FIFA 20: Predicting the top 5 goalkeepers

Signing a top keeper is probably the last thing a player in FIFA Ultimate Team does. The main focus always remains on getting a top striker and only after the main 4-5 players are signed, players usually start saving up to buy a top keeper.

The main thinking behind this is that if they can score a lot of goals, they do not need to worry a lot about conceding them on the other end. However, having a top keeper is very important when it comes to the Weekend Leagues.

While the best keepers go for a lot of coins, they are nowhere close to what a player would spend on an outfielder. Without further ado, here are the predicted top 5 keepers in FIFA 20:

#5 – David de Gea (89)

What has happened to David de Gea? The Spaniard was easily the best keeper in the world for the past few season but the last 12 months have been forgettable for him. The Manchester United star has made way too many mistakes and it has cost his nation and club big time.

Rated as the top keeper in FIFA 19 at 91, De Gea is set to be pushed to 89. The former Atletico Madrid shot-stopper has been outclassed by almost all of the other top keepers in the world and there is no way he can be rated as the best in FIFA 20.

While a huge downgrade cannot be given as well, it is likely that he will be handed a rating of 89 – 2 less than his rating in FIFA 19. Spanish National Team fans want Kepa Arrizabalaga to replace him in the national team but that might not happen for another year at least.

#4 – Alisson Becker (89)

What a signing Alisson has been for Liverpool! He made some amazing saves this season and that has helped Liverpool become a force to reckon with in Europe again.

Rated at 85 initially in FIFA 19, Alisson was upgraded to 88 in the Winter Upgrades. With FIFA 20 coming up, it won't be a surprise if he is pushed to 89 in the game.

#3 – Manuel Neuer (89)

Manuel Neuer is on a rapid decline. The German suffered an injury at the start of last season and it looks like he has still not recovered from it. Neuer was rated at 90 in FIFA 19 and will be getting a downgrade in FIFA 20.

While EA Sports might not hand him a huge downgrade, a push to 89 at least is expected for the Bayern Munich goalkeeper in FIFA 20.

#2 – Jan Oblak (90)

Many would argue that Jan Oblak is the best goalkeeper in the world. Looking at the number of goals he has conceded in the last 3-4 years, it isn't a surprise that many think of him as the best.

Rated at 90 in FIFA 19, Oblak is set to keep that rating. He was the joint 2nd best in the game along with Neuer and Courtois but is the only one who is likely to retain that place.

#1 – Marc-André ter Stegen (91)

Replacing David de Gea on top of the charts is set to be Barcelona's Marc-André ter Stegen. The German has been in sensational form this season and apart from that one game at Liverpool, he's been rock solid at the back.

Rated at 89 in FIFA 19, Ter Stegen is set be pushed to 91 – making him the best active keeper in the game.
