Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti says he cannot see Lionel Messi beating Cristiano Ronaldo to the Ballon d'Or.
The attacking stars have shared the previous seven editions of football's top individual prize and both were named on the 23-man shortlist for the 2014 award in October.
Messi beat Ronaldo in the race to draw level with Raul's all-time Champions League goalscoring record this week, but Ancelotti does not believe the Barcelona ace will beat either the Portugal captain or one of Germany's World Cup-winning heroes to the trophy.
