Impact Berchiche has been out since July with a groin injury that he underwent surgery on, but he's back with his teammates and should be close to returning to the pitch.

Inigo Martinez - Completes suspension Martinez completed his suspension during Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Martinez should be clear for Monday's encounter with Getafe after missing the midweek loss against another club from the Madrid area. Injuries and suspensions have taken Martinez out of three of the last six games, so he'll hope for a better run of form to close out 2021.

Unai Simon - Concedes one in loss Simon conceded one goal and made six saves during Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Simon continues to see results go against his record despite playing well for much of the season. A gap in the defense and a mistaken shot fell straight to Karim Benzema for the game's only goal, so Simon still comes away with a solid performance to prevent any more goals from the league's top attack. Up next should be an easier matchup against Getafe, which have scored the fewest goals in La Liga.

Inigo Lekue - Logs four crosses in loss Lekue provided four crosses (one accurate) and conceded a yellow card during Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Lekue was replaced by Oscar de Marcos at the start of the second half but it seems to have been motivated by tactics instead of an injury. With Lekue logging 20 crosses over his last four starts at right-back, it remains to be seen if his early withdrawal is a sign he won't keep his spot as a starter despite some solid outings. Up next is a trip to Getafe.

Oier Zarraga - Starts in loss Zarraga put two shots off target and created one chance during Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Zarraga logged his second start of the season but also conceded a yellow card for a second straight match. He's looked solid when given the chance to play, but some tinkering to the lineup hasn't resulted in better offensive performances as a team. Zarraga will hope to remain in the lineup for Monday's trip to Getafe.

Iker Muniain - Creates four chances in loss Muniain created four chances from four crosses and put one shot off target in 70 minutes of Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Muniain has created an impressive six chances over his last two starts but he's completed the full 90 just once in his last four appearances. With his solid base production from set pieces as well, Muniain can be a reliable option from a team that's struggling to consistently score goals. Up next is a trip to Getafe, which does well to limit possession in midfield but has also conceded 19 goals in 15 games.

Raul Garcia - Takes two shots in loss Garcia took two shots (one on goal) and created one chance during Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Garcia has scored just once in his last six matches (four starts). While he's shown some progress with one goal from two shots on target over his last two appearances, there's still more to be done if Garcia can hold reliable fantasy relevance. Up next is a trip to Getafe, which are tied for the fourth-most goals conceded to forwards in La Liga.
DECEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Inaki Williams - Takes four shots in loss Williams put four shots off target and created one chance during Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Williams has scored just three goals all season and none in his last five appearances (four starts). While the attack certainly looks better when he's on the pitch, a lack of production is alarming when the team has one of the stronger defensive records in the league. Up next is a trip to Getafe, which have conceded 19 goals in 15 matches.

Yuri Berchiche - Will miss Wednesday clash Berchiche (groin/Achilles) is out for Wednesday's clash with Real Madrid after failing to make the preliminary squad.
Impact Berchiche will be out yet again as he continues to deal with an Achilles issue that he picked up while recovering from groin surgery. The defender will hope to return next time out, away against Getafe on Monday.
