Twelve days remain until the 2026 World Cup, and while the winner of football’s highest trophy will receive a lot of attention, the competition for the Golden Boot is expected to be equally exciting.
In light of this, Sky Bet is enabling Erling Haaland to win the Golden Boot from 12/1 to 14/1 by providing a special Price Boost on the tournament’s top goalscorer market.
Although Norway isn’t one of the favorites to win, they have enough talent, especially in midfield with players like Martin Odegaard, to often give Haaland opportunities.
It’s understandable why he would end up on the scoresheet throughout the competition when you consider that he is possibly the most clinical finisher in all of football.
Erling Haaland’s chances of winning the Golden Boot at the 2026 World Cup increased to 14/1 with Sky Bet.
Haaland, a top striker who has scored 38 goals in all competitions this season, is also in outstanding form going into the World Cup.
He is behind Kylian Mbappe and Harry Kane, who lead the market at 11/2 and 13/2, respectively, in the betting.
Both Mbappe and Kane have won the Golden Boot; Mbappe did it at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, while Kane won it at the 2018 competition in Russia.
In the meantime, Spanish sensation Lamine Yamal is rated as the fifth favorite at 16/1, while Lionel Messi and Mikel Oyarzabal are joint fourth favorites at 14/1 for those seeking a somewhat riskier investment.
