One of the best markets to bet on is the top scorer market, so we’ll be offering our take on which Chelsea player will lead the attack in 2024-25. Cole Palmer topped the ranks for Chelsea last season with 22 goals, helping his team finish off at 6th position on the Premier League table. Let’s see who’s likely to lead the way next season.
Most Likely Players to Become Chelsea’s Top Scorers in 2024/2025
Cole Palmer
Palmer had the best season of his career last season, scoring 22 goals in the EPL, coming in just five goals behind Man City’s Erling Haaland. He netted an impressive 29 goals across all competitions and 15 assists. His stats show that he’s an outstanding player who can create chances and score goals.
Cole Palmer has been crucial to Chelsea, which started last season on a shaky note, but they were able to find their footing in the later half of the season. The 22-year-old arrived at Stamford Bridge from Man City at the start of the season and quickly stole the show with consistently high performances. If he remains in top form, he’s the most likely to take home the crown of top scorer among his squadmates in 2024-25 as well.
Nicolas Jackson
This striker made his way to Chelsea from Spanish side Villareal in June 2023 and ended the season, having netted 14 EPL goals and a total of 19 across all competitions. Jackson established himself as a top player in the La Liga club and has solidified that status in his season at Chelsea. It feels like there’s much more he can give, and he’s a good bet to become the top scorer for the Blues come 2025.
Raheem Sterling
The 29-year-old winger has played two seasons for the Blues, during which time he scored double figures for the team. Although significantly behind Palmer in goals last season (at 8 goals), the England international’s offensive attributes are undeniable. He is able to thrive in a midfield position or as a forward. On the field, Sterling displays a combo of skill, speed, and timing that is necessary to convert.
Odds and Other Predictions
The new season begins in July 2024. Fixtures have already been scheduled, and odds are currently available. Coming into the new season, there are lots of advantages for those who choose to bet on Chelsea matches. Several new legs were signed onto the team at the start of last season – the likely cause of their disappointing start. However, by the end of it, they seemed to have found a pretty good rhythm, finishing off in sixth position on the table and winning all their last 5 matches.
The Blues aren’t favourites to win the EPL, but they’ve good odds of finishing in the top four on the table. They’ve equally got good chances in competitions like the FA Cup and Carabao Cup.
Only a handful of strikers can consistently deliver the best finishes throughout the season, reaching those two-figure goals. So, betting on the top scorer isn’t as long of a shot as other futures bets. Our bet is on Cole Palmer. The likes of Jackson and Sterling can offer up some equally unforgettable football moments.
