#4 Cristhian Stuani
Stuani, who plays for Girona, has been a revelation in the La Liga this season. He has scored an impressive 11 goals in 14 matches in LaLiga this season so far and should be hoping to increase his tally considerably in the upcoming matches.
He is the primary reason why his club is inside the top 10 in the league table after 17 matches. Stuani remains a typical penalty box striker who has the ability to score from a very tight space.
Stuani's chances of winning the Pichichi would also depend upon Girona's overall performance as a team in the upcoming matches. However, if his teammates are able to create enough scoring opportunities for him, the 32-year-old Uruguayan can actually give the likes of Messi and Suarez a stiff competition.
