Impact Moreno has suffered a relapse of the calf injury that has caused issues for him previously in the season.

Takes two shots in loss Moreno took two shots (zero on goal) and created one chance during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Elche.

Impact Moreno has gone scoreless in each of the last two matches but this was the first time in eight league and UCL appearances that he also failed to put a shot on target. He'll next face Mallorca, which have conceded the fourth-most goals to forwards.

Records assist in win Moreno took three shots (one on target) and assisted a goal in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Atletico Madrid. He created four chances overall in the match.

Impact Moreno set up an Alberto Moreno strike, but he was a constant threat throughout Sunday's game against Atletico. He's averaging four shots (2.2 on target) and 2.8 chances created per game in his five La Liga starts since returning from a hamstring injury in December, and he has seven goals and two assists in that span. He will carry that form into next weekend's clash against 18th-placed Elche, which have conceded 27 times in 19 matches this season.

Scores two goals in third straight Moreno scored two goals from four shots (two on goal) and created two chances in 80 minutes of Monday's 5-0 win over Levante.

Impact Moreno took until the winter to look like the striker had earned a place in the national side over the summer as he's now scored seven in his last four starts and six of those over the last three games. With the Yellow Submarines undefeated in that time, Moreno has reclaimed a place as one of the top strikers in the competition and will likely be treated as such until his form escapes him, though that could take a while if the team attack remains sharp as well (18 total goals in last five matches). Up next is a visit from Atletico Madrid, which have conceded 22 goals in 19 games.
