As he is eased back into action for Valencia CF after injury, Rodrigo Moreno comes into the team's game against Getafe CF not just amongst the club's most prolific marksmen, but also as one of the top assist providers in Europe's 'big five' leagues.
Rodrigo has set up his teammates on seven occasions, the most recent a flick-on with his head for Carlos Soler to score the winning goal against Celta Vigo.
The only LaLiga player with a superior number of assists is Leo Messi of FC Barcelona, with eight.
In the comparison of players in the Spanish, English, German, Italian and French top flights, Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) leads the way with 15 assists, followed by Thomas Müller (Bayern Munich) and Jadon Sancho (Borussia Dortmund) with 12.
Getafe are the first team against whom Rodrigo scored a goal for Valencia CF, on Matchday 4 of the 2014/15 season. The Madrid-based side are the team to have received the most goals from the Spain international, with a total of five.
