Sevilla v FC Barcelona - Copa del Rey Quarter Final
Jordi Alba is of the highest rated left-backs in the game but his performances on the pitch have surprisingly questioned EA's rating. The Spanish defender has been incredible in both, the attack and defence, and hence is in contention to get an upgrade in February.

Alba has a base rating of 87 in the game with 2 other cards rated at 88 – one UCL and one RTTF. The former Valencia star has been one of the main reasons for Barcelona's incredible run in La Liga and it would be a huge mistake ETA do not give him an upgrade next month.
While it won't be a massive push, ES should give him an upgrade to 88 – on par with Real Madrid's Marcelo who has been bang average this season. With the base ratings going up, his UCL and RTTF card will also be getting an upgrade by the same margin.
