Premier League Golden Boot race: Mohamed Salah, Sergio Aguero, Harry Kane and more

Image: Who will win the Premier League Golden Boot?

Who is setting the pace in the Premier League Golden Boot race as we enter the final 12 games of the season?

Mohamed Salah's goal against Bournemouth on Saturday ensured he stays top of the standings with 17 goals, but he is joined by Sergio Aguero after a second hat-trick in a week in Manchester City's demolition of Chelsea.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang led the early standings but has slipped behind, with five goals in his last 10 Premier League games not enough to keep up with Salah and Aguero's quickfire scoring.

But don't write off Harry Kane, who was initially expected to be missing into March but is still only three goals off the pace with 14, and now looking likely to return to the Tottenham squad before the month is out.

Who are the bookies backing?

On the back of his exceptional recent form Sergio Aguero has edged ahead of the other Premier League Golden Boot winner favourites at 5/4.
