There are many things to get excited by when it comes to the World Cup. Which country will win the tournament, which national team will face unexpected elimination and which match will boast the most goals are just some of the questions that tickle our fancy.
However, there is nothing quite like following the race for the best goal scorer of the World Cup. Betting operators such as netbet.co.uk have already provided punters with some tasty odds for the biggest favourites to win the 2018 World Cup Golden Boot and fans and betting enthusiasts can now start to place their predictions on paper and hope to make some winnings out of them.
In this article we will look at our three favourites for the Golden Boot at this World Cup and we hope that we will help many of you with our choices.
Harry Kane
Harry Kane is our prime candidate for the Golden Boot this summer. The English striker is playing in the form of his life and has been scoring goals for fun this season. He is tall, athletic, can score with his feet and his head and is a real handful for defenders.
Kane has singlehandedly taken Tottenham out of Premier League mediocrity into European stardom and he can do the same thing with his English national team. In addition, Gareth Southgate, the English national manager, has said on more than one occasion that he hopes that Harry Kane stays fit and healthy as he is his only reliable goal scoring threat this summer.
Cristiano Ronaldo
Currently the best player in the world will have a big point to prove in this year's World Cup. His Real Madrid side played quite poorly this season and he has been dealing with large shares of the criticism himself.
However, when things get tough Cristiano Ronaldo only gets stronger. That's why we expect him to put in his best performance of recent years in front of worldwide audiences when football's biggest competition kicks off in Russia.
Romelu Lukaku
The big Belgian had a slow start to the season at Manchester United, but as the months went by he started growing into his role and is now one of the most feared strikers in the English Premier League.
He has all the killer goal scoring traits you would want to see in a striker and he combines those with his unprecedented physical ability and strength.
Out of the three strikers on this list he probably has the most to prove as he has constantly been blamed that he doesn't deliver and that he still has to go a long way if he is to fulfill his full potential.
However, as with all things Lukaku related, it seems like he is a level headed young man who takes criticism into his stride, doesn't shy away from it and uses it only as a source of motivation. This is something which will only further his playing career and his first accolade may come as soon as this summer.
