Raul Asencio - Subbed due to minor scare Asencio (neck) was substituted in the 77th minute due to a blow to the face that was revealed to be only a minor scare, both the player and coach Alvaro Arbeloa commented, accordin...

Impact Asencio went down hard after a collision with Eduardo Camavinga and appeared to injure his neck in the process. That said, he reassured everyone on Instagram that he's doing fine and that the substitution was more precaution than panic. He should be available for Monday's derby against Getafe, though the club could still lean toward caution and give him a breather, which would open the door for David Alaba or Alvaro Carreras to slot into central defense with Dean Huijsen (thigh) and Eder Militao (hamstring) still out.

Kylian Mbappe - Could miss time Mbappe (knee) could miss time due to his recurrent issues, coach Alvaro Arbeloa said in a press conference, according to RMC Sport. "We discussed it with him and the doctors, and w...

Impact Mbappe is expected to miss time as he finally addresses the knee issue he has been managing for months. The superstar has consistently pushed through to stay available for the Merengues, but this time the injury calls for a legitimate two to three week shutdown, and with the 2026 World Cup on the horizon this summer, he is unlikely to risk a bigger setback by rushing back. If he ends up sidelined for multiple matches, Gonzalo Garcia and Rodrygo are in line to see an uptick in minutes and a larger share of the attacking workload.

Rodrygo - Suspension served Rodrygo is available after recovering from a hamstring injury and clearing a two-game ban in the Champions League playoffs against Benfica.

Impact Rodrygo will hope to return to action, but he might be used as a substitute in the short term unless Kylian Mbappe (knee) remains sidelined and either Vinicius Junior or Gonzalo Garcia is rested. Rodrygo had a productive stretch between December and early January when he scored two goals and three assists over four games, but he has otherwise made a limited impact this season.
