Barcelona’s Lionel Messi has topped the Sky Sports La Liga Power Rankings for a second week running.
Messi scored at hat-trick against Espanyol a fortnight ago and
assisted Paulinho’s match-winner during a 2-1 win at Getafe, while
team-mate Jordi Alba slipped five places to No 8.
Real Sociedad midfielder Asier Illarramendi also held his runner-up
spot, despite suffering a 3-1 defeat to his former employers Real
Madrid on Sunday.
Villareal duo Cedric Bakambu (No 3, up 209 places) and Samu
Castillejo (No 6, up 35 places) were also among the top performers, with
Bakambu scoring twice to help his side ease past Alaves with a 3-0
win. Jan Oblak kept his second successive clean sheet for Atletico
Madrid during a 1-0 win against Malaga, while midfielder Koke dropped
three places to No 7.
Real Betis winger Joaquin soared 102 places up the chart, breaking
the deadlock against Deportivo and hitting a match-winning second to
secure a 2-1 victory. Sevilla’s Clement Lenglet (No 9, up six places)
and Sergio Rico (No 10, up four places) both entered the top 10
following a 1-0 win at Girona.
The Power Rankings methodology reflects a player’s performance
over the last five matchdays by awarding points to players for 32
different stats. Only games from this season will be factored before
matchday five.
