Pere Milla - Ends ban Milla has served his ban and is an option for his club again.

Impact Milla is entering the call again after a one-game ban, serving that in their past outing. The midfielder has accumulated 21 starts in 26 appearances this season and should remain in a starting role, with six goals on 53 shots this campaign.

Urko Gonzalez de Zarate - Plays full game Gonzalez registered two shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Betis.

Impact Gonzalez started in midfield and recorded 24 passes. He also contributed defensively with a tackle and an interception. He has now played the full 90 minutes in all of his last six starts.

APRIL 5 • ROTOWIRE

Ramon Terrats - Comes off bench Terrats recorded no stats in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Betis.

Impact Terrats replaced Edu Exposito in the 84th minute and recorded just four touches. Terrats was benched after starting three games in a row. He has now recorded 22 appearances and just eight starts.

APRIL 5 • ROTOWIRE

Marko Dmitrovic - Earns clean sheet Dmitrovic recorded six saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Betis.

Impact Dmitrovic made critical saves and clearances throughout the game and kept Betis out skillfully. He has now recorded 20 saves and five clearances across the last four games. Next, he takes on table-toppers, Barcelona, who have netted nine in the last four games and are favourites to clinch the title.

Fernando Calero - Available vs. Real Betis Calero (quadriceps) is in the squad list for Saturday's game against Real Betis.

Impact Calero joined full training Thursday and Friday, and he's been rewarded with a spot in the squad for a tough trip to Real Betis. The defender should return to the starting XI right away in place of Clemens Riedel.

APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE

Antoniu Roca - Makes squad, available Saturday Roca (shoulder) is in the squad list for Saturday's game against Real Betis.

Impact Roca returned to full training earlier in the week, and since he came through the final session unscathed, he'll be part of the squad to travel to face Betis. Roca has logged just 108 minutes in league play this season, so while his return adds depth in the attacking third, he won't be much of a fantasy asset.

APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE

Fernando Calero - Should return Saturday Calero (quadriceps) rejoined full team training Thursday after three weeks away and is on track to be available for Saturday's clash against Real Betis, according to El 1900.

Impact Calero had been deliberately shut down by the club to ensure a full recovery rather than continuing to manage the discomfort on a game-by-game basis, and the international break gave him exactly the window he needed. His availability for Saturday will depend on how he responds in the final training session of the week before Espanyol travel to Sevilla, but the signs are encouraging. Once fully fit, Calero should regain his starting role in central defense, with Clemens Riedel having covered in his absence during a difficult stretch for the White and Blues.

Antoniu Roca - On track to return Saturday Roca (shoulder) is back in team training and is likely to be available for Saturday's clash against Real Betis, though his involvement will depend on how he comes through the final...

Impact Roca has been training with the team this week but coach Manolo Gonzalez acknowledged he is still not completely right, noting that he remains limited in contact situations. The 23-year-old homegrown winger has logged just 108 minutes in La Liga this season, so his return is unlikely to shake up the starting lineup, but having him available off the bench gives Gonzalez an extra option as Espanyol try to turn around a bad run of form heading into the final nine games of the season.

APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE

Ruben Sanchez - Credited with assist in loss Sanchez assisted once to go with three crosses (three accurate) and four chances created in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Getafe.

Impact Sanchez was active on the right flank and was the team's biggest creative threat, as evidenced by the four chances he created. This was his first assist of the season, and with just four starts across 14 league appearances, his fantasy appeal on paper looks minimal.

MARCH 25 • ROTOWIRE

Marko Dmitrovic - Beaten twice in loss Dmitrovic registered two saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Getafe.

Impact Dmitrovic was beaten twice in the first half, and both goals came from similar situations in which Espanyol defended poorly on set pieces. Dmitrovic has allowed multiple goals in all but one of his last 10 appearances, so he's far from being a reliable option in most fantasy formats.

MARCH 25 • ROTOWIRE

Antoniu Roca - Trending toward return Roca (shoulder) is showing positive signs of recovery and was spotted back training with the team during Espanyol's first session during the international break, according to El 19...

Impact Roca picked up a shoulder dislocation in training that has kept him sidelined and eaten into his already limited role this season, with the 23-year-old homegrown winger logging just 108 minutes in La Liga. His return is unlikely to shake up the starting lineup given how little he has featured, but it does give coach Manolo Gonzalez an extra body to work with during the two-week international break as the White and Blues try to sort out a stretch of just three points from their last nine matches. Roca should be ready to go for the first fixture back for the break, a trip to Real Betis on April. 4.

