Bayern forward Pernille Harder and Real Madrid's Signe Bruun are the current frontrunners 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. That took her tally to five, matched by Bruun when she made it three strikes against Celtic this term with a double in Scotland on Matchday 5.
Harder and Bruun are one goal ahead of Barcelona's Clàudia Pina, Lyon forward Kadidiatou Diani and Wolfsburg pair Alexandra Popp and Sveindís Jónsdóttir, who scored all four of her goals as a substitute at home to Roma on Matchday 5.
A nine-strong group of players lie one goal back on three goals apiece, including Mariona Caldentey, Caroline Graham Hansen and Khadija Shaw.
