David Carmo - Returns in draw against Alaves Carmo made six clearances, three tackles (one won) and one interception as a substitute in Sunday's 1-1 draw with Alaves.

Impact Carmo is back with his club following Angola's elimination from the AFCON, and he could be an option to start over Eric Bailly in upcoming games. Before leaving for international duty, Carmo was averaging a team-high 7.4 clearances per contest and had been involved in two clean sheets over the 2025/26 season.

Victor Parada - Ban over Parada has severe this ban and is an option for the club moving forward.

Impact Parada is done with his one-game ban and is an option for the club after sitting out due to yellow card accumulation. The defender will return to his starting spot at left-back, more than likely, starting in the four games ahead of his ban and recording one assist in 14 appearances (nine starts) this season.

Federico Vinas - Scores, receives red card in draw Vinas scored a goal but earned a red card during the second half of Sunday's 1-1 draw with Alaves.

Impact Vinas finally scored his second goal of the season with a left-footed strike in the 56th minute Sunday, ending a six-game scoring drought. However, he was later sent off after receiving a pair of yellow cards. This is his third ban of the season, and he'll now miss the week 19 clash against Betis before returning to face Osasuna on Jan. 17. Oviedo have few No. 9 options following the Salomon Rondon's departure, but they could deploy Haissem Hassan or use the inexperienced Alex Fores in that spot while Vinas serves his suspension.

Carlos Benavidez - Sent off Sunday Benavidez was shown a red card during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Oviedo.

Impact Benavidez will miss one game due to a second yellow card in the last match, becoming ineligible to face Villarreal on Saturday. After that, he could return in a difficult trip to Atletico Madrid. The midfielder has recorded only 74 minutes of play across five league appearances this season, so his absence is a minor blow to the team, with Antonio Blanco and Pablo Ibanez expected to retain the starting spots.

Lucas Boye - Named to bench Boye (strain) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Oviedo.

Impact Boye is with the team despite some uncertainty for the contest, as he was battling a strain but has passed fitness checks. The forward has been their typical starter and will likely return to the spot after testing his legs, with the club taking a more cautious approach. He has three goals in 12 appearances this season.
