Darwin Machis - Out with undisclosed issue Machis was unavailable for Sunday's loss to Real Madrid and the reasons remain unclear, according to Rafael Lamelas of IDEAL.
Impact Machis has started in six of his eight appearances this season but has missed another five for a growing list of reasons. Whatever the truth is amidst any speculation on his status, he hasn't participated in training since returning from the November international window and that will keep him from playing. In his absence, look to Ruben Rochina as the primary creative outlet from this team heading into Friday's trip to Athletic Club.

Impact Diaz pulled up short while trying to catch up with Karim Benzema in the build up to Real Madrid's third goal on Sunday. It is unclear whether he will be forced to miss additional game time due to his injury, but Luis Abram or Domingos Duarte (thigh) if fit could fill in for him against Bilbao on Friday if necessary.

Luis Maximiano - Concedes four in loss Maximiano conceded four goals and made five saves during Sunday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Once again, Maximiano made plenty of saves but couldn't get a good result with the rest of the team struggling to hold their own. Following this game, Maximiano ranks second in the league in total saves and will next face Athletic Club, which are tied for the second-most saves forced in La Liga but have also scored the joint second-fewest.
NOVEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Carlos Neva - Provides six crosses in loss Neva created one chance from six crosses (two accurate) during Sunday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Neva has stepped up his offensive contribution with 17 crosses over his last three starts, of which all three have ended in defeat. It's not as likely that Neva's changing numbers have a big impact on his team's struggles to record positive results, but it's a decent sign for his fantasy value individually. Up next is a trip to Athletic Club, which feature the best defensive record in La Liga with eight goals conceded in 13 matches.
NOVEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Ruben Rochina - Plays at forward in loss Rochina provided four crosses (one accurate) in 59 minutes of Sunday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Rochina was positioned as the second forward alongside Luis Javier Suarez, and it was the first time this season he's been used in that role. It unfortunately ended without a chance created by Rochina for the first time in five matches, but he still took enough corners to keep his base value at a reasonable average. He'll need to work even harder in the next match at Athletic Club, which hold the best defensive record in the league.
NOVEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Maxime Gonalons - Logs assist in loss Gonalons provided one assist from one chance created in 58 minutes of Sunday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Gonalons returned from a three-match absence due to a hamstring issue and promptly helped Luis Javier Suarez to their side's only goal of Sunday's contest. Though his statistical lean is certain to be more defensive, the presence of Gonalons in the lineup adds certain experience that should boost the overall results of his team, though this isn't as important in fantasy. Up next is a trip to the league's top defensive side in Athletic Club.
NOVEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Luis Suarez - Scores in loss Suarez scored one goal from three shots (two on goal) and created two chances during Sunday's 4-1 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Suarez showed off his talents with a strike against Los Blancos, which marked his second goal from the last three matches. Following a six-match scoring drought in the middle of the season, Suarez has logged nine total shots (three on goal) over the last three matches. He'll next face a tougher matchup against Athletic Club, which have conceded the fewest goals in the league.

Luis Maximiano - Concedes two in loss Maximiano conceded two goals and and made four saves during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Espanyol.
Impact Maximiano was left helpless my Adria Pedrosa's effort from distance and let another by from Raul de Tomas before halftime as he lost his first result in the last five games. As he's still second in the league in saves made, Maximiano is certainly a worthy pickup even if he concedes a goal or two each match. After the international break is a visit from Real Madrid which is sure to test his abilities.
NOVEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Quini - Creates one chance in loss Quini created one chance from four crosses during 59 minutes of Saturday's 2-0 loss to Espanyol.
Impact Quini has started six straight matches at right-back but only completed the full 90 in one of the last four. As he's still contributed to two clean sheets in this time, his value isn't the worst, but his minutes aren't as helpful in a middling team. Up next will be a tougher matchup with Real Madrid, which feature two top talents in Karim Benzema and Vinicius Junior.
NOVEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Carlos Neva - Logs five crosses in loss Neva created two chances from five crosses (one accurate) in 77 minutes of Saturday's 2-0 loss to Espanyol.

NOVEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Ruben Rochina - Creates three chances in loss Rochina created three chances from five crosses (two accurate) and took two shots (one on goal) during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Espanyol.
Impact Rochina couldn't generate a goal in this game but remained a constant presence for his team even in their first lost over the last six games. Following the international break are two tough matchups against Real Madrid and Athletic Club, and Rochina's importance to his team means he could still see plenty of involvement against stronger defenses.
NOVEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Luis Suarez - Active in loss Suarez put three shots off target and created two chances from six crosses (two accurate) during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Espanyol.
Impact Suarez performed decently well on the road, but it wasn't meant to be as none of his efforts came near scoring. With one goal from 10 shots (three on goal) and seven chances created in his last three starts, Suarez appears to be on the right track heading into the international window. After that, he'll face Real Madrid, which could prove a difficult obstacle.
NOVEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Yan Eteki - Won't return before break Eteki (hamstring) will be out until the international break, according to Jose Ignacio Cejudo of IDEAL.
Impact Eteki will be out until after the international break, and is targeting a return for the Nov. 21 clash with Real Madrid. The midfielder will likely be replaced by Angel Montoro until he is able to return later in November.
