Gabigol? See the Brasileirão's most clinical players | OneFootball

Brasileirão reached the FIFA dates in September and October with 28 rounds played. So far, 739 goals have been scored in 277 matches. As a result, Brasileirão maintains an average of 2.67 goals per match. In this way, it is possible to say that the strikers are some of the main standouts of the competition in 2026. Names such as Kevin Viveros, Gabigol, Pedro, Neymar, and even Alan Lescano stand out for their effectiveness on the pitch.

For this reason, RTI Esporte Agencyprepared a survey with the top 5 most effective players in the Brazilian Championship so far. It is important to say that this list is not simply a ranking of who scored the most goals or who was involved in the most direct goal plays. Rather, it is about players who needed fewer minutes to score or take part in goals.

However, by looking at the top 5, it is possible to see that, basically, the Brazilian Championship’s top scorers are part of this select group. In other words, besides putting the ball in the net, these players also know how to be efficient and make the most of the chances created. The data comes from Sofascore.

# 1 Kevin Viveros

His average is 0.57 goals per match. The striker averages 2.21 shots per game, with a final average rating of 7 points per match in the Brasileirão.

#4 Alan Lescano

As mentioned earlier, the survey is based on effectiveness. That is why Vasco’s Alan Lescano appears in fourth place. He has played two matches and scored one goal in the Brasileirão. Therefore, his average is 0.5 goals per match, with 1.5 shots per game. His final average rating is 7.65. This number, under another analysis, could place him as the most effective player in the Brasileirão, but other data is taken into account in the final total.
