The Premier League Golden Boot race is heating up as we begin the New Year.
Harry Kane, who topped the scoring charts in successive campaigns between 2015-17, has his sights set on another Golden Boot as he sits top of the standings as 2019 begins.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang started 2019 much as he finished 2018, scoring against Fulham in Arsenal's 4-1 win to temporarily lead the race.
Mohamed Salah will have the chance to go ahead though when Premier League leaders Liverpool face champions Manchester City at the Etihad on Thursday night.
