Kylian Mbappe is the 5/1 favorite to finish as the Champions League's top scorer, with Erling Haaland at 11/2 and Harry Kane at 6/1, per Bet365 prices listed on Betting Lounge's odds comparison as of Oct. 6. That leaves the Champions League top scorer odds 2026-27 board with three strikers clustered together at the top and a gap to the chasing pack. One league phase matchday is in the books, and Matchday 2 starts Oct. 13.
Mbappe won the award last season with 15 goals in 11 games, per bet365 News, his second Champions League top scorer title.
Champions League Top Scorer Odds 2026-27: The Board
The Bet365 and Betway Oct. 6 prices below are from Betting Lounge's comparison, read Oct. 6. The Sept. 17 Betway column comes from Goal's Sept. 17 article (South African edition), with Betway's decimal odds converted to fractions so the two dates can be compared directly.
| Player | Club | Bet365, Oct. 6 | Betway, Oct. 6 | Betway, Sept. 17 (Goal) | |-|-|-|-|-| | Kylian Mbappe | Real Madrid | 5/1 | 5/1 | 5/1 (6.00) | | Erling Haaland | Manchester City | 11/2 | 11/2 | 11/2 (6.50) | | Harry Kane | Bayern Munich | 6/1 | 6/1 | 6/1 (7.00) | | Ousmane Dembele | Paris Saint-Germain | 10/1 | 9/1 | 9/1 (10.00) | | Ferran Torres | Paris Saint-Germain | 10/1 | 10/1 | 10/1 (11.00) | | Raphinha | Barcelona | 12/1 | 10/1 | 12/1 (13.00) | | Lamine Yamal | Barcelona | 20/1 | 20/1 | Not listed | | Alexander Isak | Liverpool | 25/1 | 25/1 | Not listed | | Michael Olise | Bayern Munich | 25/1 | 22/1 | Not listed | | Ermedin Demirovic | VfB Stuttgart | 25/1 | 22/1 | Not listed | | Serhou Guirassy | Borussia Dortmund | 25/1 | 28/1 | Not listed |
Implied probability is 1 divided by (fractional odds plus 1). Mbappe's 5/1 works out to about 16.7%, Haaland's 11/2 to 15.4% and Kane's 6/1 to 14.3%. Together the top three add up to roughly 46.3% in implied probability at Bet365.
The Betway comparison shows how little has changed. Mbappe, Haaland, Kane, Dembele and Torres sit at the same Betway price they carried on Sept. 17. Raphinha is the one notable mover, shortening at Betway from 12/1 to 10/1 between the two snapshots.
Prices are not uniform across the market, either. Sky Bet and Paddy Power both had Mbappe at 13/5 on Oct. 6, against 5/1 at Bet365, while those two books listed Demirovic at 45/1 compared with Bet365's 25/1.
The Top Contenders
Kylian Mbappe, Real Madrid (5/1). Mbappe opened the league phase by scoring in Real Madrid's 2-1 win over Inter on Sept. 8, per ESPN's match data. bet365 News, in a piece updated Sept. 8, listed him on 70 Champions League goals, sixth on the competition's all-time list. He scored 15 goals in 11 games last season and also won the award in 2023-24, sharing it with Kane on eight goals, per Betting Lounge's winners table.
Erling Haaland, Manchester City (11/2). Haaland scored both goals in City's 2-0 win at Porto on Sept. 8. His recent European numbers are the soft spot in his case: per bet365 News, he scored eight, eight and six in his last three Champions League campaigns after 12 in his debut season at City. He won the award outright in 2022-23 with 12 goals.
Harry Kane, Bayern Munich (6/1). Kane scored once in Bayern's 5-0 win over Bodo/Glimt on Sept. 10, a game in which Michael Olise scored twice, per ESPN. bet365 News lists Kane's European totals at eight, 11 and 14 over the last three seasons, and his 14 last term left him one goal behind Mbappe.
The PSG pair, Dembele and Torres (10/1 each). Paris Saint-Germain's 6-1 win over Slovan Bratislava on Sept. 9 produced a Torres hat-trick and two goals from Dembele. Goal described Dembele as the current Ballon d'Or holder in its Sept. 17 piece.
Early Leaders After Matchday 1
Two players lead the scoring chart after one round. Demirovic scored three in Stuttgart's 3-1 win over Viking FK on Sept. 9, and Torres matched him the same night against Slovan Bratislava, per ESPN's scoreboard data. Raphinha scored twice in Barcelona's 5-1 win over Feyenoord, while Haaland, Dembele and Olise are among the players on two.
Last season's numbers set the target. Per bet365 News, Kane finished on 14, with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Julian Alvarez and Anthony Gordon on 10 each, and bet365 News notes the expanded format gives top players the potential to play a maximum of 17 games. Betting Lounge's winners table shows the 2024-25 award was shared by Guirassy and Raphinha on 13.
Betting Angles and Value
At 5/1, Mbappe needs better than a 16.7% chance to be worth backing, and he has won this award in two of the last three seasons per Betting Lounge's table. The price leaves little margin, so the better approach is to take the best available number rather than the shortest, since the gap between 5/1 and 13/5 is significant on a market that runs the full season.
Haaland at 11/2 asks you to trust a scoring rate in Europe that has dipped in recent seasons. Kane at 6/1 has the steadier recent Champions League profile of the two, with an upward trend in goals across each of the last three campaigns.
Further down, the PSG duo share the same club's chances. Demirovic at 25/1 with Bet365 (45/1 at Sky Bet and Paddy Power), per Betting Lounge's Oct. 6 comparison, is the early-leader option, though his value depends on Stuttgart reaching the knockout rounds to add games.

City against PSG is the fixture that matters most for this market, because it could put Haaland on the same pitch as Dembele and Torres.
