Impact Sivera delivered a solid performance against Atletico Madrid on Sunday, making four saves but conceding one goal, extending his streak to five consecutive matches without a clean sheet.

Lucas Boye - Out to face Villarreal Boye (undisclosed) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Villarreal.

Impact Boye is out for Saturday's clash against Villarreal as he continues to deal with discomfort. The striker had been a regular starter for Alaves this season but was already limited to a bench role in the last match. In his absence, Toni Martinez is set to lead the attack.

Lucas Boye - Late call against Villarreal Boye (undisclosed) is a late call for Saturday's clash against Villarreal, coach Eduardo Coudet said in the press conference. "We will wait for the last moment for Lucas."

Impact Boye is dealing with some discomfort and will be a late fitness call ahead of Saturday's clash against Villarreal. The striker has been a regular starter for Alaves this season but his discomfort left him start on the bench in the last game. If Boye had to miss some time, Toni Martinez will be the one leading the attack.

Mariano Diaz - Not in plans anymore Mariano is fit to play but remains out of the plans of coach Eduardo Coudet moving forward, according to Estadio Deportivo.

Impact Mariano is not in the plans of coach Eduardo Coudet anymore since the striker confronted the coach after figuring out that he will be a substitute in the cup game against Sevilla. Mariano is fit to play but his contributions with his new club has been very limited and will likely be asked to find a new club in the coming months.

Moussa Diarra - Fit to play, not in plans Diarra is fit to play but remains out of the plans of coach Eduardo Coudet moving forward, according to Estadio Deportivo.

Impact Diarra is not in the plans of coach Eduardo Coudet anymore since the defender confronted the coach after figuring out that he will be a substitute in the cup game against Sevilla. Diarra is fit to play but unlikely to return to the match squad for the time being after losing his starting role to Youssef Enriquez earlier during the campaign.

Youssef Enriquez - Sends six crosses in draw Enriquez registered one shot (zero on goal), six crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Oviedo.

Impact Enriquez opened the season as a backup to Moussa Diarra on the left flank but has established himself in a starting role. The defender has racked up six chances created, 26 crosses and 18 clearances in his eight starts this season, so he's shown he can make a two-way impact when given enough minutes. All signs point to him staying as Alaves' primary option at left-back until further notice.

Pablo Ibanez - Active as playmaking threat Ibanez recorded three shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Oviedo.

Impact Ibanez didn't find the back of the net with any of his three shots, but there's a strong argument to say he was one of the most dangerous players for Alaves. That said, he's a holding midfielder who doesn't stand out in any particular category, so his fantasy upside should remain fairly low in most formats.

Lucas Boye - Scores impressive free kick Boye scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Oviedo.

Impact Boye was the reason Alaves managed to escape with a point from this game, as he scored an impressive free kick midway through the second half. Boye has established him as Alaves' main striker when healthy, and he's up to four goals across 13 appearances (10 starts) this season.

JANUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Antonio Sivera - Makes five saves in draw Sivera had five saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Oviedo.

Impact Sivera couldn't stop a shot from Federico Vinas from close range, although to be fair, very few goalkeepers in the world would've stopped that. Sivera has recorded just one clean sheet in his last nine appearances, so he doesn't carry a lot of fantasy upside overall.
