<\/a>Top goalkeeper pick for Gameweek 6<\/b><\/h2>\n

As part of our FPL coverage, we are going to pick out a Differential Duel<\/em> ahead of every Gameweek.<\/p>\n

The idea is to pit two comparable assets against each other \u2014 one who isn\u2019t necessarily being selected by most FPL managers, and one who is proving popular.<\/p>\n

We will then give you the stats and it is your call as to who gets the final nod.<\/p>\n

This week, we compare Bournemouth’s Neto (1.2% ownership) with Manchester City’s Ederson (21.0%).<\/p>\n

Generally, you won’t go too far wrong by picking Ederson in your team. Though costing \u00a35.6million, he’s the undisputed first choice for treble winners Man City and will be reliable more times than not.<\/p>\n

But, for \u00a31.1m less, you could opt for his compatriot Neto, who is one of the leading points scorers among goalkeepers so far this season, with plenty of saves helping him pick up several bonus points here and there.<\/p>\n

Here is a closer look at how their 2022\/23 stats compare on our Comparison Matrix<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a>Best cheap goalkeepers for Gameweek 6<\/b><\/h2>\n

It is fair to say that goalkeepers at the bottom end of the price scale might not start you many games, but that does not mean they should be completely ruled out when it comes to FPL.<\/p>\n

For genuine starters, you might want to focus on our 4.5 picks, although Alphonse Areola and Matt Turner also look like keeping the gloves for their respective sides as things stand. The below selections have been produced after running this year’s numbers through our Squawka Score super computer ahead of Gameweek 6.<\/p>\n
