Suarez has continued in his place at the 4th position in the race.After a hat-trick against Real Madrid at the end of October, the Uruguayan started November on similar note, scoring a brace against Rayo Vallecano, helping Barcelona seal a hard fought 3-2 win. In the following game against Real Betis, Suarez failed to score, as Barcelona endured a disappointing 3-4 defeat at home.
After the International Break, the Uruguayan failed to find the back of the net against Athletico Madrid. Last week, he picked up a knee injury in the Champions League tie against PSV Eindhoven, which kept him out of last weekend's game against Villareal. The Uruguayan is expected to be out until the middle of December with the injury, meaning that he might lose vital ground in this race.
Suarez has scored 9 goals from 13 games in La Liga and has recorded 36 shots so far, 22 of which have been on target. He averages a goal every 122 minutes this season, and at the start of December is 4th in the race to the La Liga Golden Boot.

Deepungsu is a veteran football journalist who has been covering daily transfer roundups and news for over six years at Sportskeeda. He has written over 8500 articles for the website, and has garnered over 19.5Million reads.
Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer's Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
