The 2022 Qatar World Cup will be one of the most entertaining tournaments set to feature a long list of attacking talents.
Football GOATs Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, Harry Kane, Neymar Jr, Karim Benzema and Kylian Mbappe, are just some of the few attackers who will be looking to win the prestigious Golden Boot award.
List Of Favourites To Win The Golden Boot At The 2022 World Cup
With so many attacking talents ready to set the pitch ablaze in Qatar, the bookies have already compiled a list of favourites to win the Golden Boot award.
Given below are the top 10 favourites to win the Golden Boot award with their odds. The list ranks players from the least favourite to the most favourite:
10. Vinicius Junior: 25/1
9. Memphis Depay: 25/1
8. Lautaro Martinez: 25/1
7. Romelu Lukaku: 16/1
6. Neymar: 16/1
5. Cristiano Ronaldo: 16/1
4. Lionel Messi: 12/1

Harry Kane currently leads the list just slightly past French starlet Kylian Mbappe following one of his best career starts in the Premier League this season.
Although the list is nothing short of exciting players, fans will certainly miss one of the biggest names in football at the moment. Norwegian forward and Manchester City striker Erling Haaland will not feature in the tournament as Norway failed to qualify.
The winner of the Golden Boot award will also raise the chances for his nation to win the World Cup.
Golden Boot Award 2018 Russia World Cup
England captain and Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane won the Golden Boot award back in the 2018 Russia World Cup.
Kane scored an impressive six goals in the tournament, with all of them from inside the box. Three of the goals were from penalties. France won the 2018 World Cup, while England managed to make it to the semi-finals.
Record For Most Goals Scored In A Single World Cup
Legendary French forward Fontaine, holds the record for the most goals ever scored in a single World Cup tournament. Fontaine scored an impressive tally of 13 goals out of six games at the 1958 World Cup. The record is definitely a tough record to beat and will definitely stay unbeaten for years to come.
