Brahim Diaz - Comes off after scoring Diaz scored before limping off during Tuesday's clash with RB Leipzig.
Impact Diaz was holding his calf before being helped off the pitch by the training staff. The forward got the start for the second time in three matches and scored for the second time in three matches for an all-around excellent showing. Diaz will likely be rotated for Sunday's trip to Rayo even if the injury doesn't prove to be serious, though a calf problem could prove to be severe.

Nacho - Starting Tuesday Nacho (strain) is in the starting XI for Tuesday's UCL clash against Leipzig.
Impact Nacho earns the start Tuesday after missing Saturday's match against Girona due to a strain, having healed from the injury after only missing one game. Many expected Nacho to get the start if healthy to face Leipzig, as he is the only senior center-back left in the team, having to team up with normal midfielder Aurelien Tchoumeni in the middle of the defense due to Antonio Rudiger (thigh), Eder Militao (knee) and David Alaba (knee) all being out due to injury. He will most likely find the starting XI once again Sunday against Rayo unless Rudiger somehow is fit by then.
