Get ready for the 2017-18 fantasy football season as we list our top 5 Fantasy Premier League bargain goalkeepers.

Recommendations include players from Burnley, Everton, Liverpool, Leicester City and West Bromwich Albion.

Tom Heaton, BUR – £5m

It’s no coincidence that he was last season’s top-performing FPL goalkeeper and among the best in his previous top-flight season.

Burnley are strong at home, and Heaton makes so many saves in away games that he earns points even when his side loses.

Jordan Pickford, EVE – £5m

Outstanding for relegated Sunderland last season and should pick up more clean sheets now he’s at Everton.

Simon Mignolet, LIV – £5m

As things stand he’s going into the new season as Liverpool’s number 1, and the Reds claim more clean sheets than their reputation for dodgy defending might suggest.

Kasper Schmeichel, LEI – £5m

Leicester rediscovered their mojo under Craig Shakespeare towards the end of last season, and that mojo includes a strong defence.

Ben Foster, WBA – £4.5m

Tony Pulis sides tend to start seasons strong defensively, and West Brom have a favourable set of early fixtures.

EDIT: West Ham’s new signing, England goalkeeper Joe Hart, can be had for just £4.5m.
