Impact Kounde lost his temper Tuesday and he will now be suspended for the clash against Cadiz on Jan. 3 and possibly for longer if the league deems it fit. Sevilla will hope that either Jesus Navas (thigh) or Gonzalo Montiel (undisclosed) will be fit enough to return at right back by then, meanwhile Karim Rekik would likely slot back into central defense for the game.

Records assist in win Kounde assisted a goal and won one of two tackles in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Atletico Madrid. He also made four clearances and two interceptions in the match.

Impact Kounde was forced out to right back after half an hour Saturday following an injury to Gonzalo Montiel, but he set up Lucas Ocampos' winning goal against Atletico in the 88th minute. On Tuesday he will face Barcelona, but it is unclear at which position Kounde will play amidst all of his side's injuries along the back line.

Makes seven clearances in win Kounde kept a clean sheet with seven clearances made in addition to winning two-of-three tackles and conceding a yellow card during Saturday's 1-0 win over Athletic Club.

Impact Kounde is a key cog for a team defense that's kept five clean sheets in the last nine games. That record came close to getting ended as Saturday's opponents hit the post twice, but he still came away with the positive result. He'll now have to test his mettle against Atletico Madrid, which have scored the third-most goals in La Liga.

Wins one tackle in loss Kounde won one tackle and made five clearances during Sunday's 2-1 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Kounde had kept clean sheets in three of his last five starts before this game and recorded nine tackles in that time. As his tackling numbers aren't as high, it's important that Kounde continues to use his talents to rack up clean sheets and full 90s, of which he has six in 12 completed contests this season. Up next is a visit from Villarreal, which have scored 16 goals in 14 games this season.

Keeps clean sheet in win Kounde kept a clean sheet with five interceptions made during Monday's 1-0 win over Getafe.

Impact Kounde did well against a team that doesn't score much but had a better attacking show than was often present last season. As long as he's with Diego Carlos at the heart of the defense, Kounde shouldn't have any issues racking up clean sheets with regularity all season, whether it's Bono or Marko Dmitrovic starting behind him in goal.

Impact Kounde slotted straight into the lineup in his usual spot an kept yet another clean sheet.

As a result, all he can focus on his contributing to one of the best defensive sides in Spain and all of Europe.

Dealing with outside interest Kounde's status for Sunday's season opener against Rayo Vallecano is in question due to transfer interest from Chelsea, according to Eduaro Florido of Diario de Sevilla.

Impact Kounde could easily be seen in the first match of the La Liga season, but it's hard to tell how things are going as Sevilla haven't played many matches during the preseason. What could be more likely is the absence of Diego Carlos, who pushed his competitive matches late into the summer as Brazil won Olympic Gold in Tokyo.
