Villa has been exceptional so far in the tournament and it would no surprise to see him lead the side to the Final, he has been cutting in from the left and at times he has proven virtually unplayable. He will have a tough task on his hands in the Semi-Finals though where he will face an in-form and strong German side, Germany have been the surprise package of the World Cup so far and they will fancy their chances of knocking over Spain in Durban. Running the midfield for Germany is Bastian Schweinsteiger who despite not scoring the goals, has been the heart of the team in their wins over England and Germany. The Bayern midfield is looking great value for the Golden Ball and can be backed at a good looking 5/1 with Paddy Power to snatch the award.

The Dutch have been impressive throughout the World Cup having won their first five games in South Africa with Wesley Sneijder the engine room of the team, the Inter Milan player has chipped in with four goals so far as well as being the creative force in midfield.
