Bundesliga Top Scorer Predictions, Odds, Picks 2022/23

• Robert Lewandowski finished as the Bundesliga’s top goalscorer in 2021/22
• The Poland international and Erling Haaland have both left the Bundesliga
• The season will take a break in November and December for the World Cup

The 2022/23 Bundesliga season is just around the corner. The action will get under way on August 5 and will conclude on May 27, with the campaign due to take a break in November and December to make space in the calendar for the 2022 World Cup.

Bayern Munich are strong favorites to win the Bundesliga title, but the race for the top goalscorer award looks to be wide open. Robert Lewandowski and Erling Haaland both left German soccer in the summer, joining Barcelona in La Liga and Manchester City in the Premier League respectively. That leaves the path clear for a new face to scoop the prize this time around.

Bundesliga Top Scorer Odds 2022/23

The odds for the Bundesliga Top Goalscorer 2022/23 are taken from the DraftKings Sportsbook.

Patrik Schick is the favorite to finish as the Bundesliga top goalscorer in the 2022/23 campaign. The Czech Republic international was second only to Robert Lewandowski in the charts last time out, and he will be among the strikers licking his lips at the Pole’s departure.

Christopher Nkunku looks like excellent value at the price listed in the table above. The RB Leipzig frontman was linked with Chelsea and Manchester United in the summer but will be at the Red Bull Arena for at least another season. Nkunku is a huge talent who found the net 20 times last term.

Sadio Mane and Serge Gnabry will be tasked with filling Lewandowski’s boots at Bayern this term, while Karim Adeyemi will be expected to make up some of the goals Borussia Dortmund lost when they sold Erling Haaland. His new team-mate Sebastien Haller would have been in this list had he not been diagnosed with a testicular tumor during pre-season.

Anthony Modeste of Koln and Andre Silva of RB Leipzig are considered as dark horses, while the group of outsiders according the sportsbooks includes Stuttgart’s Sasa Kalajdzic, Hoffenheim’s Andrej Kramaric and Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani.
