Robert Lewandowski Leads LaLiga Scoring Race After Matchday 31

After the game between Leganés and FC Barcelona on Matchday 31 of LaLiga 2024/25, Robert Lewandowski maintained his lead in the race for the Pichichi Trophy. The Polish striker, although quiet in the 0-1 away win, still sits on top of the goal charts with 25 goals. Kylian Mbappé, trailing with 22 goals, endured a nightmare evening as he was sent off with a straight red card in Real Madrid’s 0-1 win over Alavés.

His suspension could see him miss up to four matches, potentially widening Lewandowski’s advantage. Behind them, Ante Budimir of Osasuna remains in third place with 16 goals, followed by Barcelona’s Raphinha and Athletic Club’s Oihan Sancet on 13 each. Ayoze Pérez (Villarreal) and Julián Álvarez (Atlético Madrid) have 12 goals apiece, while a group of players including Vinicius Jr., Sorloth, Lukebakio, and Kike García are on 11.

Barça’s Ferran Torres rose to 9 goals, while Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo both remain on 7, although Yamal’s tally might be revised to 6 due to an own goal ruling. With Mbappé sidelined, Lewandowski now has a golden opportunity to secure the top scorer title in the remaining weeks.
