MLS League is on, and despite the 2024 EURO or 2024 Copa America, the top tier of American soccer will continue this summer. Now, the odds for the MLS top goalscorer are different than at the start of the campaign, though, the names at the top are the same.
Before Betting on the 2024 MLS Top Goalscorer
Lionels Messi and Luis Suarez are the top two picks for this award. Inter Miami’s duo has a long and rich history of working together, dating back to the days when they ruled Europe while wearing Barcelona’s kit. At the moment of writing this text, which is on May 9th, each of them has 12 goals scored, though, with the note that Messi has 14 assists. Therefore, it’s not odd to see them topping the favorites list.
The guy who follows them is Christian Arango, the Colombian striker who leads the way in the goalscorer list, hitting the target 16 times. Real Salt Lake is one of the better units this year, and the reason for that is his productivity.
| Team | 2024 MLS Cup Odds |
|---|---|
| Lionel Messi | +225 |
| Christian Arango | +235 |
| Luis Suarez | +300 |
| Christian Benteke | +700 |
| Denis Bounaga | +1200 |
Belgian veteran Christian Benteke is second with 13 goals, but he has an edge over other players. Unlike South Americans, he won’t miss matches during the Copa America, meaning that the DC United striker might break out on top of the list and create a solid gap between him and the rest of the rivals.
LA FC’s Denis Bouanga is behind, and he separates the echelon of the top favorites from the rest of the league. Gabon player has 10 goals, the same as Daniel Gazdag, but his chances are way better.
As stated, you will need to see which players have international obligations, with EURO and Copa America just around the corner. Furthermore, the Olympics are also on the menu this summer, and they might have an impact on all this as well.
