Fantasy Premier League 2018/19: 5 Best Goalkeepers To Boost Your FPL Points

Manchester City v Huddersfield Town - Premier League

#1 Neil Etheridge (Cardiff City) - £4.6

Cardiff City v Newcastle United - Premier League
Etheridge has been superb for Cardiff this season

Neil Etheridge may only be worth a meagre £4.6, but he's managed to find himself at the top of the list for goalkeepers in Fantasy Premier League this season. Racking up an impressive 32 points, Etheridge finds himself 5 points ahead of the competition, despite not looking like anything special at the start of the campaign.

The Filipino shot-stopper has two cleansheets to his name (0-0 Newcastle, 0-0 Huddersfield), and has also saved two penalties so far, including one in the last minute against Newcastle to keep the score level and earn his side a point. He received a whopping 16 points for this performance.

A big factor for why Etheridge gets so many points in FPL is because of the sheer amount of saves he has to make. Cardiff are a vulnerable side defensively and often find themselves on the backfoot, this means that Etheridge must step in a lot more than other goalkeepers in the Premier League do.

A certain purchase for anyone looking for a boost this season.
