Take a look at the odds to be top goalscorer at the 2026 World Cup.
Even with an expanded 48-team, eight-game World Cup, it's unlikely Just Fontaine's record of 13 in a single tournament will ever be beaten, but double figures appears to be well within reach.
Kylian Mbappe was on five heading into the 2022 final before his hat-trick saw him move one clear of Lionel Messi, who himself bagged a brace on the night, and both started the 2026 edition in blistering fashion.
Messi scored five goals in his first two before coming off the bench against Jordan to add a sixth, and with a favourable run in the knockouts, the two-time Golden Ball winner is odds-on to add a first World Cup Golden Boot to his list of accolades.
Argentina will face Cape Verde in the round of 32 before taking on the winners of Australia and Egypt. Should they reach the quarter-finals, they will face one of Switzerland, Algeria, Colombia and Ghana.
France's draw has also opened up somewhat after Germany's shock defeat to Paraguay. Les Bleus are now scheduled to play Sweden, Paraguay and then either Canada or Morocco.
The chasing pack has now got work to do with Ousmane Dembele, Vinicius Junior and Erling Haaland two behind Messi, with Harry Kane and Matheus Cunha three behind.
Odds will display when market is available. Market settled on who scores the most goals at the 2026 World Cup. Dead heat rules apply. Penalty shoot-outs do not count.
