Veteran Lazio striker Miroslav Klose has the best shot-to-goal ratio in Europe's five major leagues this season, a Goal.com study can reveal.

£ 38.00
Goal.com took the current five top scorers from the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1and the Bundesliga, and compared the number of shots they have had in their respective domestic leagues to the number of times they have found the back of the net.
Klose was the most efficient, converting 10 goals from his 31 shots at a success rate of 32.26per cent. Nice forward Dario Cvitanich comes in second with the same number of goals arriving from just one more effort on goal, while Atletico Madrid’s Radamel Falcao takes third place with 17 goals from 58attempts.
