Premier League Top Scorer Race Favors Viktor Gyokeres Over Haaland and Salah, According to talkSPORT BET Discussion
In an exciting turn of events, Arsenal's new signing, Viktor Gyokeres, is making waves in the betting world as the most backed player to win the Premier League Golden Boot for the 2025/26 season.
Gyokeres, who joined Arsenal for a record £63.5 million, scored an impressive 54 goals in 52 matches for Sporting Lisbon in all competitions and provided 13 assists. His high-profile move has caught the attention of bookmakers and bettors alike, with 30% of bets backing him for the top scorer title.
While traditional favorites like Erling Haaland and Mohamed Salah hold shorter odds at 11/8 and 6/1 respectively, Gyokeres benefits from the backing of a team that seems to have him as their primary striker. His relatively attractive odds make him a popular choice among bettors.
Mohamed Salah had a spectacular season with 47 goal contributions in the league last season, including 29 goals. Despite being priced at 9/2, Salah is the second favorite to win the Golden Boot, with 10% of bets. Erling Haaland is the joint-second most backed player to win the Golden Boot, with 20% of bets, and is priced as the 11/8 favorite.
However, it's not just Haaland who is gaining attention. Alexander Isak is backed for the Golden Boot by as many punters as Haaland, with 20% of bets, and is priced at 6/1. Rasmus Hojlund is also one of the well-backed strikers for the top scorer, with 10% of bets.
It's important to note that Liam Delap, a well-backed striker for the top scorer, has 10% of bets, and Manchester City's Erling Haaland has scored 85 goals in 97 Premier League appearances since joining the club.
