Nottingham Forest forward Chris Wood has enjoyed a stunning start to the Premier League season, scoring eight goals in their opening 10 matches.
Only Erling Haaland has scored more than Wood in the top flight this season, with the Man City forward finding the back of the net 11 times.
The 32-year-old's form has been sustained with only Haaland and Watkins boasting more non penalty goals than the 21 he has managed since the start of last season.
Eight of those goals have come from headers, the joint most in the top flight during that period - tied with Watkins.
