Fali - Non-serious injury Jimenez (undisclosed) underwent multiple tests to determine the extent of the injury he picked up during Thursday's clash with Barcelona.

Impact Jimenez's tests came back negative, ruling out a serious injury, but the club still needs to wait a week to decide the extent of the injury. Until the severity of the injury is decided expect Marcos Mauro to fill in for Jimenez at the very least for a week or two. Jimenez will hope to have a timeline for his recovery before Saturday's clash with Valencia.

Anthony Lozano - Back in starting XI Lozano (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Friday's match against Celta Vigo.

Impact Lozano returns to the XI after missing last weekend with a minor issue picked up before the break. He's been playing in a variety of positions to open the season, but in addition to being an early sub candidate, he's produced just one shot in three starts.

Anthony Lozano - Returns to training Lozano participated in Thursday's training session, according to AS.

Impact Lozano had missed Sunday's loss to Real Sociedad given the time constraints of the international break but is now back and should be ready to play. This would put him in line to start in Friday's match at Celta Vigo, as he's started the first three games of the season.

Alberto Perea - Remains out Perea didn't participate in Tuesday's training session, according to Diario de Cadiz.

Impact Perea isn't likely to play in Friday's trip to Celta Vigo as a cartilage issue in his knee has recently prevented him from training. With one start in three appearances, this shouldn't impact his place in the team too much.

Juan Cala - Sees red card against Sociedad Cala took one shot (not on target), made one tackle (zero won), two interceptions, five clearances and two blocks and was shown a red card in Sunday's 2-0 loss to Real Sociedad

Impact Cala was having a good defensive outing, despite their loss at home, but was sent off in the 83rd minute after receiving his second yellow card. The centerback is suspended for Friday's visit to Celta and will be eligible to return against Barcelona on Sep 23.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Alfonso Espino - Makes six tackles in loss Espino registered two inaccurate crosses, six tackles (three won), four interceptions, six clearances and a yellow card in Sunday's 2-0 loss to Real Sociedad.

Impact Espino had a good defensive performance, leading his side in tackles and interceptions, but it wasn't enough to avoid the home loss. The left-back also received his second yellow card of the season in the proccess. He will now face another tough matchup at Celta on Friday.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Alvaro Negredo - Takes one shot in loss Negredo took one off-target shot, made two clearances and picked up a yellow card in Sunday's 2-0 loss to Real Sociedad

Impact Negredo had a pretty quiet outing, as they failed to win at home. The forward also received his first yellow card of the season. He will now look to find the back of the net at Celta on Friday.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jeremías Ledesma - Makes two saves in loss Ledesma made two saves in Sunday's 2-0 loss to Real Sociedad.

Impact Ledesma could not help them avoid another loss, as he has yet to keep a clean sheet in the season -- and they have yet to win. The goalkeeper will now look to bounce back when they visit Celta on Friday.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jose Mari - Still out Mari (muscular) is set to miss Sunday's visit from Real Sociedad as he has yet to return to training, according to Diario de Cadiz.

Impact Mari has yet to play this season and it's unclear when he'll get his chance. Tomas Alarcon has started all three games and is likely to keep his place in the midfield for now.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Santiago Arzamendia - Recovers from injury Arzamendia featured in Sunday's World Cup Qualifier and completed his recovery from a neck strain, according to Diario de Cadiz.

Impact Arzamendia has yet to play in La Liga since joining Cadiz but now has a better chance once the international break is completed and any quarantine procedures have been passed. As the coming match against Real Sociedad nears, Arzamendia will compete for his place in the lineup with Pacha Espino.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jeremías Ledesma - Concedes three in loss Ledesma conceded three goals and made one save during Sunday's 3-2 loss to Osasuna.

Impact Ledesma had a two-goal buffer for most of the match but two strikes added in stoppage time saw him end up on the losing end of the score line. Without a win in three games but with nine saves made, Ledesma has some potential for decent value if results start falling his way. Up next is a visit from Real Sociedad.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Varazdat Haroyan - Plays first half in loss Haroyan conceded a yellow card while playing in the first half of Sunday's 3-2 loss to Osasuna.

Impact Haroyan has started all three games to begin the season, making 10 clearances. Should he remain in the starting lineup, it's important that he starts accruing a few clean sheets, or at least becomes even more active defensively. Up next is a visit from Real Sociedad.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Alvaro Negredo - Shotless in loss Negredo failed to take a shot in 68 minutes of Sunday's 3-2 loss to Osasuna.

