Carlos Akapo - Out with foot injury Akapo is expected to miss 6-8 weeks after fracturing a bone in his foot, Cadiz announced Sunday.

Impact Akapo was subbed out of Sunday's draw with Real Madrid in the 76th minute after suffering this injury, which of course will prevent him from playing in next weekend's season finale. He will finish the campaign with five clean sheets in 25 La Liga appearances (21 starts) at right back, but Cadiz are still very much in the relegation battle entering the Alaves match.

Impact Alex executed a similar stat line to the previous round against Elche but this time couldn't provide an assist against a tougher opponent defensively.

Alfonso Espino - Active in loss Espino put four shots off target, logged eight inaccurate crosses and made three interceptions during Thursday's 3-0 loss to Real Sociedad.

Impact Espino was plenty active in the attack but for all his involvement, conceding three goals as a defender and missing the mark on each occasion limited his potential value.

MAY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Lucas Perez - Busy in loss Perez created three chances from seven crosses (one accurate) and took 10 set pieces during Thursday's 3-0 loss to Real Sociedad.

Jeremias Ledesma - Concedes one in draw Ledesma conceded one goal and made five saves during Friday's 1-1 draw with Sevilla.

Impact Ledesma played exceptionally well to limit one of the best sides in the competition to just a single goal from Youssef En-Nesyri. He's kept seven clean sheets in his last 13 matches but hasn't always been a guarantee to gain points, so take advantage of his high save rate (15 in last three games) when looking at Ledesma. Up next is a visit from Elche.
