Erling Haaland equals Unibet record

Ever since Haaland hit the Premier League with City last season, he just can't stop scoring.

The Norwegian scored 36 goals in 35 Premier League games last season on his way to the division's Golden Boot and already has 11 in 10 games this campaign.

His prolific record in front of goal saw his anytime goalscorer price drop to the equal lowest in Unibet history for this weekend's match against Bournemouth - $1.20.

Since hitting this mark, the 23-year-old drifted to $1.24 if you want to get on board.

If you want to back Haaland (11 goals) to win this season's Premier League Golden Boot, he is also priced at $1.20, with Son Heung-min ($12 - eight goals) and Mo Salah ($7 - eight goals) in pursuit.

The Champions League top goalscorer is a much more open race with Haaland the favourite at $2.10, while Harry Kane ($4), Kylian Mbappe ($5.50), Gabriel Jesus, Robert Lewandowski and Julian Alvarez (all $17) are the next in line.

A decent smokey bet would be Real Madrid gun Jude Bellingham at $19, with the Englishman currently top-scorer in the competition with three goals alongside Alvarez, Evanilson, Rasmus Hojlund, Jesus, Brais Mendez and Alvaro Morato.

Aston Villa a chance for top four?

After 12 straight home wins, it's pretty clear that Spanish boss Unai Emery made a significant impact since taking over Aston Villa.

Emery has steered Villa to 20 wins in 2023, with 21 wins in 1998 the only other 12-month period with more victories - and there is still two months to go.

Villa are fifth on the table and there are no signs they are going to slow down with Emery pulling the strings.

If you think Villa can sneak into the top four at the end of the Premier League season, you can get $5.50 on this result.

It would require one of Tottenham, Manchester City, Arsenal or Liverpool to drop out of the top four though.
