Goals Scored - 16

The Belgian has seen a turn in fortunes in the month of April, but it has not been enough to secure him a higher finish in this list. Hazard scored 3 goals from 5 games in the month, as he helped Chelsea stay well within contention for a top 4 finish. However, the Belgian is still lagging behind in the Golden Boot race and it is now next to impossible for him to get his hands on the coveted trophy by the end of the season.

Hazard started the month with a goal against Brighton in a 3-0 win. He followed that up with a brilliant brace against West Ham, as Chelsea won 2-0. Since then though, Hazard has failed to find the back of the net in the last 3 games. Chelsea have lost one and drawn 2 during that period and are still 5th in the Premier League Table.

The Belgian has 16 goals from 35 games this season, equalling his best return in the league. He has also registered 13 assists so far. Hazard is averaging a goal every 176 minutes played.
