No longer banned Mascarell will be eligible going forward after serving a one-match La Liga suspension.

Impact Mascarell could appear either in midfield or central defense, having played both roles over the last few weeks before his suspension. He had just scored his second goal of the season during his last performance against Getafe. However, he holds much more value in terms of passes and defensive contributions. His return will push Manu Morlanes or David Lopez to the bench, depending on whether he's used in the middle or back line.

His next fixture will be against Elche, who sit 18th, making it a favorable opportunity to build on his attacking output while continuing his strong defensive form.

The midfielder opened his scoring and assisting counts in his 10th appearance of the 2025/26 season.
