Impact Almeida has been out of action since October with a back injury and has finally been given a timeline of about a week to return.

Once cleared to play, Almeida should be in contention for a spot in the starting XI after featuring in six of his eight matches to open the season.

Impact Almedia is missing another match after going down with an apparent injury before the international break. There has still been no further confirmation on what this issue is with the midfielder, as he was missing from the squad last match with no probable cause.

Missing from squad list Almeida was not included in the squad list to face Mallorca on Saturday.

Impact Almeida's absence went unexplained during the team's press conference, though he did leave Saturday's matchup with Betis in the 68th minute. With the attacking midfielder on the shelf, Selim Amallah could be in line for a spot in the starting XI having served his one-match ban. If Almeida is fit enough to play after the international break, he should be a near-lock to reclaim his place on the pitch.
