1. Jordan Pickford (Everton) - £5million
The England number one was the FPL's top point-scoring goalkeeper last year, picking up 153 thanks to his numerous outstanding saves and penalty shut outs. Everton have looked in better shape since the appointment of Sean Dyche and Pickford could pick up clean sheet points in the opening weeks of the campaign, with the Toffees facing Brighton, Tottenham Hotspur and Bournemouth. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images

2. Robert Sanchez (Chelsea) - £4.5million
The Blues have three goalkeepers on their books capable of being Enzo Maresca's starting goalkeeper this season, and they all cost £4.5m on FPL. That said, Sanchez has been the regular starter in the club's pre-season campaign and looks like he has won the race to start the season between the sticks. Chelsea improved a lot towards the back end of last season and could take that momentum into the new season. At just £4.5m, Sanchez could end up being a huge bargain for you at such a low cost. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images

There's a feeling United could be better this year and Onana has a chance to claim some early points with games against Fulham, Brighton and Southampton in the first month of the season. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
