Koke - Takes two shots in win Koke took two shots and created two chances in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Athletic Club. He also made two clearances and won one of one tackles in the match.

As such, his potential absence from the squad versus Real Madrid is unlikely to have an impact on the majority of fantasy players. Even once cleared to play, Reguilon figures to go back to being a substitute option.

He has also been working on accurately winning tackles, with 11 won out of 16 attempts in the last six contests.

Impact Koke bossed the middle of the park here, disrupting several offensive actions from the opposition but at the same time couldn't provide the attacking input Atletico supporters are used to see from him.

Impact Molina was active as usual on the attacking end, sending cross after cross after cross into the opposition's box, but at the same time couldn't make the same statistical impact on defense, which limited his fantasy output. Anyway, despite the lack of appearances on the scoresheet, the right-back is one of La Liga's best fantasy contributors at his position.
