Tonight is the biggest night in the football fraternity as two of the world’s best go head to head yet again for the prestigious Ballon D’or award. Christiano Ronaldo has won two straight Ballons D’Or but thinks will most likely change today as Lionel Messi is clearly the favorite to win the award after Barcelona’s treble last season. Ronaldo and Neymar will be his competitors and it will be interesting to see who ends up being the runner-up. If Messi finally wins this year’s Ballon D’Or, it would be his fifth award.

James Rodríguez, Sergio Ramos, Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo will be the Real Madrid players travelling to Zurich for a ceremony that will start at 18:30 CET. Keep in mind that the winner will not be announced until 19:50 CET, as always.
