There is a lot of intrigue in the English championship. One of the most interesting is linked to the career of the league’s top scorers. Experts identify six favorites: Erling Haaland (18 goals), Ollie Watkins (16), Mohamed Salah and Dominic Solanke (15 goals each), Heung-Min Son (14) and Bukayo Saka (13).
Bukayo Saka is injury prone
Let’s go from the least probable. You can bet that the London Arsenal striker will win the nomination at bookmakers with odds of 40.0. Looking ahead, we note that in the list of contenders for the title of top scorer in the Premier League there are only two players who constantly play as wingers: Saka and Salah.
Profile wingers, such as Saka, find it much more difficult to score than central forwards. Bukayo’s main function is to create opportunities for his teammates and help develop attacks. That’s why he has the fewest goals among his competitors.

Recently, the Arsenal striker was injured and missed the friendly matches with Brazil and Belgium. Saki’s injury resistance is low and he often takes hits to the legs. And Bukayo returns from injury, as a rule, not in the best shape. This season he will definitely not become the top scorer in the Premier League.
The Bournemouth star will continue fighting
Next up is Dominic Solanke. His chances of winning the Premier League scoring race were estimated at 35.0. The striker plays for Bournemouth, which is in the middle of the championship table. He scores mostly against outsiders, and not often.
You shouldn’t expect anything supernatural from Solanke. He became the first player in Bournemouth history to receive the Premier League Player of the Month award. This is where Dominic’s achievements end. He is simply a quality striker. To become the top scorer of the championship this is not enough.
Progress is being made at Tottenham
Another thing is Son Heung Min. You can bet that he will become the top scorer in the Premier League at the end of the season at odds of 20.0. The Korean star forward, like the rest of Tottenham, is inspired. With Postecoglou he opened up in a new way and started scoring much more frequently.
Another thing is that his teammates’ injuries affected Son’s performance. For a long time he had to replace Richarlison in the vanguard of the attack. Soon the Brazilian will recover from his injury and the Korean will move to his usual left winger position. And there he is no longer a scorer, but a wonderful assistant.
Unai Emery creates a dream team
You can bet on Ollie Watkins to become the Premier League’s top scorer at odds of 9.00. The Aston Villa forward became the first player in the top 5 leagues to score 10 goals and give the same number of assists. His success is directly linked to Unai Emery.
Thanks to the Spanish specialist, the club has risen from the middle of the table to the top and is fighting for access to the Champions League. There is a problem, but an important one. The team lacks resources. Towards the end of the season they show increasingly faded football and also lose points more frequently.
Salah will please Klopp
Liverpool, which recently regained the title of Club with the most Premier League titles, does not have that problem. Their top scorer is none other than Mohamed Salah, who recently recovered from injury to play in the FA Cup quarterfinals against Manchester United. Merseyside lost, but the joy at the Egyptian’s return outweighed the negative feelings among many fans.

It is not the first year that Salah is one of the best footballers in the English championship in the “goal+pass” system. If anyone is capable of challenging Erling Haaland for the title of top scorer in the championship, it is him. In 22 games of the current championship, the Egyptian scored 15 goals and gave nine assists. You can bet on him to become the Premier League’s top scorer for 9.00.
Manchester City believes in its leader
Erling Haaland has a two-goal advantage over his closest pursuer. The forward recently denied reports that he was injured. It’s the most important thing. Experts suggest betting on the Norwegian to become the Premier League’s top scorer this season, with odds of 1.25.
The team creates many opportunities for Erling. In this play, his performance disappoints her much more often than in the last. But there is a warning. Kevin De Bruyne has recently recovered from injury. The duo produced an unforgettable performance in the FA Cup round of 16 tie against Luton Town (6-2). The forward scored a penta-trick. He scored four goals from passes from the Belgian midfielder.
De Bruyne’s filigree passes and Haaland’s finishing are truly an incredible mix. There is every reason to believe that the Norwegian will become the league’s top scorer for the second time in a row. Last season he set a Premier League record with 35 goals.
Tender: Erling Haaland will become the top scorer in the Premier League at the end of the 2023/2024 season at 1.25.