MARCH 25 • ROTOWIRE

Pere Milla - Set for suspension Milla will serve a one-match ban due to an accumulation of five yellow cards in the La Liga.

Impact Milla picked up his fifth yellow card in La Liga play and will serve a one-match suspension for the next clash against Real Betis after the international break. The attacking midfielder has been a undisputed starter for the Catalans this season, therefore his absence will be felt, with Edu Exposito likely getting a larger role for that game.

MARCH 23 • ROTOWIRE

Charles Pickel - No longer suspended Pickel has ended his suspension and is an option moving forward.

Impact Pickel is returning to the team for the next outing, as the defender is back from a one-game ban. He has only started in four of his 17 appearances this season as he remains a depth option, likely to stick to this role in coming games

Elche ends winless streak in 2026 with victory over Mallorca in La Liga

Elche has left the relegation zone in La Liga by defeating Mallorca 2-1 for its first victory of the year

MARCH 21 • Associated Press

Antoniu Roca - Ruled out again Roca (shoulder) is ruled out again for the time being, according to coach Manolo Gonzalez.

Impact Roca returned to the bench in the last matchup against Mallorca but is still dealing with his shoulder issue and has been ruled out again for now. The attacking midfielder does not have a clear timetable for his return, and his absence is not expected to impact the starting XI given he has made just one start across eight appearances this season.

Tyrhys Dolan - Assists against Mallorca Dolan assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-1 defeat against Mallorca. In addition, he was given a yel...

Impact Dolan played an excellent through ball into the box for Charles Pickel to finish. The right winger now has one goal and four assists in 27 matches this season, with fairly average production overall, totaling 29 shots and 23 chances created. He will next face Getafe, who have conceded just 30 goals in 28 matches, a low number in the league, making it a difficult matchup for attacking output.

Marko Dmitrovic - Conceded two in loss Dmitrovic made 10 saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 loss against Mallorca.

Impact Dmitrovic had a busy outing and actually performed well, recording double digit saves, but the Espanyol defense left too much for him to handle. In 28 matches this season, he has faced 136 shots while still managing seven clean sheets. However, he has now gone eight consecutive matches without one. His next fixture will be against Getafe, who sit just below Espanyol in the table in ninth, setting up a difficult and competitive matchup.

Charles Pickel - Receives red card Pickel was shown a red card in the 53rd minute of Sunday's match against Mallorca.

Impact Pickel had just returned from a suspension but will be heading to the sidelines for another, sent off Sunday following a VAR review. This will leave him out of a game, missing the March 21 match against Betis before returning after the break against Betis on April 5. This was his first start in some time, so it shouldn't change much, with Pol Lozano likely to return to a starting role due to Pickel's absence.

Fernando Calero - Ruled out until break Calero (undisclosed) won't be an option until after the March international break to allow him to recover fully from his issues, according to coach Manolo Gonzalez.

Impact Calero has been dealing with lingering muscle issues and hasn't been able to fully shake off the discomfort, so the staff and coach Manolo Gonzalez opted to shut him down until after the March international break to give him the time needed to recover properly and get back to 100 percent. In the meantime, Clemens Riedel is set to take over the starting role in central defense for the Catalans.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

Pere Milla - Doubtful against Mallorca Milla (undisclosed) wasn't spotted training Saturday and is a doubt for Sunday's clash against Mallorca, according to El 1900.

Impact Milla missed Saturday's team training session and is now a doubt for Sunday's clash against Mallorca. It remains unclear why the attacking midfielder was absent and whether he will make the squad for the match. That said, if he ends up missing the game, it would be a blow for the Catalans since he has been a regular starter this season, with Ramon Terrats the most likely option to step into the front line in his place.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

Antoniu Roca - Trains normally Saturday Roca (shoulder) was spotted training normally Saturday and should be an option for Sunday's clash against Mallorca, according to El 1900.

Impact Roca looks to have shaken off the shoulder injury that sidelined him for the last two matches. He was spotted going through full training on Saturday and should be back in the mix for Sunday's showdown with Mallorca. That's a welcome boost for the Catalans, even if he's expected to slot back into a bench role moving forward.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

Carlos Romero - Season high in shots Carlos Romero generated four shots (one on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and four chances created in Monday's 1-1 draw against Oviedo.

Impact Coming off a goal in his last outing, the left back continued to showcase his offensive qualities with a season high four shots and a season high four chances created, though he failed to register a goal contribution on the night. He remains on five goals and two assists in the league this season, a tally that keeps him ahead of all defenders in goals scored.
