One of two players to score on each of the first 5 Matchdays of the UEFA 2019-20 Champions League, the other being Erling-Braut Haaland, Robert Lewandowski's 10 goals in 5 games (2 goals per game) keeps him on course to break Cristiano Ronaldo's record (17) of most goals in a Champions League season. If the Polish striker maintains his prolific goal rate in the second half of the season, and provided Bayern are to progress deep in this season's competition, Lewandowski could equal or go past Ronaldo's record.

# 3: Win a 5th Torjägerkanone

With 19 goals in 17 Bundesliga games, Lewandowski leads the scoring charts in the 2019-20

At 19 goals in 17 Bundesliga games, Lewandowski is 1 clear of closest challenger Timo Werner of Leipzig. Considering his consistent prolific domestic run in the last few seasons, few would bet against Lewandowski winning a 5th Torjägerkanone at the end of the 2019-20 season.
