Makes squad for Saturday Rodri (strain) is in the squad to face Real Madrid on Saturday.

Impact Rodri was expected to be out until mid-December at the earliest, but he recovered slightly quicker than anyone could have imagined, and he could be an option to face Real Madrid. That said, he's likely to remain as a bench alternative with limited fantasy upside. He's yet to register a goal or an assist in 14 appearances (six starts) between La Liga and the UEFA Europa League.

Impact Rodri crossed for Guido Rodriguez to head home and now has three assists for the season, a career high. It was the second game running in which he came off the bench to register an assist.

Records assist Rodri assisted once to go with one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-1 win against Espanyol.

Impact Rodri logged the assist to Betis' third goal, which William Carvalho scored. Rodri's contribution was his first since he suffered an undisclosed injury that forced him to sit out twice during the second half of February. The assist also ended a small contribution drought Rodri suffered from March 5 to April 9, which could ultimately explain why he was a substitute Saturday. However, that should not be a problem moving forward.
