Wojciech Szczesny - Likely to start vs. Sevilla Szczesny is expected to start between the posts Saturday against Sevilla due to the absence of Joan Garcia (knee), according to Sergi Capvedila of SPORT.

Impact Although signing Dominik Livakovic could've shifted the hierarchy behind Garcia between the posts, Szczesny still seems the clear No. 2 ahead of Livakovic. The Polish goalkeeper committed a mistake when replacing Garcia in the 7-2 win over Racing Santander, but that won't change Hansi Flick's plans to keep him as the starter this upcoming weekend -- and whenever Garcia isn't available.

Impact Garcia was forced off at halftime Wednesday after slipping while attempting to retrieve the ball behind his own goal line, but the club's update indicates the issue is limited to mild discomfort in his right knee. No specific recovery timeline has been provided, leaving his availability dependent on how the knee responds over the coming days.
