Goalie -- Hugo Lloris, Tottenham

Salary: $5,000

Yep, another Spurs player. With goalies getting 10 points for a clean sheet and 7 points for a win, Lloris profiles as the slate's top keeper even if he doesn't offer much in the way of save volume.

Lloris didn't have a good game last week, allowing a goal while making just one save, but a victory helped him total 7.5 FanDuel points. As a 1.5-goal favorite, the Frenchman has -- by far -- the best win odds on the slate.

In cash, there's no reason to look elsewhere, but in GPPs, you can check out Jordan Pickford ($5,500).

Pickford is the slate's most expensive keeper, and Everton are mere 0.5-goal favorites over Southampton -- two things which should cap his ownership. But England's first-choice goalie is a talented dude, and the Saints aren't very good in attack. They were blanked last week, and they scored a measly 37 goals in 38 EPL fixtures last season as they narrowly dodged relegation. Pickford's floor is scary, but the upside is there, particularly if Everton get a win.
