After leaving Bayern Munich for Barcelona, Robert Lewandowski continue with his goal scoring attitude even though things are looking tough at the Camp Nou.

Although he wasn't in the Scorers' sheet in their last game, Lewandowski remains the favourite going by his pedigree in the competition. He will always be among the best even if he doesn't make the number 1 spot. He remain a contender until the last game in the Champions League.

PSG's Kylian Mbappe is also on 3 goals as Dortmund's Bellingham, Ajax's Kudus' and Lewandowski of Barcelona, he is one of the big guns to watch out for after signalling his intentions of winning the highest goal scorer in the Champions League over the past two seasons. The French international has got the same love for scoring goals as Haaland, Lewandowski and Sane, he will definitely be a contender to defeat in the Champions League this season.

For Liverpool's Mohamed Salah and PSG's Lionel Messi, nothing seems difficult to them as they can always come up with great goals in a very short period of time if the chance is right.
