With 2 months of games on the horizon, let’s see who are the players who scored the most goals in 2024 so far, to understand who is likely going to be on top of the ranking once the last match of the year has been played.

If you are interested in this type of analysis, I have written a few books where I go into the details of how to get the data, visualize and train a model to predict football results for the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga and the other major European national tournaments, complete with code examples.
