Igor Zubeldia - Returning from suspension Zubeldia will be eligible to feature in Sunday's clash against Atletico Madrid after serving a one-game suspension.
Illarramendi - Suspension served Illarramendi will be in contention versus Atletico Madrid on Sunday following his one-match suspension.
Impact Illarramendi had started in just two of the club's last nine contests prior to being banned for accumulation. As such, the midfielder is far from a lock for the starting XI and may have to settle for a spot on the bench. Even when he does feature, Illarramendi doesn't offer much in the way of offensive upside considering he has just one shot on target in his last seven outings.
