i'd go for the fuel pump relay first, give it a whack before changing it as it may sort it out, these are prone to fail, they are loacated in the drivers side footwell

check fuel pump is running when you are crancking if no joy, this will sound crazy but check full closure on drivers door a common problem is the immobiliser brain in the nearside front door pillar people kick them accidentally they also suffer a bit with minor condensation
