Goncalo Paciencia - Comes off bench in win Paciencia put one shot off target during 35 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 1-0 win over Real Betis.

Impact Paciencia returns after hand and muscular injuries knocked him out for the last month. When fit enough to start, he and Jorgen Strand Larsen will compete to be the second striker next to Iago Aspas while Carles Perez can also play in the position.

Oscar - All over pitch in victory Oscar took three shots (all on target), sent in four crosses (two accurate) and added four corners and one interception during Sunday's 1-0 victory over Real Betis.

Impact With fellow attacker Iago Aspas on the bench to start this matchup, Oscar was a focal point of the Celta offense throughout the full 90. His four crosses and corners paced all players on his squad, and he was a bit unlucky not to find the score sheet with three shots on goal.

OCTOBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Jorgen Strand Larsen - Quiet statistically in win Larsen had one cross (zero accurate) and zero chances created in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Betis. He was also shown yellow once.

Impact The stat line doesn't really tell the whole story here, as Larsen was busy out on the wing for almost all of the 55 minutes he was on the pitch. He subbed off for rest purposes, giving way to a more defensive-minded Renato Tapia while his team worked to hang onto a narrow 1-0 lead.

Agustin Marchesin - Blanks Betis for CS Marchesin made four saves and logged one clearance while keeping a clean sheet in Sunday's 1-0 victory versus Betis.

Impact This was an excellent showing for the veteran keeper, as clean sheet victories over a dangerous Betis squad are not easy to come by. Granted, the opposition played most of this one down to 10 men, but they still were able to generate a few decent scoring opportunities to contend with. Marchesin made a number of nice stops early in this contest that set the tone for the rest of the match and was a huge contributor to his team's three-point outcome. It doesn't get any easier Sunday at Barcelona, though.

OCTOBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Iago Aspas - Logs 15 minutes off bench Aspas appeared as a substitute in 15 minutes of relief and took one shot during Sunday's 1-0 victory over Betis.

Impact Aspas subbed into this contest during the 75th minute with his squad leading 1-0. It was somewhat unclear why he was omitted from the initial starting XI - perhaps due to fatigue from international play - but he replaced Carles Perez to help close this one out.

OCTOBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Gabriel Veiga - Scores lone goal in win Veiga scored one goal to go with one shot (one on target) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-0 victory versus Real Betis. He was also shown yellow once.

Impact Veiga fired an excellent strike into the bottom right corner to open-and-close the scoring in this contest. It was the first-ever home Liga goal for the 20-year-old, who is quickly establishing himself as one of the most dynamic young talents within the Celta academy. This was his first start on the league season across seven matches, and he's now tallied two goals to go with one assist. He subbed off for rest purposes in the 70th minute.

OCTOBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Goncalo Paciencia - With medical clearance Paciencia (hamstring, hand) has received full clearance ahead of Sunday's match against Betis.

Impact Paciencia missed all of September with hand and hamstring injuries but a good week of training during the international break brings him back into the fold. He will now compete with Jorgen Strand Larsen to be the second forward next to Iago Aspas, though of the two it's Paciencia with far more experience.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Luca de la Torre - Three appearances off bench De la Torre has made three appearances off the bench in six matches to open the season.

Impact De la Torre just joined Celta in the offseason and evidently has some ways to go before he's trusted to start. That makes sense after spending last season playing for Heracles in the Netherlands, though the promise he showed then was enough that he'll be able to earn some chances when ready.

SEPTEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Jorgen Strand Larsen - Solid start with new team Larsen has logged one assist in three appearances (two starts) this season with Celta Vigo.

Impact Larsen was a late addition to Celta as the transfer window came to a close and he did well to fill the gap left by an injury to Goncalo Paciencia. He's also taken seven shots (two on goal) over his two starts and could offer serious value once he starts to find the net. While playing next to the consistent Iago Aspas, Larsen should be able to score a few goals himself as long as he keeps his place in the lineup.

SEPTEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Joseph Aidoo - Regular starter Aidoo has started in all six matches to open the season, keeping two clean sheets and logging eight tackles.

Impact Aidoo and defensive partner Unai Nunez have formed a reliable duo at the back for an increasingly strong team. With most of the production coming from Iago Aspas in the attack, Aidoo mostly needs to keep things close, but that hasn't happened with seven goals conceded over his last two starts which ended as losses to Atletico Madrid and Valencia.

SEPTEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Goncalo Paciencia - Returns to training Paciencia (hamstring) trained with his teammates during Monday's session.

Impact Paciencia may only miss the month of September as he now has two weeks of training ahead of him during the international break. Originally, Paciencia had reportedly suffered a broken hand and grade II hamstring injury which would put him out for six weeks. Instead, he appears to be recovering in good time. When fully fit, he will compete with Jorgen Strand Larsen for a place alongside Iago Aspas unless all three end up starting on the front line.

Iago Aspas - Takes shot against Valencia Aspas took a shot on target and created a chance in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Valencia. He also made a clearance in the match.

Impact Aspas is going through a relative goal drought as he's gone two games without scoring after starting the season by netting in four consecutive matches. He will want to get back on the scoresheet after the international break against Betis.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Agustin Marchesin - Concedes three goals to Valencia Marchesin made four saves but conceded three goals in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Valencia.

Impact Marchesin was beaten by strikes from Samu Castillejo, Marcos Andre and Andre Almeida on Saturday, but in his defense the latter two came after Franco Cervi had gotten sent off around the hour mark for Celta. Still, Marchesin has allowed seven goals in his last two games now and things won't get any easier after the international break as he faces Real Betis, which sit third in the table in La Liga and have scored 10 goals in six matches this season.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Franco Cervi - Sent off against Valencia Cervi was shown a straight red card in the 59th minute of Saturday's defeat against Valencia following a foul on Thierry Correia. He created a chance and won two of four tackles in...

Impact Cervi has started all six of Celta's La Liga matches this season, but he will be suspended for the Oct. 2 clash against Real Betis after getting sent off Sunday, and possibly for longer if the league deems it necessary. Carles Perez and Augusto Solari are options to replace him in midfield.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Oscar - Starting against Valencia Oscar is fit and in the starting Xi to face Valencia on Saturday.

Impact Oscar returns after missing out on Celta's previous match with a thigh injury. The attacker starts straightaway during Saturday's La Liga clash with Valencia.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Oscar - Makes squad list Oscar (thigh) made the squad list for Saturday's trip to Valencia.

Impact Oscar has missed just one game due to a thigh strain but could be back as soon as this clash with Los Che. He's scored one goal in four starts to open the season and should be able to start over Franco Cervi if fit as Jorgen Strand Larsen might be hard to push out of the lineup at the moment.
