Guido Carrillo - Creates two chances in win Carrillo created two chances during Sunday's 1-0 win over Villarreal.

Impact Carrillo has started each of the last three matches, which is his longest such streak in the lineup this season. As he's started at forward but has yet to contribute to a goal, he'll remain less valuable than the energy recently provided from Lucas Boye, who scored the winner off the bench.

Gonzalo Verdu - Keeps clean sheet in win Verdu kept a clean sheet and conceded a yellow card during Sunday's 1-0 win over Villarreal.

Impact Verdu sits on eight yellow cards in 11 league appearances this season but he also has three clean sheets, so he's made up for his physical play with a few positive results. It will be interesting to see which aspect of his game flourishes in the next match, which will take place at Real Madrid on Sunday.

Gerard Gumbau - Provides assist in win Gumbau provided one assist from one chance created and took three shots (one on goal) during Sunday's 1-0 win over Villarreal.

Impact Gumbau has started each of the last three matches, logging one assist from five chances created and conceding 10 fouls in that time. As he was able to assist without fouling in Sunday's game, this could be a sign of his improving form, though an upcoming trip to Real Madrid is always difficult.

Lucas Boye - Scores winner Boye scored one goal in 24 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 1-0 win over Villarreal.

Impact Boye returned from a two-match absence and kept up his good form with a second goal in three appearances plus one assist. Following this result, it wouldn't be surprising to see him return to the lineup for Sunday's trip to Real Madrid.

Enzo Roco - Pulled from XI Roco has been replaced by Gonzalo Verdu in the lineup for Sunday's match versus Villarreal due to a physical problem during the warm-ups, Elche informed.

Impact Roco will likely be assessed after the match to determine the severity of the last-minute injury.

Edgar Badía - Concedes one in win Badia conceded one goal and made one save during Monday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.

Impact Badia has conceded just one goal over his last two starts while making two saves. While he's shown some solid play in these games, the schedule brings Villarreal and Real Madrid in the next two matches, each of which feature some of the best attacking sides in La Liga.

JANUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Johan Mojica - Logs assist in win Mojica provided one assist from one chance created and logged five tackles (one won) during Monday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.

Impact Mojica has created four chances from 14 crosses in his last two starts and was able to record his first assist in seven games during Monday's victory. Though not the most consistent when it comes to crossing, Mojica has been plenty active during his side's recent good form and could be considered a reasonable target. Up next is a visit from Villarreal, which are tied for the second-most goals scored in La Liga.

JANUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Tete Morente - Logs assist in win Morente provided one assist from one chance created in 70 minutes of Monday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.

Impact Morente has been rather productive recently with three assists and two goals from his last six matches. As he's only played 45 minutes in two of these games and completed the full 90 just once, this has been a solid run capable of turning around his team's fortunes in favor of true survival in La Liga. Up next is a visit from Villarreal, which have conceded the most goals to midfielders in La Liga.

JANUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Pere Milla - Scores twice in win Milla scored two goals on two shots and conceded a yellow card during Monday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.

Impact Milla has scored three goals in his last three games and was the most productive player on the pitch during his first start since the second match of the season. He'll next face Villarreal, which have conceded the most goals to midfielders in La Liga.

Pedro Bigas - Late scratch against Espanyol Bigas was replaced in Elche's starting lineup by Gonzalo Verdu right before Monday's match against Espanyol due to discomfort.

Impact It is unclear how serious Bigas' injury is at the moment, but he will be questionable for next weekend's clash against Villarreal.

Fidel - Suspended against Espanyol Fidel will miss Monday's clash against Espanyol with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.

Impact Fidel picked up his fifth booking of the season in last weekend's draw against Granada, meaning he will be suspended for Monday's game. Pablo Piatti is likely to fill in on the left wing in his absence for the game.

Edgar Badía - Keeps clean sheet at home Badia kept a clean sheet with five saves made during Sunday's scoreless draw with Granada.

Impact Badia recorded his first clean sheet in seven appearances this season after shutting down an in-form opponent. Even this one successful result may not be sustainable with more offensive help, so take Badia's work with a grain of salt unless he continues to play well. Up next is a trip to Espanyol, which have scored 22 goals in 19 games this season.

Johan Mojica - Creates three chances in draw Mojica created three chances from 10 crosses (four accurate) during Sunday's scoreless draw with Granada.

Impact Mojica logged 10 crosses for the fourth time this season but was only able to secure his fourth clean sheet instead of a third assist. With three of these games coming in his last seven starts, Mojica may be showing signs of reliable improvement. He'll test his luck in the next match against Espanyol.

JANUARY 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Gerard Gumbau - Creates four chances in draw Gumbau created four chances from eight crosses (five accurate) and put one shot off target during Sunday's scoreless draw with Granada.

Impact Gumbau has made just four starts all season but seems to get a big role on set pieces whenever he does, as he's now taken 12 in his last two starts. With the gap between these minutes spanning over a month, he certainly has room for improvement, and he'll try to take that chance in the next match against Espanyol.

JANUARY 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Javier Pastore - Plays 54 minutes in draw Pastore put two shots off target and conceded a yellow card in 54 minutes of Sunday's scoreless draw with Granada.

Impact Pastore has started in just five of his nine appearances this season and it seems his absence from the lineup has been justified based on his limited minutes. Should he continue to get chances, things could certainly change, but it remains to be seen when that could happen. Up next is Monday's trip to Espanyol.

JANUARY 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Guido Carrillo - Has goal called back Carrillo took three shots (one on goal) and created two chances in 80 minutes of Sunday's scoreless draw with Granada.

Impact Carrillo had a goal called off in the first half after putting his cleats into the hands of a diving Luis Maximiano but otherwise looked decent in his second start of the season. Given that he's still without a goal, there isn't much to look for in Carrillo unless he continues to appear in the lineup. Up next is Monday's trip to Espanyol.

Diego Gonzalez - Sent off against Granada Gonzalez received a straight red card for a foul on Luis Suarez in the 47th minute of Sunday's draw against Granada.

Impact Gonzalez will be suspended for next week's clash against Espanyol. Gonzalo Verdu might be fit enough to return to the starting lineup in central defense for the game.

Edgar Badía - Concedes three goals against Barcelona Badia made four saves but conceded three goals in Saturday's 3-2 defeat against Barcelona.

Impact Badia was beaten by early strikes from Ferran Jutgla and Gavi, as well as a late heart-breaker from Nico that canceled out Elche's comeback on Saturday. He is yet to keep a clean sheet in six La Liga games this season, but after the winter break he will face Granada, which have scored 17 goals in 16 matches.
