The best of this certainly is likely to be the fight between the two No. 9s in the opposing sides. One brings the tradition and class of the English giant Liverpool FC while the other represents the flair and formidability of Catalan giant, FC Barcelona. Rhian Brewster is carrying the aspirations of the English brigade while Abel Ruiz is the Spanish marksman.

Brewster has dominated the headlines so far, scoring two hat-tricks in successive matches while Ruiz has been the main source of goals for the Spaniards. What makes Brewster more effective inside the box is his uncanny goal-poaching ability that comes from a sense of getting the markers on the wrong side.
