Premier League Top Goalscorer Favourites
We take a look at three players expected to be at the forefront of the top goalscorer charts this season.
Erling Haaland
In four seasons in the Premier League, Erling Haaland has won the Golden Boot on three occasions. The Norwegian has won it on each occasion with 27 goals or more. His strike rate slowed towards the end of the 2025/26 campaign as Manchester City faltered, but he is the clear marksman to beat once again ahead of 2026/27.
Alexander Isak
Alexander Isak endured an injury hit first season at Liverpool. The Swedish striker could never get a run of games, though with the Reds so bitterly disappointing, it is doubtful he could have made much of a mark even with a full bill of health. Under a new manager though, he could recapture the form which sparked his £120 million move last summer.
Viktor Gyokeres
He did not always fire in his first season at Arsenal, but Viktor Gyokeres still managed to score 14 goals in his first Premier League season. While not the catalyst himself, his contributions undeniably aided the Gunners in their Premier League title run last term. He would not need to kick on too much to have a say in the Golden Boot race.
Premier League Golden Boot Outsiders & Dark Horses
While Haaland is a clear favourite with the bookmakers, that does ensure there are plenty of plausible contenders available at significant prizes. Here are three who could make their mark.
Igor Thiago
Igor Thiago enjoyed a stunning first season at Brentford, with only Haaland scoring more than him in the league last term. The second season is often tricky, but Keith Andrews’ side excelled at causing the opposition problems last term. The Brazilian centre forward may again be among the goals.
Joao Pedro
Another Brazilian striker capable of scoring on a regular basis is Joao Pedro. The Chelsea man has a point to prove too, having been left out of Brazil’s squad for the 2026 World Cup. Freshened up over the summer, he could lead the line for Xabi Alonso’s new look Blues this season.
Ollie Watkins
Aston Villa may be undergoing a pre-season of change, but Ollie Watkins’ record continues to speak for itself. It is now four Premier League seasons in a row in which he has scored 15+ goals. While his peak effort is 19 in 2023/24, his output should make him an each-way option in this market once more.
