Recently, it has been supposed that the Einstein-Gauss- Bonnet theory coupled with scalar field (EGBS) maybe appropriately admit physically viable models of celestial phenomena such that the scalar field effect is active in standard four dimensions. We consider the spherically symmetric and static configuration of the compact star and explain the consequences of the EGBS theory in the frame of stellar modeling. In our formulation, for any given static profile of the energy density ρ with the spherical symmetry and the arbitrary equation of state (EoS) of matter, we can construct the model which reproduces the profile. Because the profile of the energy density determines the mass M and the radius Rs of the compact star, an arbitrary relation between the mass M and the radius Rs of the compact star can be realized by adjusting the potential and the coefficient function of the Gauss-Bonnet term in the action of EGBS theory. This could be regarded as a degeneracy between the EoS and the functions characterizing the model, which tells that only the mass-radius relation is insufficient to constrain the model. For example, we investigate a novel class of analytic spherically symmetric interior solutions by the polytropic EoS. We discuss our model in detail and show that it is in agreement with the necessary physical conditions required for any realistic compact star approving that EGBS theory is consistent with observations.
