Race for the Golden Boot

One question that is always on every supporter's mind is which striker will deliver and take home the coveted Golden Boot.

Often, the talisman comes from a team that goes on to achieve promotion, with Joel Piroe picking up the award for champions Leeds United last season.

Fresh off a 19-goal haul in League One last season, Birmingham City's Jay Stansfield will be one to keep an eye on as he hopes to fire the Blues to back-to-back triumphs.

For the freshly relegated sides, Ipswich Town will be hoping Sammie Szmodics can repeat his incredible 27-goal tally from the last time he played in the second-tier for Blackburn Rovers.

Southampton will be looking to Adam Armstrong, who scored 21 goals when they last achieved promotion two years ago. Cameron Archer is also.

Their brand new talisman from the USA, Damion Downs, is also an intriguing prospect.

As is his fellow countryman Haji Wright, at Coventry City, who will be looking to build on the 12 goals he netted last season.
