Harvey Elliott

Sports Betting Odds – The new Champions League season is upon us, and it has the potential to be among the best in the history of the competition.

Europe’s elite have started on the long road to potential glory in eight months’ time, battling for the unique chance to be crowned the best team on the continent at the aptly named Gazprom Arena in St Petersburg in May.

A frenzied summer transfer window in 2021 means there are narratives galore this term; Lionel Messi’s move to Paris Saint-Germain, Cristiano Ronaldo’s return to Manchester United and Romelu Lukaku’s Chelsea comeback are all big business.

All three of those names will have high hopes of being the top goalscorer in Europe’s elite club competition come the end of the campaign, but they will have plenty of competition.

With deadly goalscorers on the move left, right and centre, and new strike partnerships (and triumvirates) forming and evolving, the race to be Europe’s leading marksman is sure to be enthralling.

Here are the top ten contenders for the 2021/22 Champions League golden boot – ranked:

  • Robert Lewandowski – Bayern Munich
  • Erling Haaland – Borussia Dortmund
  • Lionel Messi – PSG
  • Kylian Mbappe – PSG
  • Neymar – PSG
  • Romelu Lukaku _ Chelsea
  • Mohamed Salah – Liverpool
  • Cristiano Ronaldo – Manchester United
  • Karim Benzema – Real Madrid
  • Memphis Depay – FC Barcelona
