much cheaper attacking options, although rotation is always a risk.

Bournemouth have conceded a league-worst 27 goals on the road.

Erling Haaland, Manchester City, £15.1m - Sunderland (a)

Haaland has had four blanks and three hauls of 13 points or more in his past seven games.

He is hard to predict too, having blanked in juicy home games against Leeds and Sunderland.

Given he faces Sunderland away and Arsenal found it tough at the Stadium of Light, I'm putting the captain's armband elsewhere.

Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £9.1m - Leeds (h)

Like Wirtz, Ekitike is worth backing for a second straight home game.

He may have finished with just an assist against Wolves, but was a constant threat with three shots in the box. Two goals against Leeds in the away fixture is a good sign too.

Matz Sels, Nottingham Forest, keeper, £4.6m - Everton (h)

Trevoh Chalobah, Chelsea, defender, £5.5m - Bournemouth (h)

Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Leeds, striker, £5.8m - Liverpool (a)

Ryan Gravenberch, Liverpool, midfielder, £5.7m - Leeds (h)

Team total cost: £98.7m
