Dark clouds are again gathering over David Villa as the absolute leader of the FTBL ranking. This time, he will have to prove that he is really worth the #1 spot in the Real Madrid - Valencia matchup. The plank to overcome is the magic number 13 points.
Wayne Rooney trails Villa by 20 points, yet that doesn't guarantee the Spaniard the leadership. Rooney will face Aston Villa with a plank of 6.03 points, which means that, in case of a better game from Rooney's Manchester United side the Valencia's one, the figures add up.
Morever, the Spain – Russian matchup, in which Villa was widely rewarded because of his hat-trick, went out from his rating history taking out 5.88 rating points from his personal score, what also doesn't help at all.
To remark something positive, we must say that Villa has scored for 4 matches in a row, and if he did it again on the fifth matchup, we would get a big bonus that will help him against Rooney's threaten.
