Impact Exposito would see a decent match despite the loss as the match ended, with the midfielder earning a team-high of seven crosses in the contest. This is a fourth straight match with five or more crosses for the midfielder, recording over double-digit crosses in a contest five times this campaign. This has led to five assists this season, although he has yet to earn a goal.

Decent day attacking Milla recorded three shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-0 defeat versus Barcelona.

Impact Milla would not make it a second straight game with a goal Saturday, instead only seeing one of his three shots hit the target. He remains a regular starter with 15 stats in 16 appearances this season, already with six goal contributions compared to the three he earned last season, although he has seen nearly 600 more minutes of play.

Bench option versus Barcelona Puado (knee) is among the substitutes for Saturday's clash with Barcelona.

Impact Puado may finally see action after being sidelined for three months. This is exciting news for an Espanyol side that could use him either on the wings or as a center-forward, thus threatening Tyrhys Dolan and Roberto Fernandez in terms of playing time. Puado has scored twice in eight games played this season.

In starting XI Saturday Milla (lower leg) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's derby against Barcelona.

Impact Milla has been one of his team's best offensive threats this season, so his presence boosts their chances of testing a difficult opponent. The winger scored six goals over his previous 15 games while averaging 2.7 shots (1.0 on target) and 1.4 chances created per match over that span. He'll likely continue to be chosen over Antoniu Roca going forward.

Impact Having Puado back in the squad is a huge boost for Espanyol, as the winger is the team's best player by a wide margin. It's uncertain if Puado will be part of the starting lineup right away since he hasn't played since early October, but he should get minutes one way or another if he's included in the squad. Puado has two goals in eight starts this season.

Could return for derby Puado (knee) has resumed team training and could return for the derby against Barcelona on Jan. 3, according to AS.

Impact Puado has missed every game since early October due to a knee injury but is now nearing a return to competition, as he has resumed team training and could be back in the match squad for the derby against Barcelona on Jan. 3. That would be excellent news for the Catalans, since he is an undisputed starter when fit and available and will likely reclaim that role to boost the frontline once back. That said, after nearly three months without playing, the attacking midfielder will likely be eased back into the mix.

Impact Cabrera turned in a strong defensive performance in Monday's win over Athletic, recording one interception, two blocks and, for the second straight match, 10 clearances to keep danger at bay.

Suffers shin injury Milla scored once before being forced off due to a shin injury in Monday's 2-1 victory over Athletic Club, according to AS.

Impact Milla scored his sixth goal of the season in 15 appearances in La Liga against Athletic Club on Monday, serving as his team's top scorer in the absence of Javi Puado (knee). However, the attacking midfielder was forced off before the hour mark after a heavy collision with Unai Simon that appears to have injured his shin. Milla will be assessed in the coming days and will hope to recover in time for the derby against Barcelona on Jan. 3. That said, if he were to miss some time while recovering, Jofre Carreras would be a likely option to start in his place.

Provides one assist in victory Dolan assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 2-1 win versus Athletic.

Impact Dolan, back in the starting XI after missing a match through suspension, played a key role in Monday's win over Athletic by providing an assist to Pere Milla early in the second half while also contributing defensively with four tackles.

The left-back is enjoying a strong campaign overall, totaling three goals and two assists in 16 La Liga appearances this season, while also adding 44 tackles and 20 interceptions during that span.

Six saves in win Dmitrovic had six saves and allowed one goal in Monday's 2-1 win versus Athletic.

Impact Dmitrovic turned in a strong performance with six saves in Monday's win over Athletic, even though his three-match clean-sheet streak came to an end. The Serbian goalkeeper remains in excellent form, allowing just one goal while making 13 saves over his last four La Liga appearances. He will look to keep that momentum going in a tough post-break matchup against Barcelona in the derby.
