Andriy Lunin - Concedes one in winLunin conceded one goal and made four saves during Sunday's 3-1 win over Barcelona.

ImpactLunin made the most saves he's had to in a single game this season, securing an impressive home win during the biggest club match in Spain. With just four goals conceded in five starts, Lunin has been a safe pair of hands, and he may get one more start if Thibaut Courtois (sciatica) isn't ready by Wednesday's trip to Elche.

Rodrygo - Scores penalty in winRodrygo scored one penalty goal in five minutes as a substitute during Sunday's 3-1 win over Barcelona.

ImpactRodrygo came off the bench for the first time in eight matches but still scored his fourth goal in that time. It has been impressive for Rodrygo to produce numbers of this level, though the injuries for Karim Benzema have helped him play more frequently. Now that he's in good form, expect Rodrygo to continue making an impact during a busy period before the World Cup break.

Toni Kroos - Key presence in winKroos created one chance and won three-of-five tackles during Sunday's 3-1 win over Barcelona.

ImpactKroos didn't have a massive attacking stat line but his one key pass split the defense for Karim Benzema's goal despite a heavy challenge from Sergio Busquets. While Kroos often has better baseline value thanks to his role on set pieces, he didn't have as much of the ball with Barca dominating possession but still made his efforts count. Against other opponents, it should be easier for Kroos to establish his presence offensively.

Federico Valverde - Scores in winValverde scored one goal from one shot and created one chance during Sunday's 3-1 win over Barcelona.

ImpactValverde scored for the first time in five matches, adding another effort against a big rival after scoring his last league goal against Atletico Madrid. With a relatively easy but busy schedule until the World Cup break, Valverde could be one to track if he starts scoring with regularity again, as he scored four times and logged two assists in a seven-match stretch between August and September.

Ferland Mendy - Logs assist in winMendy logged one assist from two chances created during Sunday's 3-1 win over Barcelona.

ImpactMendy recorded his first assist of the season to help take down a floundering Barca side. With starts in five of the last six games, Mendy is doing well to play consistently but he's created just four chances in that time and doesn't hold tremendous value.
