With the NWSL regular season wrapping up on October 31, let’s check in on the top three leaders for the prestigious Golden Boot award, given to the top goalscorer in the league. Each player has just one game left to play:

• Washington’s Ashley Hatch leads the charge with a total of 10 goals over 19 appearances for the club. Next up, she faces the Houston Dash on Oct. 31, looking to hold her No. 1 spot

  • Spirit to win +130 (bet $100 → win $130)

  • Hatch to score .5 goals +140 (bet $100 → win $140)

  • Hatch to win Golden Boot +180 (bet $100 → win $180)

• Next up comes OL Reign’s Bethany Balcer with nine goals over 21 appearances this season. She’ll look to drive up her total on Oct. 30 at Kansas City, though she hasn’t tallied a goal since over a month ago (Sept. 29 against Orlando Pride)

  • Reign to win -230 (bet $230 → win $100)

  • Balcer to score .5 goals +110 (bet $100 → win $110)

  • Balcer to win Golden Boot +700 (bet $100 → win $700)

• Houston’s Rachel Daly also boasts nine goals this season, even while sharing time between club and country. Daly will go head-to-head with Hatch as she tries to overtake the top spot and earn the honor

  • Dash to win +220 (bet $100 → win $220)

  • Daly to score .5 goals -130 (bet $100 → win $13)

  • Daly to win Golden Boot +700 (bet $100 → win $700)

• Three others are still in the hunt, Orlando’s Sydney Leroux, Gotham FC’s Ifeoma Onumonu

   and Margaret Purce (two games remaining) all tied with eight scores on the season

Let’s take this a step further:

Sure, you can bet on who will hoist the Golden Boot at the end of the regular season, but why not use that information to bet on the final matches of the regular season?
