Leading Contenders and Betting Odds for 2026-27

David Raya remains the favorite to claim the Golden Glove again this season. Arsenal’s reputation as one of Europe’s strongest defensive sides backs this up. Close challengers include Gianluigi Donnarumma from Man City and Liverpool’s Alisson Becker.

Donnarumma was runner-up last year but had a tough start conceding three goals to Arsenal in the Community Shield, sparking doubts about his form. Alisson missed much time due to injuries last season, which kept him off the top of the list.

  • Gianluigi Donnarumma (Man City) - +200
  • Alisson (Liverpool) - +350
