Logs assist against Osasuna Berenguer provided one assist from one chance created and took five shots (one on goal) in 75 minutes of Monday's 3-1 win over Osasuna.

Impact Berenguer came back from his COVID-19 isolation and made his first start in almost two months, setting up Oihan Sancet's third goal of the night. The competition for minutes has gotten stronger thanks to the fine play of Nico Williams, but Berenguer still took his chance to prove he can be productive when on the pitch. There's also a possibility that he's picked up an arm injury during the match, so his availability could remain limited in the next match against Deportivo Alaves.

Playing against Osasuna Berenguer (illness) will be in the starting XI versus Osasuna on Monday.

Impact Berenguer will be making his first start since Nov. 19 against Levante, having come off the bench in his prior four contests. The midfielder has racked up 71 crosses (12 accurate) and 42 corners in his 18 matches this year and should be a factor on freekicks moving forward. As such, Berenguer figures to offer top-half fantasy value when he does feature.
