Who will win the Premier League Golden Boot 2021/22?
The Premier League top scorers race has boiled down to a two-horse race for the Golden Boot.
Mohamed Salah is the clear favourite with a one-goal advantage heading into the last day of the season.
He is up against Wolves, who are on a poor streak of form, and Liverpool need a victory to push Manchester City all the way in the title race. Salah is rested and ready to play.
Son Heung Min is the only realistic contender to the throne. He has recorded his best ever season in the Premier League with a total of 28 contributions in terms of goals and assists.
He will play this weekend against rock-bottom Norwich. Spurs need a point to virtually guarantee Champions League football next year so there's still incentive for Son to show up with a big display.
Cristiano Ronaldo rounds off the top three but he's four goals off Salah prior to the weekend. It would take a remarkable turn of events for the Portuguese star to launch his way to the top of the charts.
