BAYERN MUNICH's Harry Kane remains the strong odds-on favourite to finish as the Bundesliga's top goalscorer this season. But the England captain hasn’t been able to shake the challenge of Eintracht Frankfurt’s Omar Marmoush in the race for the Golden Cannon in 2025.
Best Bundesliga top scorer odds
Harry Kane 1/7
Many would have expected Kane to be running away with things in the top goalscorer race by the November international break. But the Bayern Munich man, who is looking to win the individual honour for the second season running, has stiff competition from Omar Marmoush.
Betting Tip: Bayern Munich and Over 3.5 Goals 4/5
Bayern will return to action with a home game against 13th-placed Augsburg after the international break, a very winnable fixture.
Omar Marmoush 5/1
Frankfurt’s Omar Marmoush has had a tremendous season and has emerged as the biggest threat to Harry Kane in the top-scorer race. It will be interesting to see if he can sustain it over the second half of the season, but right now he’s in the hunt.
Betting Tip: Eintracht Frankfurt/Eintracht Frankfurt HT/FT 8/5
Marmoush’s Frankfurt have a tricky home match against Werder Bremen next, but their superior scoring threat should carry them through.
Victor Boniface – 20/1
Victor Boniface has had a steady rather than spectacular season in front of goal for Leverkusen, indicative of the greater struggles the champions have had this term. Boniface was one of the stars of Bayer Leverkusen’s title-winning campaign last season, scoring 14 goals in 23 appearances. His strike rate needs to improve this season to get into the golden cannon race, however.
Betting Tip: Leverkusen to win to nil 21/20
Leverkusen, who have drawn five of their last six, host Heidenheim next, a match they are red-hot odds-on favourites to win.
Lois Openda – 20/1
RB Leipzig’s Lois Openda was once the second favourite in this season’s Bundesliga top scorer market. The youngster, who tallied 24 goals in 34 league appearances last season, has seen his output slow a little and needs a confidence-boosting run of goals.
Betting Tip: RB Leipzig To Win To Nil 10/3
Leipzig need to rediscover their winning touch after slipping out of form just before the international break. They visit Hoffenheim next, who are fourth from bottom.
Our Bundesliga top scorer prediction
Kane is a proven goalscorer, playing up front for the Bundesliga odds-on outright favourites. With four goals in three games early in the new season, he became the quickest player in Bundesliga history to reach 50 goal involvements (40 goals, 10 assists) doing so in just 35 games. Given the strength of Bayern, he should have enough to go the distance and edge Marmoush and other contenders, injuries permitting.
