Alejandro Remiro - Keeps clean sheet at home Remiro kept a clean sheet with one save made during Saturday's 1-0 win over Mallorca.
Impact Remiro has kept two clean sheets in four matches and conceded no more than one goal per game in the other two, which continues an impressive run that's seen him go five straight games without defeat. He'll next face Atletico Madrid, which feature an exceptional talent in Luis Suarez.

Alexander Isak - Takes two shots in win Isak put two shots off target during 67 minutes of Saturday's 1-0 win over Mallorca.
Impact Isak had a busy international break but has still scored just one league goal. With an upcoming match against a strong defense in Atletico Madrid, Isak may rise up to the challenge, or it could be worth holding off until he finds his own stride.
OCTOBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Martin Zubimendi - Logs assist in win Zubimendi provided one assist from one chance created during Saturday's 1-0 win over Mallorca.
Impact Zubimendi only completed six total passes after entering in the second half and helped Julen Lobete score a late winner at home. As a primarily defensive player with only 11 tackles made in nine league appearances, his value isn't the highest at the moment unless his production continues to increase.

Aihen Munoz - Sent off in win Munoz was sent off after conceding two yellow cards during Saturday's 1-0 win over Mallorca.
Impact Munoz will miss at least one match after his dismissal. He had started every match of the season so far, so this will result in some change to the lineup, though who could take his place isn't as obvious without multiple options due to injury.

Mikel Oyarzabal - Out Saturday Oyarzabal (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's clash with Mallorca, according to manager Imanol Alguacil.
Impact Oyarzabal will be out for Saturday's clash, an absolute shock, and a hammer-blow for Sociedad who lose their star forward. Oyarzabal was on fire over the international break and has been stellar all year, with six goals in the first eight matches. Portu figures to make a spot-start in his place, but Oyarzabal is the story of the week for Sociedad, his availability could decide the season. His next chance to return is Oct. 24 against Atleti.

David Silva - Returns to squad Silva (calf) is in the initial squad list for Saturday's clash with Mallorca.
Impact Silva is in the initial squad list for Saturday's match, and will travel with the team to Mallorca. The midfielder is getting up there in years, so a start seems unlikely but he could come off the bench to test his calf at game speed. When fit Silva should be a nailed-on starter.
OCTOBER 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Alexander Sorloth - In squad vs. Mallorca Sorloth (hamstring) is in the preliminary squad for Saturday's clash with Mallorca.
Impact Sorloth is back in the preliminary squad and could play Saturday against Mallorca. With both Sorloth and Alexander Isak in the squad list there should be decent competition up front, and Sorloth would likely play, though possibly off the bench.
OCTOBER 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Illarramendi - Out Saturday Illarramendi (thigh) will be out for Saturday's clash with Mallorca, after failing to make the initial squad list.
Impact Illarramendi will miss Saturday's clash after missing out on the preliminary squad. The midfielder has lost a better part of three season with various injuries and has fallen out of the starting XI.
OCTOBER 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Jon Guridi - Out against Mallorca Guridi (quadriceps) is out for Saturday's clash with Mallorca, after failing to make the initial squad.
Impact Guridi will not play in Saturday's game, despite the hope that he would be fit after the international break. The midfielder wasn't a fixture in the starting XI, so this won't change much, but is still a hit to an already taxed bench.

Alejandro Remiro - Concedes one in draw Remiro conceded one goal and made one save during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Getafe.
Impact Remiro has conceded just one goal over his last three league starts, but he's recorded victories in just one of his last four appearances. With any luck, he'll be able to change that against Mallorca, which have scored just seven goals in eight games.
OCTOBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Andoni Gorosabel - Provides assist in draw Gorosabel provided one assist from two chances created and conceded a yellow card during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Getafe.
Impact Gorosabel has started every league match but one this season and heads into the international break with his first assist. He's only set up two goals over the last two seasons, so it's not a certainty his attacking actions will become an important contribution just yet. Up next is a visit from Mallorca, which have scored seven goals in eight games this season.
OCTOBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Mikel Oyarzabal - Scores in win Oyarzabal scored one goal from one shot and created three chances from seven crosses during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Getafe.
Impact Oyarzabal enters the international window with two goals and one assist over his last four matches. Should he keep up his form with the national team, Oyarzabal is an exceptionally capable player worth considering as long as he's the focal point of the attack. Up next is a visit from Mallorca, which have conceded 12 goals in eight games this season.
OCTOBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Alexander Isak - Comes off bench in draw Isak put one shot on target in 34 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Getafe.
Impact Isak had missed the previous three matches with a leg injury before getting his chance to return ahead of the international window. Should he full recover his fitness over the next couple of weeks, it shouldn't be surprising to see Isak in the lineup as a starter in the next match against Mallorca.
