Carlos Dominguez - Out Saturday Dominguez (ankle) won't be an option for Saturday's game against Alaves, manager Claudio Giraldez told media during Friday's pre-match press conference. "Dominguez has yet to join...

Impact Dominguez has been unable to return to action due to an ankle problem that has kept him sidelined since the beginning of the month. Since he's yet to return to group training, he might be a few weeks away from being ready. The defender has made only five starts this season, so his fantasy upside isn't high even in games where he's available.

Hugo Alvarez - Yet to join group training Alvarez (ankle) won't be an option for Saturday's game against Alaves, manager Claudio Giraldez told media during Friday's pre-match press conference. "Alvarez has yet to join grou...

Impact The manager didn't offer a concrete timeline for Alvarez's return to action, but the fact that he's yet to join group training suggests he might be set for a few more games on the sidelines. He's barely seen action this season, however, so his absence won't affect many fantasy decisions.

Williot Swedberg - Won't play vs. Alaves Swedberg (ankle) won't be an option for Saturday's game against Alaves, manager Claudio Giraldez told media during Friday's pre-match press conference. "Swedberg is training with t...

Impact Giraldez revealed that the Swede suffered a setback in his recovery in recent days, and while he's trending in the right direction, this game against Alaves will come too soon for him. He seems to be inching closer to a return, though, and Celta have upcoming matches against Ludogorets and Espanyol before the end of the month.

Iago Aspas - Minimal impact so far Aspas has one goal and one assist in 10 Liga appearances (four starts) this season.

Impact Aspas is an absolute legend for Celta Vigo, but he seems to be losing his grip on the starting role and his status as a key player at Balaidos. Aspas has been thriving in the Europa League with two goals and one assist across four starts, but his lack of end product in LaLiga minimizes his upside. Ferran Jutgla and Bryan Zaragoza are expected to see minutes ahead of him going forward.

Ionut Radu - Concedes four in loss Radu registered five saves and allowed four goals in Sunday's 4-2 loss against Barcelona.

Impact Radu's struggles continued as he conceded his highest goal total in a league match this season and stayed without a clean sheet. He has given up 18 goals with 42 saves through 12 appearances and will aim for his first when he faces Deportivo Alaves on Nov. 22.

NOVEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Borja Iglesias - Goal and assist in loss Iglesias scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and one chance created in Sunday's 4-2 defeat to Barcelona.

Impact Iglesias started his seventh consecutive league game after making just one start in the first five. The forward scored and assisted in the same match for the first time this season, bringing his total to five goals and two assists in 12 appearances from 21 shots and nine chances created.

Sergio Carreira Vilarino - First league goal Sergio Carreira scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 4-2 defeat to Barcelona.

Impact The defender has featured in advanced role as both in the right and left midfield, starting nine league matches with five shots and three chances created. On the defensive side, he has recorded 11 tackles, 10 interceptions and 16 clearances.

NOVEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Ferran Jutgla - First league assist Jutgla assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 4-2 defeat versus Barcelona.

Impact Jutgla made his fifth straight league start and his eighth in 12 appearances, recording his first assist. Across those starts, he has taken 16 shots and created eight chances, contributing two goals and one assist overall.

Oscar Mingueza - Forced off due to illness Mingueza was forced off at halftime of Sunday's 4-2 defeat against Barcelona due to illness, coach Claudio Giraldez said in a press conference, according to Cadenaser. "He wasn't f...

Impact Mingueza has been dealing with stomach problems prior to Sunday's clash against Barcelona and asked to be substituted in the 40th minute before ultimately coming off at the break. The defender will have some time to recover during the international break and is expected to be back available for the clash against Alaves on Nov. 22. That said, he has started only two of his last five available games, so a potential absence wouldn't impact much the starting lineup of the Celeste.

Impact Dominguez is dealing with an ankle injury suffered in recent days and is ruled out for the time being. The defender will hope to recover in time during the break to be back available against Alaves on Nov. 22, although he should keep a bench role for the Celeste moving forward.

Hugo Alvarez - Diagnosed with ankle sprain Alvarez will be sidelined for the time being due to an ankle sprain, the club announced Friday.

Impact Alvarez has made just three starts this season between LaLiga and the UEFA Europa League, so his absence won't represent much of an issue in most fantasy formats.

Impact Alvarez was a late withdrawal from the traveling squad to face Dinamo Zagreb after twisting his ankle during training. His availability for the next match will depend on how the ankle responds to treatment in the coming days.

Impact Radu will miss Thursday's clash against Zagreb due to a sprained thumb but will be a late call for Sunday's clash against Barcelona. The starting goalkeeper will be assessed in the coming days to determine if he can start on Sunday, but if he has to miss the game, Ivan Villar will likely replace him between the posts against the Blaugranas.
