To be the top goalscorer at the World Cup, a player must not only be great, but it helps if he plays for a team that is expected to go deep into the tournament.
Brazil and Argentina are the two top favorites to win the Tournament. The two favorites to be the top goalscorer are from those countries as well as five of the top eight favorites.
That is also why there are no Americans in the top 40.
Clint Dempsey and Jozy Altidore are both 150/1 to be the top goalscorer in the tournament.
