It\u2019s time for our latest instalment of \u2018Frisking the Fixtures\u2019, where we pinpoint the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) teams and players with the best runs of matches over the next six Gameweeks. In this case, that\u2019s Gameweeks 5-10.<\/p>\n

As always, our colour-coded Fixture Ticker<\/a> is the primary source for this piece.<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE FIXTURE TICKER\"best<\/p>\n

Using this tool<\/a> as a Chief Member<\/a>, you can sort by difficulty, rank by attacking and defensive potential or find budget rotation pairings.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You can even set your own difficulty ratings, should you disagree with ours.<\/p>\n

And new, as of this season, is the ability to customise the colours!<\/p>\n

On the face of it, Wolves haven\u2019t improved much from our last fixture frisk<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They\u2019re still point-less following a Gameweek 3 home loss against Everton<\/a> \u2013 although Vitor Pereira\u2019s men did at least manage to score (twice!) in that match, having failed to do so against Manchester City<\/a> or Bournemouth<\/a> in their previous outings \u2013 and Gameweek 4\u2019s defeat at St James\u2019 Park<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The absence of hitherto chief goal threat Jorgen Strand Larsen (\u00a36.4m) isn\u2019t helping. He was being assessed \u201cday by day\u201d<\/a> when we last heard from Pereira post-match on Saturday, with it seeming touch-and-go as far as whether he\u2019ll be fit in time to face Leeds in Gameweek 5.<\/p>\n

Their current form and lack of first-choice striker aside, Wolves still top our Season Ticker between Gameweeks 5-10. It\u2019s a run that sees them face all three promoted sides \u2013 two of them at home \u2013 starting with a clash against Leeds this weekend.<\/p>\n

Tottenham Hotspur away after that could be trickier, although it\u2019s worth noting that Wolves are unbeaten against Spurs in five league matches (four wins, one draw). And looking past the recently-promoted opponents in this chunk of games, Brighton and Fulham have looked largely okay defensively but have just one win apiece to show for their efforts.<\/p>\n

Though this run should give them the opportunity to correct course to a degree, it\u2019s still difficult to advocate for many Wolves assets in FPL aside from Strand Larsen whenever he gets back up to speed. They\u2019ve not been creating many chances, sitting bottom of the league for expected goals (xG) with new arrival<\/a> Jhon Arias (\u00a35.5m) yet to make a meaningful impact. Emmanuel Agbadou (\u00a34.5m) has earned defensive contribution (DefCon) points on two occasions but those will only get you so far with limited attacking threat in a team second-bottom for expected goals conceded (xGC). Jose Sa (\u00a34.5m) is the Premier League\u2019s worst-performing goalkeeper for expected goals prevented<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In summary, then, there would seem to be no urgent need to rush any Wolves players into your squad despite their appealing fixtures. If you still own Strand Larsen, definitely monitor Pereira\u2019s presser later in the week for any clues as to his availability, but holding him a little longer may not be the worst move, particularly if you have other fires to put out. A case of \u2018don\u2019t buy, don\u2019t sell\u2019 unless you have a spare free transfer with the Norwegian, unless he\u2019s ruled out for longer than we currently expect.<\/p>\n
