After remaining at the top of the pile for three editions of FIFA, Cristiano Ronaldo is finally expected to lose his top spot.

Ronaldo has been rated 94 in FIFA 17, 18 and 19, but that rating could dip after what has been an average season by his standards.

EA are likely to hand him a rating of 93, which is good enough for second spot.

#1 Lionel Messi - 94

As expected, Lionel Messi takes the top spot. Messi shared the top spot with Ronaldo in FIFA 19, with both superstars rated at 94.

However, after a stellar season in which he is comfortably leading the race for the European Golden Shoe and also helping Barcelona in their quest for a treble, EA are likely to place him on a pedestal of his own.

While his pace rating of 88 might come down a notch, expect his shooting stats - currently rated at 91 - to rise.

Messi is also among the leading assist-providers in Europe's top leagues, which could prompt EA to raise his passing rating from 88 to 90 at the very least.
