The Brazilian was shortlisted for his outstanding save in the 3-1 victory over West Ham on 16 September.
An entertaining game full of chances was poised at 1-1 when Ederson made a wonderful save to deny Kurt Zouma.
The Hammers’ defender rose high from a corner and headed powerfully towards goal, but Ederson leapt to his left to keep the ball out.
He faces competition from five other goalkeepers for the award and the vote is open now.
The other nominees are Jordan Pickford (Sheffield United v Everton), Guglielmo Vicario (Burnley v Tottenham), David Raya (Arsenal v Tottenham), Robert Sanchez (Chelsea v Aston Villa) and Alisson Becker (Tottenham v Liverpool).
The vote is open now and closes at 11:00 (UK) on Monday, 9 October with the winner being announced on Friday, 13 October.
