Fabian Orellana - Out for season finale Orellana (quad) will miss Saturday's season finale against Atletico Madrid.

Impact Orellana is a big absence for his club heading into a game where they could avoid relegation and upset the visitors from winning the league title. Instead, his season will end with six goals and two assists in 30 appearances (27 starts).

Lucas Olaza - Creates four chances in loss Olaza registered four chances created, nine crosses (two accurate), two tackles (zero won) and a yellow card in Sunday's 4-1 loss at Real Sociedad.

Impact Olaza led his side in chances created and sent in the second-most crosses, but it wasn't enough to earn at least one point on the road. He also picked up his eighth yellow card of the season, something to keep in mind when they host Atletico Madrid on Sunday.

Pablo Hervias - Assists at Real Sociedad Hervias assisted one goal from three chances created, took two shots (one on target), sent in 10 crosses (two accurate), made one interception and one clearance in Sunday's 4-1 los...

Impact Hervias assisted Marcos Andre goal in the 82nd minute to cut Sociedad's lead to 4-1, his fifth assist in the season. The midfielder also led his side sending in his second-most crosses in the season. He will now face a tougher matchup against Atletico Madrid on Sunday.

Jordi Masip - Makes five saves in rout Masip made five saves during Sunday's 4-1 loss at Real Sociedad.

Impact Masip matched his third-best mark in saves in the season, but it wasn't enough to avoid the road loss -- as he conceded four goals before halftime. The goalkeeper has yet to keep a clean sheet since Jan 2 in his last 13 starts, and will look to bounce back against Atletico Madrid on Sunday.

MAY 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Roberto - Out for season finale Roberto was sent off from the bench in Sunday's 4-1 loss to Real Sociedad and will miss the season finale against Atletico Madrid.

Impact Roberto was in line to start as he's recently been alternating games with Masip, but he'll be unavailable due to sanctions from the Spanish FA. With the visitors in Atleti fighting for the title and showing improved attacking form, it may not be the best matchup for either goalie, though only Masip is able to start now.

Ruben Alcaraz - Concedes 10th booking Alcaraz will be suspended for Sunday's season finale against Atletico Madrid after picking up his 10th yellow card of the season.

Impact Alcaraz finishes the season with 25 starts in 30 league appearances and two different suspensions for yellow card accumulation. With Valladolid close to relegation, Alcaraz will hope he's done enough to earn a new contract with a different club in the first division, as he's still a solid option for a defensive-midfielder. Michel could take his place in Sunday's game as the visiting club looks to claim the league title.

Late Suárez goal moves Atlético 1 win from league title

Luis Suárez has scored an 88th-minute winner as Atlético Madrid rallied to beat Osasuna 2-1 and move one win away from claiming its first Spanish league title since 2014

MAY 16, 2021 • Associated Press

Sergi Guardiola - Out Sunday Sergi will miss Sunday's match at Real Sociedad after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season.

Impact Sergi hasn't scored a goal since September of 2020 and it's unlikely he would've started now that both Jota and Shonn Weissman are healthy. He'll next be eligible for the season finale against Atletico Madrid.

MAY 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jawad El Yamiq - Picks up suspension El Yamiq will miss Sunday's trip to Real Valladolid after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season.

Impact El Yamiq will be an important absence as his club are trying desperately to avoid relegation. In his place, Bruno Gonzalez will become more important to the defense and Miguel Angel Rubio could make a rare start if a three center-back formation is utilized.

Bruno Gonzalez - Leader in blocks, clearances Gonzalez blocked a shot, made three tackles (winning two) and seven clearances during Thursday's 2-0 loss to Villarreal.

Impact Gonzalez was a part of the Valladolid back line that allowed two second half goals on Thursday. The defender finished with the second highest amount of tackles on the team, while leading Valladolid in blocks and clearances in the loss.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Nacho Martinez - Crosses three times Nacho crossed three times inaccurately, made three interceptions and won a tackle during Thursday's 2-0 loss to Villarreal.

Impact Nacho was a part of the Valladolid back line that conceded two second half goals on Thursday. The fullback finished with the third highest amount of crosses on the team, while his three interceptions were the second highest total in the loss.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Roberto - Beaten twice Thursday Roberto allowed two goals while making a save during Thursday's 2-0 loss to Villarreal.

Impact Roberto allowed two second half goals as Valladolid dropped all three points on Thursday. The keeper has now allowed 17 goals in 13 league starts, while his lone save upped his season total to 29.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Luis Perez - Back on bench Perez (muscular) is on the bench for Thursday's match against Villarreal.

Impact Perez suffered an injury in the May 2 contest and missed the match over the weekend, but it looks like he's healthy again. While he may not make an appearance off the bench Thursday, he should be an option to start Sunday at Sociedad, returning to his role at right-back.
