Alisson is the joint-most expensive goalkeeper in the 2024-25 Fantasy Premier League season.

The Liverpool shot-stopper has been priced at £5.5m, the same as Arsenal's David Raya and Manchester City duo Ederson and Stefan Ortega.

Alisson only scored 107 FPL points last season - 10 goalkeepers notched more - but he has remained as a premium option following Arne Slot's arrival at Anfield.

Raya tallied the second-highest number of points last year (135) and he is expected to remain as Arsenals' number one following his permanent move to the Emirates Stadium.

Ederson and Ortega are also £5.5m, with the former's future at Man City currently unknown.

There are six goalkeepers with a £5m price tag and they complete the top 10 most expensive FPL shot-stoppers this season.

Bernd Leno (Fulham), Emiliano Martinez (Aston Villa), Andre Onana (Man Utd), Jordan Pickford (Everton), Nick Pope (Newcastle) and Guglielmo Vicario (Tottenham) are all £5m.

Pickford was the highest-scoring FPL goalkeeper last year, with 153 points, while Leno and Onana (both 133 points) were joint-third.

How do goalkeepers score points in FPL?

Goalkeepers have several ways of scoring points in FPL 2024-25. The most rewarding way is through goals as goalkeepers will earn 10 points for every goal scored; however, scoring a goal is fairly unlikely for a goalkeeper.

The more obvious, and frequent, way is to not concede. Goalkeepers will earn four points for every clean sheet they earn. Furthermore, if they save a penalty, they will score five points.

If a goalkeeper assists a goal they will score three FPL points (the same as every other position), while they will score two points if they play more than 60 minutes (excluding added-time). They will score one point if they play up to 60 minutes.

Goalkeepers can also score save points. For every three saves a goalkeeper makes in a game, they will earn one FPL point.

The final way goalkeepers can score points is through the FPL bonus points system. According to the official FPL website, this is how bonus points are allocated: “They [bonus points] are devised and allocated post-match according to a Bonus Points System (BPS).

"The BPS utilises a range of statistics supplied by Opta that capture actions on the pitch, to create a performance score for every player.

"The players with the top three BPS in a given match receive bonus points - three points to the highest-scoring player, two to the second best and one to the third.”

Goalkeepers can also lose points if they concede two or more goals in a match, if they receive a yellow or red card, if they miss a penalty or if they score an own goal.

Who was the most expensive FPL goalkeeper in 2023-24?

Liverpool’s Alisson, Man City’s Ederson and Newcastle’s Nick Pope were all tied for the honour of being the most expensive goalkeeper in the 2023-24 edition of Fantasy Premier League.

All three players were priced at £5.5m.

Behind that trio, there were seven goalkeepers who cost £5m at the start of FPL 2023-24 - Kepa Arrizabalaga, Jose Sa, Hugo Lloris, Emiliano Martinez, Andre Onana, Aaron Ramsdale, David Raya and Guglielmo Vicario.

Kepa soon left Chelsea to join Real Madrid on loan, while Lloris departed Tottenham to join LAFC in January.

Meanwhile, Ramsdale spent the entire season as Raya’s back-up at Arsenal.
