#1. Sergio Aguero
After seemingly being regarded as surplus to requirements at Manchester City a year ago, Aguero has since reinvented his game to fit into Pep Guardiola's system. After being dropped for the start of the 2017-2018 season, Aguero returned and scored a stunning 21 goals in 25 league matches.
Despite recently turning 30, the player has retained his blistering pace. Manchester City's rotation will also benefit the Argentine and keep him fresh for key Premier League games. Aguero's biggest advantage in the Golden Boot race is, of course, the fact that he is playing on the team that is easily the best in the league.
With Kevin De Bruyne and David Silva pulling the strings behind him, Aguero can expect to win the Golden Boot title for the second time in his career.
