Robert Lewandowski - Takes five shots versus AtletiLewandowski had five off-target shots during Sunday's 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid.
ImpactLewandowski had a way better performance than the one from midweek's UCL match and had several scoring chances but his accuracy was atypically low as none of his five attempts found the target and some of them were way off. This has been a rare drought for the striker, who was scoreless in nine of his last 10 appearances in all competitions. He'll try to bounce back during next Sunday's clash against Girona.

Raphinha - Logs assist against AtletiRaphinha made an assist, had two off-target shoots, created two chances, sent in four crosses (one accurate) and drew one foul during Sunday's 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid.
ImpactRaphinha made his first league start in two months and picked up where he left off in midweek's UCL win over Porto, using his speed to help his side transitioning to offense and creating some plays from the flank. And his biggest contribution came in the 28th minute when he made a great run before setting up Joao Felix's winner with a great pass. That's now two goals and three assists over 14 appearances in all competitions for Raphinha, who will hope to remain in the lineup for next Sunday's clash against Girona.

Joao Felix - Scores winner versus AtletiFelx scored a goal off three shots (two on target), created one chance, drew five fouls and was shown a yellow card during Sunday's 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid.
ImpactFelix faced Atletico for the first time since moving to Barcelona at the end of the summer transfer window and ended up being the hero for the Catalans as he scored the lone goal of the match with a classy finish over the goalkeeper in the 28th minute. The forward, who has been great in European competition but not that great in La Liga this season, has now five goals and three assists over 17 appearances in all competitions. Up next for him is Sunday's clash against Girona.

Inigo Martinez - Dealing with hamstring injuryMartinez is dealing with a hamstring injury and his timetable to return is uncertain, Sergi de Juan of Diario AS reports.
ImpactMartinez picked up the injury during warmups before Sunday's game against Atletico Madrid, and further tests revealed the injury. Hamstring injuries are tricky, but Martinez should be out a few weeks at a minimum, and there's a strong chance he won't return to action until next year.

Nahuel Molina - Plays first half vs BarcaMolina (undisclosed) started at right-back and played 45 minutes in Sunday's loss to Barcelona. He finished with one shot on target, one cross and two fouls drawn.
ImpactThe Argentinian defender was doubtful to face Los Blaugranas after picking up a knock against Feyenoord in the UEFA Champions League, but he was fit enough to start and play against Barca. This means he should continue to be available for selection, and he is likely to remain on the right side of the defense when Atletico takes on Almeria on Sunday.
