Having reached the semi-finals in 2018 and the final of Euro 2020, there’s a genuine belief amongst England supporters that the long wait for another World Cup could soon be over.
England head to Qatar as one of the favorites, having cruised through qualifying undefeated with eight wins and two draws from their 10 games. But 2022 has seen the Three Lions struggle, winning just two of their eight games this year, neither of which were competitive matches.
Gareth Southgate will be hoping for a strong start from his squad as they face Iran, the USA and then Wales. And there is every chance England could rack up a few goals over these three games.
England captain Harry Kane is bound to be a popular bet to notch up the goals in Qatar. He landed the Golden Boot in Russia with six goals, five of which came in the group stage.
And the Tottenham striker has already hit double-figures in the Premier League. He currently sits on 51 England goals from 75 appearances.
But you won’t get rich backing Kane to top England goalscorer at the World Cup unless you’re willing to risk a big stake – he’s priced around -150 odds to be the England top scorer depending on the sportsbook you use.
Jude Bellingham England Top Scorer Odds
However, given the sometimes unpredictable nature of tournament play, a small wager on Jude Bellingham could offer some betting value against Kane’s short price.
One of my biggest dreams growing up was to play at a world cup, I’m so grateful to have been given the chance to do so. Will give everything to try and make it a tournament that the country can be proud of. Let’s go.🏴❤️ pic.twitter.com/fMtNRSnvMx

The ex-Birmingham City star is thriving at Dortmund and will surely be a definite starter for England in the group stages, given Kalvin Phillips is only just returning from injury.
He’s bagged nine goals in 22 appearances for his club this season via various types of finishes, showcasing his all-around attacking ability.
Bellingham will fancy his chances of getting on the scoreboard in the group stages and looks overpriced at 33/1 to top the scoring charts for England.