Impact Negredo has one of the lower shooting rates of any regular starter in his league, so his value may never be the most consistent. With this in mind, it's still worth monitoring his progress if the team comes together around him. Up next is a visit from Real Sociedad.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Salvi Sanchez - Logs assist in loss Salvi provided one assist from one chance created in 78 minutes of Sunday's 3-2 loss to Osasuna.

Impact Salvi has only created two chances through three starts, but at least one finally ended up setting up a goal. Without greater attacking support beyond a solid double from Alex, there may not be much to gain from Salvi for now.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Alex - Scores twice in loss Alex scored two goals from four shots (three on goal, one penalty) during Sunday's 3-2 loss to Osasuna.

Impact Alex is already off to a better start this season and nearly dragged his team to a positive result with this effort. While there still isn't any single attacker who's put up reliable numbers from this team, Alex seems to have the best odds of getting that started if he can stay fit. Up next is a visit from Real Sociedad.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Alberto Perea - Dealing with knee issue Perea continues to deal with cartilage breakdown in his knee and will be rested before returning to training next week ahead of the Sept. 12 game against Sociedad.

Impact Perea avoided surgery on his knee a few weeks ago, but it's clear he's still not completely over the injury. While he's appeared in the first three matches of the season, he hasn't been his best self and only made it 45 minutes in his lone start. At this point, extended rest may be better for him than playing through knee pain.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Ruben Sobrino - Joins Cadiz permanently Sobrino signed a three-year contract with Cadiz after transferring from Valencia, the club announced Monday.

Impact Sobrino has joined Cadiz permanently after making 16 appearances (11 starts) in La Liga for them during a loan spell for the second half of last season. He has only scored one league goal in each of his last two seasons, but he will try to better that mark now that he should have more stable playing time with Cadiz.

AUGUST 30, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Florin Andone - Joins Cadiz on loan Andone joined Cadiz on loan from Brighton for the 2021/22 season.

Impact Andone seems to have finally overcome a torn ACL suffered in September of 2020 and will look to get his career back on track. When last in La Liga, Andone scored 18 goals in two seasons for Deportivo La Coruna, so he certainly has the pedigree to help out Alvaro Negredo and Choco Lozano at forward if he finds a good rhythm.

AUGUST 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jeremías Ledesma - Gives up one in draw Ledesma conceded one goal and made six saves during Friday's 1-1 draw with Betis.

Impact Ledesma is off to a solid start to the season with eight saves made and two goals against, but a lack of scoring help from his teammates won't help out his value as much. He'll next face Osasuna in a third home game from four to start this campaign.

AUGUST 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Anthony Lozano - Takes one shot in draw Lozano put one shot on target and created one chance during 76 minutes of Friday's 1-1 draw with Real Betis.

Impact Lozano was at least able to put a shot on target in this game, as he couldn't even manage that in the season opening draw with Levante. Until he manages to prove he can do more than take the occasional shot, Lozano won't offer nearly as much as more active players.

AUGUST 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Salvi Sanchez - Solid in draw Salvi took two shots (one on goal) and provided three inaccurate crosses during Friday's 1-1 draw with Real Betis.

Impact Salvi has taken three shots and logged six crosses in two games, which are reasonable if unspectacular numbers to open the season. Should he be able to up his crossing production to match the previous campaign, Salvi will be trending more in the right direction than he currently does.

AUGUST 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Alvaro Negredo - Scores from spot in draw Negredo scored one penalty goal on his only shot during 69 minutes of Friday's 1-1 draw with Real Betis.

Impact Negredo scored in his second appearance during last season as well, so he's on track to remain the top striking option for his club even if he doesn't produce consistently enough for fantasy. Given how important he remains for this team, it's entirely possible that he'll turn this game into a hot streak to carry into the next match against Osasuna.

AUGUST 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Alberto Perea - Makes squad list Perea (knee) made the squad list for Friday's match against Real Betis.

Impact Perea checks off the final box in his fitness after avoiding surgery and training in anticipation of this match. He logged 31 minutes off the bench to open the season and may serve a similar role in game two.

AUGUST 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Alberto Perea - Avoids surgery, ready for next game Perea (knee) managed to avoid surgery on his knee and will be available Friday at Betis after training Wednesday, according to Diario de Cadiz.

Impact Perea came off the bench during the opening draw with Levante and can do the same in game two if selected.

AUGUST 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jeremías Ledesma - Concedes once in draw Ledesma made two saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Levante.

Impact Ledesma made two big saves during the first half, but then saw Jose Luis Morales beating him with a stunning shot that went into the top corner in the 39th minute. The goalkeeper didn't have to work during the second half as his side adopted a more offensive approach in search of a game-tying goal. Up next for Ledesma is Friday's visit to Betis.
