Manchester City star Erling Haaland is the runaway favorite to win a fourth Golden Boot award.
Haaland has won in three of the last four years, only punctuated by Mohamed Salah's record-setting season in 2024/25.
With Salah having left Liverpool and no other standout candidates becoming clear at the start of the season, Haaland was considered the clear favorite to once again finish atop the standings, even if Man City don't win the league title.
All odds as of August 21, 2026.
