Premier League top scorers: Aubameyang trailing Aguero and Salah before Arsenal vs Man Utd
PREMIER LEAGUE top scorers are in the race for the Golden Boot with the all-important run-in set to begin. Express Sport is on hand to rundown the division’s best performers.
Sergio Aguero leads the way at the top of the scoring charts having enjoyed yet another stellar season at Manchester City.
The Argentina international has already scored 18 goals and provided six assists for the Sky Blues this term.
And he will have the opportunity to add to those tallies when Pep Guardiola’s reigning champion face Watford.
Sergio Aguero is a goal better off than Mohamed Salah - although the Liverpool forward has one more assist than his rival.
Salah’s exploits have been integral to Liverpool’s title challenge as they go toe-to-toe with City.
And he will be desperate to fire them to a 22nd win of the campaign when they take on Burnley on Sunday.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is third in the Premier League top scorers standings at present.
The Arsenal forward missed the chance to go level with Salah last week as Hugo Lloris saved his penalty in Arsenal’s draw with Tottenham.
Aubameyang, though, can put things right on Sunday when Arsenal play host to Manchester United at the Emirates.
The Gabonese striker’s team-mate Alexander Lacazette is also among the Premier League’s 10 top scorers this term.
While United’s Romelu Lukaku and Paul Pogba are part of that list too having thrived under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
