The battle for the Pichichi between Lewandowski and Benzema: Here’s what each of them has left in La Liga

Spain’s top two scorers face off for prestigious award

The end-of-season battle for the Pichichi Trophy is hotter than ever. Karim Benzema’s prolific comeback brings him closer to Robert Lewandowski, who has been the undisputed leader for most of the season, although his position now looks far less secure.

With his goal against Real Betis, Robert Lewandowski has now scored 19 goals in La Liga Santander this season. The Pole scored in back-to-back games against Rayo and Betis and regained some momentum after faltering in front of goal.
With his three goals against Almeria, Benzema is now less than a goal behind the Barcelona striker. The Frenchman has scored two hat-tricks in recent games, the first against Real Valladolid and against Rubi’s team on matchday 32 at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.

This attack for the Pichichi trophy sees Lewandowski compete directly with the French striker in the final weeks of the season.
