Which attacking trios have been simply unstoppable this season?

We've perused Europe's top five leagues and the Champions League to discern the 20 most lethal tridents in football, based purely on form this season.

In selecting the players for comparison, we have selected a club's most-used front three where possible (such as at Manchester City and Liverpool); for those who favour a front two (all of La Liga's top five, for example) we brought the most productive midfielder or winger in to complete the set.

Both domestic and European performances were considered.

*Please note: The statistics for each club and player are for league matches only. They were not solely used to determine the order (it is not fair to measure players by this strict medium) and are present for contextual reasons.
