Golden Boot Projected Top 3 Scorers in 2025/26
Based on betting odds, expert analysis, and predictive modelling, here’s the forecast for the Golden Boot race:
| Rank | Player | Club | Projected Goals |
| 1 | Erling Haaland | Manchester City | 25 |
| 2 | Mohamed Salah | Liverpool | 22 |
| 3 | Viktor Gyokeres | Arsenal | 18 |
Rationale Behind the Golden Boot Forecast:
Erling Haaland – As the overwhelming betting favourite and backed by supercomputer projections, he’s likely to lead the scoring charts with around 25 goals.
His proven record makes him the safest pick.
Mohamed Salah – A proven goal machine and last season’s top scorer. With a slightly reduced but still strong tally, around 22 goals seems plausible.
Viktor Gyokeres – Arsenal’s new forward could make a breakthrough. With betting support and opportunity in the Gunners’ attacking setup, 18 goals is a reasonable projection.
AI’s Premier League 2025/26 Golden Boot Prediction
- Erling Haaland (Man City) – 25 goals
- Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) – 22 goals
- Viktor Gyokeres (Arsenal) – 18 goals
So, according to AI it’s going to be City’s Erling Haaland that wins the 2025/26 Golden Boot.
This is also the view shared in Rio Ferdinand’s Premier League predictions for this season, but former City striker the Sergio Aguero Premier League tips see him siding with a different player – Arsenal’s Viktor Gyokeres.
Back Haaland To Win Golden Boot and City Land The Title
However, if you think AI is right and Haaland will land his third Golden Boot – why not increase his odds by putting him in a double with City to land the title?
If this appeals – you can double Erling Haaland up with City to take the title at 5/1.
2025/26 Premier League Golden Boot Betting Odds
- Erling Haaland – 11/8
- Mo Salah – 5/1
- Alexander Isak 6/1
