Iffy for Cagliari game Ekkelenkamp "is dealing with a thigh problem, and we don't know yet whether he'll be available against Cagliari," coach Kosta Runjaic informed.

Impact Ekkelenkamp has avoided serious injuries as he hasn't been ruled out in advance and will be a late call for this one, as the team will take it to the wire to evaluate him. Oier Zarraga or Simone Pafundi would eventually substitute for him since Martin Payero (suspension) is missing in the midfield.
