What the Premier League are preparing if Son Heung-min beats Mohamed Salah to Golden Boot

It could be a momentous day for Son Heung-min as the Tottenham ace looks to shoot his team to a place in the Champions League and also win the Premier League Golden Boot. Spurs are in the driving seat to seal fourth spot ahead of rivals Arsenal as they just need to avoid defeat against Norwich City at Carrow Road due to their two-point advantage and superior goal difference.

In terms of the Golden Boot, Son is on 21 for the season in the league and he trails Liverpool's Mohamed Salah by one goal. Looking like the Egyptian was going to run away with the gong a couple of months ago, Son has closed in on the Liverpool man after hitting ten goals in his last nine Premier League appearances.

Given his superb record in front of goal of late, the South Korean will be extremely confident of adding to his tally and earning the award ahead of Salah. What could also help Son out is that there are question marks over whether Salah will feature for the Reds on Sunday afternoon due to the groin issue he sustained in last Saturday's FA Cup final over Chelsea.
