Haaland goes into final day with five-goal lead and one hand on the trophy

Erling Haaland has one hand on the trophy in the race for the Castrol Golden Boot, sitting FIVE goals clear of his nearest challenger going into the final day of the season.

The Manchester City star has moved away from his rivals with a prolific spell of nine goals in his last six Premier League matches.

Haaland struck his 26th and 27th top-flight goals of the campaign in Tuesday's crucial 2-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur, which took Man City into top spot.

Chelsea's Cole Palmer scored his 22nd Premier League goal of the season in Wednesday's 2-1 win at Brighton & Hove Albion but surely has too much of a gap to make up with only one round of matches remaining.

Alexander Isak's challenge has also faded in the final straight, with the Newcastle United striker drawing a blank for the second match in a row in Wednesday's 3-2 defeat at Manchester United.
