Gabriel remains a top priority for the gameweek due to his aerial threat during set pieces and a solid defensive foundation. Teammate Calafiori provides a strong secondary option as Arsenal looks to keep things tight at the back. Both Brighton defenders, De Cuyper and Van Hecke, offer high upside against upcoming opponents. While rotation is always a concern for fullbacks, their expected points suggest they are reliable starters for those looking to bolster their back line during this round of matches.
