Valencia's target man Rodrigo Moreno

Valencia is unbeaten in the league thanks to the goals from Rodrigo Moreno. The former Real Madrid man moved to Valencia on a permanent deal in 2015 after a brief stint with the Portuguese giants Benfica. He made only 19 appearances in the league last season, scoring 5 times in the process.

He got off to a stunning start to the 2017/18 campaign as he made 11 appearances for Valencia in La Liga. He scored 7 times in the league so far and assisted 3 more. Currently, he is fourth on the goalscoring charts only behind Messi, Zaza, and Bakambu.

Valencia are already done playing against Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, and Sevilla, Rodrigo will have some easy games in the next few weeks to increase his goal tally. He will definitely not make it easy for Lionel Messi.
