Who is Leading The Golden Boot Race 2024-25?

Here are the top scorers in the Premier League so far in 2024:

Rank Player EPL Team Matches played Goals Scored Shot at Target Assists Minutes played
1 Erling Haaland Manchester City 8 10 23 0 720
2 Cole Parmer Chelsea 8 6 28 5 687
2 Bryan Mbeumo Brentford 8 6 17 0 720
3 Luis Diaz Liverpool 8 5 9 1 475
3 Mohamad Salah Liverpool 8 5 16 5 696

Erling Haaland (Manchester City) has been the Citizens star player for a while now. He has played eight matches, and in these appearances, he has had no assists but has had achieved an average of 1.25 goals per match. Haaland has cumulatively played for 720 minutes, and with more matches lined up, these statistics are expected to improve further.

Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford) has played cumulatively for 600 minutes. He has an average of 0.75 goals per match.

In the previous season, Haaland was the winner of the Golden Boot. He had scored an impressive 27 goals, even though he missed some matches due to a knee injury, and had a shooting accuracy of 60%. The Premier League season has only just begun, but Haaland is already off to a flying start, so chances are he will improve on his previous performance this time around.

Cole Parmer is Chelsea’s best hope for the Golden Boot as he scored 22 goals last season, second only to Haaland. Many of these goals came in the form of hat tricks, so it would not be a suprise to see sudden jumps in Parmer’s goal count this season.

Mohammad Salah (Liverpool) is also in the running, he scored 18 goals last season and has won the award three times before.

Will The Upcoming Matches Bring in a Change in the Standings?

The EPL only began in August, and each potential candidate for the Golden Boot has another 30 more matches to play, with many of them tough and crucial. So, the list can change dramatically by the end of the season.

Players may get injured, or some may miss some matches, as Haaland did in 2023-24. When a key player is injured, it affects the performance of the entire squad. For instance, injuries to Rodri and Kevin De Bruyne, the game makers of the team, have affected the overall defense-penetrating passes for Haaland to score.

Many experts predict Haaland may win the Golden Boot this season for his clinical finish and the dominant team performance. However, Mohamad Salah should not be ignored and he has previously won the Golden Boot in 2017-18, 2018-19, and 2021-22.

Who’s Your Top Scorer Pick for EPL 24-25?

With only a month of EPL 24-25 in the bag, predicting the outcome of the Golden Boot award is difficult. Though Halland is physically fit and in form, and his team is performing dominantly, any unforeseen issues with him or key teammates may affect his performance. Nevertheless, Halland has the best chance to win the Golden Boot this season. Football lovers across the globe place their bets on the EPL matches and the winner of the Golden Boot.
