Bayern forward Pernille Harder is the early leader in the race to finish as UEFA Women's Champions League top scorer.
Harder, who took the prize while at Wolfsburg in 2018/19, struck a Matchday 1 hat-trick against Arsenal and added further goals away to Juventus and at home to Vålerenga. The Danish striker did not find the net in the return against the Norwegian side yet remains top.
Harder is one goal ahead of Clàudia Pina, an unused substitute for Barcelona away to St. Pölten on Matchday 4, and Lyon's Kadidiatou Diani, who grabbed two late goals in their victory against Roma last time out.
An eight-strong group of players lie one goal back on three goals apiece, including Mariona Caldentey, Caroline Graham Hansen, Alexandra Popp and Khadija Shaw.
