Available for Saudi Arabia game Rodriguez (illness) is on the bench for Tuesday's opener against Saudi Arabia.

Dealing with minor illness Rodriguez has picked up a minor illness and missed Monday's training session, Gaston Edul of TyC Sports reported ahead of Tuesday's opener against Argentina.

Impact Rodriguez is a potential starter when healthy but this illness could harm his chances of that happening in the first game of the tournament for his national team. Instead, Rodrigo De Paul and Leandro Paredes are likely to start in central-midfield if Rodriguez isn't given a chance to play from kickoff.

Busy defensively Rodriguez had one cross (zero accurate) and zero chances created in Thursday's 3-0 defeat versus Valencia.

Impact Rodriguez was kept behind the ball throughout Thursday's loss, making four tackles and putting his body on the line for multiple blocks. The defensive midfielder has just a single goal through his 17 appearances in all competitions and has offered next to nothing going forward. Rodriguez's fantasy value lies in his floor that is built off of defensive volume.

Available for selection Rodriguez (undisclosed) is available for selection in Thursday's trip to Valencia.

Impact Rodriguez had missed two games with a hip issue before playing the full 90 in Sunday's draw with Sevilla. As he came away somewhat battered after a physical game, there could be some worries about Rodriguez not starting but at least he's available. No matter how Thursday's match goes, Rodriguez figures to contribute for Argentina at the World Cup so long as he stays fit.

Limited in training Rodriguez was limited during Tuesday's training session ahead of Thursday's trip to Valencia, according to Diario de Sevilla.

Impact Rodriguez played the full 90 during Sunday's 1-1derby draw with Sevilla but if he's limited in training he may be rotated by Thursday to protect him for the World Cup. Were this to happen, Paul Akouokou or Andres Guardado could start as a holding-midfielder alongside William Carvalho.

Impact Rodriguez has missed a couple of games since suffering a hip injury Oct. 27 against Ludogorets and now looks to be sharp for Sunday's Gran Derbi against city rivals Sevilla. When everyone is fit, expect Rodriguez to start alongside William Carvalho at the base of the midfield. It's also a positive development with the World Cup on the horizon since Rodriguez figures to play an important role following his exceptional efforts en route to a Copa America triumph in the summer of 2021.

Unavailable against HJK Rodriguez (hip) is skipping Thursday's UEL match against HJK Helsinki as he didn't make the squad list.

Impact This is an expected move to Rodriguez, who took a blow to his hip in last week's UEL match against Ludogorets and couldn't play Sunday against Real Sociedad either. He'll still hope to return in Sunday's derby against Sevilla and his status for the World Cup should be secure as long as he's back in training by next week.

NOVEMBER 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't train Tuesday Rodriguez (hip) missed Tuesday's training session ahead of Thursday's UEL match against HJK Helsinki, according to Jose Maria Lopez of AS.

Impact Rodriguez may just skip Thursday's match altogether as his team has already qualified for the knockout rounds with a game to spare. With youngsters available to fill out the lineup for the midweek matchup, Rodriguez can focus on recovering his fitness for the final league matches and the World Cup.

NOVEMBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out against Sociedad Rodriguez (hip) is not in Betis' match day squad for Sunday's clash against Real Sociedad.

Impact Rodriguez is not fit enough to be involved in Sunday's match after suffering a hip injury during the mid-week Europa League win over Ludogorets. Andres Guardado and Paul Akouokou are getting the starts in defensive midfield in his absence.

Suffers hip issue in Europa League Rodriguez departed after 74 minutes of Thursday's 1-0 win over Ludogorets due to a hip issue, according to Diario de Sevilla.

Impact Rodriguez appears to be ready for Sunday's match against Real Sociedad, if his postgame Instagram message is to be believed. If he can't play in the end, Andres Guardado and Paul Akouokou are options to start alongside William Carvalho in defensive-midfield.

OCTOBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Rodriguez tallied one goal, two assists and nine clean sheets in 32 La Liga appearances (29 starts) from defensive midfield this campaign, and the 28-year-old will likely continue as Betis' first choice in the position next season.

MAY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Locks down defense against Mallorca Rodriguez had one block, six tackles, two fouls and was fouled once in the 2-1 victory over Mallorca on Sunday.

Impact Thanks to the strong defensive effort from Rodriguez, Mallorca was only able to get off one shot that was on target in this match. The defender always plays aggressively, and has been seeing a surge in tackles recently. This will come in handy in the next match against Sevilla.

FEBRUARY 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Adds goal in win Rodriguez scored one goal from two shots (one on goal) during Friday's 4-1 win over Espanyol.

Impact Even Rodriguez has found the net as his side have scored eight times in their last two league matches. As he's normally more of a tempo-setter and defensive player, he's more reliable in making tackles (eighth in league) than scoring goals (one in 18 matches). Up next is a visit from Villarreal, which have conceded 23 goals in 21 matches this season.

JANUARY 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Suspended against Celta Rodriguez will miss the clash against Celta Vigo on Jan. 2 with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.

Impact Rodriguez picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in Sunday's defeat against Athletic, meaning he will be suspended for the Vigo match. William Carvalho, Paul Akouokou and Andres Guardado (illness) will all be options to replace him in defensive midfield for the game.

DECEMBER 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Sent off in loss Rodriguez was sent off in the first half of Sunday's 2-0 loss to Sevilla after conceding two yellow cards.

Impact Rodriguez didn't last past halftime in the local derby and his reward is a ban for at least the next match at Elche. As a defensive midfielder, his value isn't the highest, even with tackling numbers that put him squarely among the top-10 in the league. While he's out, William Carvalho is likely to make another start.

NOVEMBER 8, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Logs two assists in win Rodriguez provided two assists from four chances created during Monday's 2-1 win over Granada.

Impact Rodriguez was a key piece in helping his club secure their first win of the season following two draws and a loss. With solid offensive production and eight tackles made through two games, Rodriguez is on an early track to be a valuable defensive midfielder if he keeps this up. Up next is a visit from Espanyol, which have scored just one goal in four games so far.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

In squad list Rodriguez made the squad list for Saturday's trip to Mallorca.

Impact Rodriguez passed through his quarantine after winning the Copa America with Argentina and returning to Spain, so now all that's left for him to do is start game one and get his club season underway. With 34 starts last season, it shouldn't be surprising to see him take up a role in the midfield as soon as possible.

AUGUST 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Enters quarantine Rodriguez entered a 10-day quarantine after returning to Spain from Argentina following the Copa America, according to Alvaro Borrego of El Desmarque.

Impact Rodriguez returns from his vacations after winning the Copa America and won't have long to train before the season begins. It still seems likely he'll play a big role in the coming season after making 34 starts in the 2020/21 campaign, even if he's not able to play immediately as he builds up his fitness.

Up next for the midfielder is Sunday's season-closing visit to Celta Vigo and he'll need to show all his defensive acumen in a pivotal match in terms of European qualification.
