Serie A Top Scorer Race: Thuram Closes Gap on Retegui as Lautaro Struggles
Marcus Thuram’s late goal in Inter’s 6-0 victory over Lazio at the Olimpico has brought his Serie A tally to 11, just one behind Mateo Retegui, who has failed to score in the last three matches. This performance has improved Thuram’s odds with bookmakers in the race for top scorer, moving from 5 to 3.25. While Retegui remains the favorite, his odds have slightly increased from 1.75 to 2.25. Moise Kean rounds out the top three favorites at 7.
Lautaro Martinez’s goal drought continues, with the striker now goalless in five consecutive games. The likelihood of him retaining his top scorer title from last season has diminished, with odds lengthening from 10 to 15, now level with Taty Castellanos. In contrast, Dusan Vlahovic ended his six-game scoreless run with a penalty against Venezia, though his odds remain steady at 10. He trails Ademola Lookman, who is offered at 8, but leads Romelu Lukaku, whose odds stand at 12.
