With no major international tournament this summer, the Ballon d’Or already looks set to be decided between just two players.
Lionel Messi is the early favourite to win the award for the sixth time, priced at 1/2 (1.50) with William Hill, which comes as little surprise considering his form in both La Liga and the Champions League.
The Argentine has netted six goals in as many European games in 2019, with a brace against Liverpool in the semi-final including a sumptuous 30-yard free-kick which gave Alisson no chance.
