Jaume Costa - Sends in nine crosses in loss Costa had one shot on goal, created two chances, sent in nine crosses (two accurate) and was shown a yellow card during Sunday's 1-0 loss against Espanyol.

Impact Costa once again showed his offensive acumen from the left flank, going up the field whenever given the chance to create a pair of chances and send a season-high nine crosses into opposition's box. With two assists, seven chances created and 24 crosses over his last four starts, the left back is always a great fantasy pickup. However, the was shown his fifth yellow card of the season and that means he'll be suspended for Apr. 2 visit to Getafe.

Iddrisu Baba - Strong performance in loss Baba had two shots (one on target), created two chances, made three tackles (all won) and drew three fouls during Sunday's 1-0 loss against Espanyol.

Impact Baba was one of Mallorca's few positives here, making his usual defensive contributions in the middle of the park and even generating some offense to make up for his largely inefficient attacking teammates. Having started the last three matches, Baba picked up where he left off before joining his national team for AFCON and will try to keep up with the strong play for the final stretch of the season. Up next for him is Apr. 2 visit to Getafe.

Pablo Maffeo - Suspended against Espanyol Maffeo will miss Sunday's clash against Espanyol with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.

Impact Maffeo picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in Monday's defeat against Real Madrid, meaning he will be suspended for Sunday's game. He has started all but two of Mallorca's 28 La Liga matches this season, but Giovanni Gonzalez could replace him at right back for this one.

MARCH 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sergio Rico - Concedes three in loss Rico conceded three goals and made two saves during Monday's 3-0 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Rico has conceded nine goals in his last three matches, all of which have been losses. Overall, he's now winless in his last five starts after winning his first two since arriving at the club in February. This may not be a great omen for the coming match against Espanyol, which have scored 34 goals in 28 matches this season.

MARCH 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Pablo Maffeo - Busy in loss Maffeo created two chances from seven crosses (five accurate), won six-of-ten tackles and conceded a yellow card during Monday's 3-0 win over Real Madrid.

Impact Maffeo nearly took out Vinicius Junior for his booking but was otherwise stellar in his side's home loss. With 14 tackles made over the last two matches, he'll take good form into a trip to Espanyol, which have conceded the second-most crosses to defenders in La Liga.

MARCH 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Take - Creates one chance in loss Kubo created one chance and put one shot off target during Monday's 3-0 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Kubo had more to deal with in flying elbows from Rodrygo than in offensive work against a parent club that's sent him out on loan in each of the last three seasons. That being said, he's still started in nine straight matches and could play an important role in the next match at Espanyol, which have conceded 41 goals in 28 matches this season.

MARCH 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Vedat Muriqi - Takes five shots in loss Muriqi took five shots (zero on goal) and created one chance during Monday's 3-0 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Muriqi hasn't scored in four straight starts but has kept himself busy with 14 shots taken in that time. As just two have been steered on target, Muriqi will hope for better luck against Espanyol, which are tied for the fourth-most goals conceded to forwards in La Liga.

MARCH 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Angel Rodriguez - Shotless in loss Rodriguez failed to take a shot in 68 minutes of Monday's 3-0 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Rodriguez has scored just once in his last seven starts following Monday's defeat. With Vedat Muriqi at least providing more activity in the attack, Rodriguez may continue to struggle in finding consistent minutes or chances. Up next is a trip to Espanyol, which are tied for the fourth-most goals conceded to forwards in the league.

Sergio Rico - Four saves in loss Rico made four saves during Sunday's 4-3 loss to Celta Vigo.

Impact Rico came off on the wrong side of an all-action, seven-goal, thriller, despite making more saves than his counterpart. The team in front of him just couldn't shut down a dominant Celta Vigo attack and struggled to get anything going. Rico will be hard-pressed to bounce back against Real Madrid next time out.

MARCH 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Jaume Costa - Third assist in loss Costa provided one assist on two chances created, sending in five crosses (two accurate) during Sunday's 4-3 loss to Celta Vigo.

Impact Costa provided a single assist during Sunday's loss, as he earned his third assist of the season, and his second in the last three matches. The defender isn't a top option, but he does have a safe floor and likes to get forward, with four crosses in each of his last three starts. Next up for Costa is a Monday clash with Real Madrid.

MARCH 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Salva Sevilla - Scores off bench Sevilla scored once on one shot off the bench during Sunday's 4-3 loss to Celta Vigo.

Impact Sevilla came off the bench for a 23 minute cameo, and instantly made an impact, scoring once. The midfielder has been a frequent fixture in the starting XI and tends to have a stable floor built off of crosses. Sevilla will likely return to the starting XI for Monday's clash with Real Madrid.

MARCH 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Giovanni Alessandro Gonzalez Apud - Scores in first start Gonzalez scored once on two shots (one on goal) during Sunday's 4-3 loss to Celta Vigo.

Impact Gonzalez scored once in his first start for his new club. The right-back doesn't figure to be much of a goal threat going forward, but it's always nice to open the goal-scoring account early. Gonzalez will be tested Monday, against Real Madrid.

MARCH 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Manolo Reina - Sent off against Celta Reina received a straight red card in the 95th minute of Sunday's defeat against Celta Vigo.

Impact Reina did not play on Sunday and hasn't featured in La Liga since Jan. 2, but he was sent off from the bench against Celta. He will be suspended for next week's clash against Real Madrid.

MARCH 2, 2022 • Associated Press

Dani Rodriguez - Creates two chances in loss Rodriguez took a shot and created two chances in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat against Real Sociedad. He also made an interception and won one of two tackles in the match.

Impact Rodriguez was solid on both sides of the ball Wednesday but he and Mallorca never seriously troubled Sociedad on the day. They're still five points above the relegation zone, but they won't want to continue getting closer with 12 games left in the season.

MARCH 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Take - Takes four shots against Sociedad Kubo took four shots and created a chance in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat against Real Sociedad.

Impact Kubo was a threat on Wednesday but he couldn't put any of his shots on target, a common theme for the 20-year-old as only five of his 34 shots this season (14.7 percent) have even been on goal. Still, he has consistently been getting into dangerous positions, and will be looking to do so again versus Celta Vigo on Sunday.

MARCH 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Pablo Maffeo - Creates three chances in loss Maffeo made two interceptions and created three chances in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat against Real Sociedad.

Impact Maffeo played well on Wednesday and was a considerable threat going forward from right back, but he wasn't able to find a breakthrough against Sociedad. Still, he will want to have a similar performance Sunday against 10th-placed Celta Vigo, which have scored 29 goals in 26 La Liga matches this season.

MARCH 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sergio Rico - Concedes two goals against Sociedad Rico made a save but conceded two goals in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat against Real Sociedad.

Impact Rico was beaten by strikes from David Silva and Mikel Merino on Wednesday, as his search for a first clean sheet of the season goes on. Mallorca is still five points above the relegation zone at the moment, but he won't want to extend his La Liga losing streak to three in a row Sunday against Celta Vigo, which have scored 29 goals in 26 matches.

MARCH 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Angel Rodriguez - One shot against Valencia Rodriguez had one shot in a 1-0 defeat to Valencia on Saturday.

Impact Rodriguez had an average outing for the home team. The 34-year-old had a solitary shot that was not on target. Other than that, Rodriguez also provided a solitary key pass.
