Renato Tapia - On bench Thursday Tapia (calf) will be available as a substitute versus Real Sociedad on Thursday.
Impact Tapia will be back in the squad following a two-game absence due to his calf issue. Barring any setbacks, the midfielder should be in the mix to reclaim his spot in the starting XI ahead of Monday's matchup with Rayo Vallecano considering he started the club's first eight contests of the year.

Celta wins 3-0, keeps Getafe winless in Spanish league
Santi Mina has scored twice and Iago Aspas once as Celta Vigo defeated last-place Getafe 3-0 to keep its opponent winless in the Spanish leagueOCTOBER 25, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Renato Tapia - Still sidelined Monday Tapia (calf) will not be available against Getafe on Monday.
Impact Tapia will miss his second straight contest due to his calf problem. Prior to getting hurt, Tapia started eight straight matches for the club in which he registered two shots (zero on target), 21 tackles (14 won) and 16 interceptions. While he should reclaim his spot in the midfielder once cleared to play, Tapia's limited offensive upside will prevent him from offering more than low-end fantasy value.

Jose Fontán - Dealing with knee sprain Fontan (knee) is dealing with a knee injury he picked up in training, and will be out for Monday's trip to Getafe.
Impact Fontan picked up a left knee sprain in training and while meniscus damage and ligament injuries have been ruled out he will still miss Monday's trip to Getafe. The defender is likely to be replaced by Joseph Aidoo in the starting XI. He will hope to return for an Oct. 28 clash with Sociedad.
OCTOBER 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Nestor Araujo - Returns to bench Araujo (ankle) was an unused substitute during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Sevilla.
Impact Araujo was on the bench Sunday, making his recovery after suffering an ankle bruise before the international break. The defender didn't play, but likely will return to the starting XI Monday, away to Getafe.
OCTOBER 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Matias Dituro - Abysmal in loss Dituro made one save during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Sevilla.
Impact Dituro faced two shots and only saved once, a disappointing return coming out of the international break. The keeper failed to contain the Sevilla attack on limited chances. He will look to bounce back Monday, away to Getafe.
OCTOBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Javi Galan - Busy in loss Galan created one chance and made two interceptions during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Sevilla.
Impact Galan failed to get much going Sunday, though he was active on both sides of the ball. The defender failed to get forward often, though his three crosses did give him a single created chance. He will hope for more defensive volume Monday, away to Getafe.
OCTOBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Hugo Mallo - Wasteful with five crosses Mallo sent in five inaccurate crosses, creating one chance during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Sevilla.
Impact Mallo had plenty of chances to whip a ball in but failed to get much done. The defender struggled to get much going going forward and put together what was his worst performance of the season. The defender will look to find his form again Monday, away to Getafe.
OCTOBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Santi Mina - Held quiet in loss Mina shot three times, off target, during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Sevilla.
Impact Mina had a few shots but none were threatening, and he looked largely off the pace. The Sevilla defense did well to contain the forward, who has fallen out of form recently. He will look to get back in the goals Monday, against Getafe.
OCTOBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Iago Aspas - Creates six chances Aspas created six chances on six crosses (two accurate) during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Sevilla.
Impact Aspas had a duty on corners that gave him a floor, but it was his excellent creativity that put together his brilliant performance. The forward hasn't had an assist in his last three matches, but if he keeps this level up he will be back on the scoresheet quickly. Next up is a Monday trip to Getafe.
OCTOBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Brais Mendez - Returns to partial group training Mendez (ankle) has made a partial return to group training, according to the Celta injury report.
Impact Mendez suffered a low-grade ankle sprain in the last match before the international break, but it appears he is healing quickly. A partial return to team training is a good start for a return against Sevilla on Oct. 17. If he can return to full team training sometime during the week he should be good to go Sunday.
OCTOBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Renato Tapia - Withdraws from national team Tapia (calf) withdrew from the national team after traveling to Peru, according to Erick Osores.
Impact Tapia confusingly reported for international duty despite suffering a calf injury directly before the break. The midfielder either aggravated the injury, or it was more serious than originally thought, because he was sent back to Spain after reporting. The midfielder will hope to be healthy before Sunday's clash with Sevilla.
OCTOBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Matias Dituro - Three saves in loss Dituro made three saves and one clearance during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Elche.
Impact Dituro wasn't overly tested by Elche, but he did well on the small amount of shots he faced. He was let down by the team in front of him, a consistent risk with the slow start Celta is off to. He will hope the team as a whole finds form after the international break.
OCTOBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Hugo Mallo - Excellent volume Mallo made five tackles and two interceptions during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Elche.
Impact Mallo had plenty of defensive volume as he has for the rest of the season. The right-back has yet to get on the scoresheet, but has been fantasy viable each and every week of the campaign. Mallo will likely continue to be a defensive vacuum after the international break.
OCTOBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Javi Galan - Four crosses in loss Galan sent in four inaccurate crosses during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Elche on Sunday.
Impact Galan had plenty of chances to send in crosses, but failed to create a single chance on those crosses. He did salvage the performance with two interceptions and three tackles though it wasn't enough to give him much fantasy viability. Galan has plenty of creativity, but until he can finally get on the scoresheet consistently he isn't a consistently viable option.
OCTOBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Iago Aspas - Shut down before break Aspas shot off target three times during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Elche.
Impact Aspas had plenty of chances but none of them ended up being even slightly threatening. The forward looked oddly quiet, as he has all season, in 2020 he put together 27 goal contributions in 33 appearances, in 2021 he's on pace for 12. Aspas will hope to bounce back after the international break.
OCTOBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Nolito - Foot injury deemed non-issue Nolito came off injured with a foot injury during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Elche, but it's non serious, according to the club's injury report.
Impact Nolito was in obvious pain when he was brought off the pitch, but in the end it appears it was nothing but a contusion on his foot. He will be held out of active training, but should be good-to-go for an Oct. 17 clash with Sevilla.
OCTOBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Renato Tapia - Injured vs. Elche Tapia suffered a muscular injury during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Elche, according to Celta Vigo's medical report.
Impact Tapia suffered a double muscular strain injury during Sunday's clash, but did travel with his international team. It appears that the midfielder should be able to fully heal with next to no issues before an Oct. 17 clash with Sevilla.
OCTOBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Nestor Araujo - Suffer ankle contusion Araujo suffered an ankle contusion during Sunday's clash with Elche, according to the club's medical report.
Impact Araujo was hurt against Elche, but did travel with his national team, so it appears that it is not an overly serious injury. The defender is a question for an Oct. 17 clash with Sevilla after the break, but if he avoids aggravating his injury he is likely to play.
OCTOBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Brais Mendez - Ankle sprain confirmed Mendez (ankle) suffered a grade 1-2 lateral ankle sprain, and will be out of training for at least a few days.
Impact Mendez's ankle sprain leaves him in doubt for the other side of the international break, though the club didn't give any official timeline for his return. The hope is he will be able to take on Sevilla on the other side of the break.
