Thiago Almada - Sends eight crosses in draw Almada recorded eight crosses (two accurate) and five corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Elche.

Impact Almada hasn't needed an adjustment period to make an impact in LaLiga, but the Argentina international has yet to translate his solid play into fantasy value. As a regular starter and a consistent playmaker, though, Almada should have a relatively high floor in most matches while being expected to rack up either goals or assists sooner rather than later.

Jan Oblak - Beaten once by Elche Oblak made one save and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Elche.

Impact Oblak didn't have a lot of work against a defensive-minded Elche side, but in the lone clear situation he faced a striker, Rafa Mir beat him. This hasn't been a good start to the season for Oblak, who has been one of the most consistent goalkeepers in LaLiga in recent seasons. He'll aim to bounce back against Alaves on Saturday just before the international break.

Hancko has started both matches for Atletico Madrid in the start of the 2025/26 Liga season, tallying six clearances, two tackles and two chances created outside of this assist.
