Villa’s favourite victims

Jesús Carrillo

Barca’s latest signing David Villa has a fine goalscoring pedigree in the top flight and is regularly in the reckoning for the leading scorer award.

His favourite victims appear to be Seville, Betis, Osasuna and Deportivo, against all of whom he’s scored 10 goals in his league career.

Villa has bagged a total of 138 goals in the top flight with Zaragoza and Valencia, and although the two Seville clubs, Osasuna and Deportivo are his favourite victims, he’s also scored five apiece against Barca and Real Madrid, with Valdes and Casillas both on the receiving end of his strikes.

Highest Spanish scorer last season

Villa scored 21 goals in 33 league games for Valencia last season, with three against Osasuna and one each against Deportivo and Real Madrid, whilst failing to find the net against Seville and Barca. Villa was the leading Spanish scorer in La Liga, finishing behind Leo Messi and Madrid’s Ronaldo and Higuain.

First up, Seville

David Villa will have the chance to renew acquaintances with one of his favourite victims, Seville in the Spanish Super Cup this August - Barca’s opening official game of the season.
