On bench against Porto Roberto (calf) is on the bench for Tuesday's clash with Porto.

Impact Roberto is finally back with the team after a seven-match absence, earning a bench role in his return. The defender has only started in two matches this season, so he shouldn't be expected to gain much time after reaching full fitness, only holding more of a rotational role as he gets late minutes off the bench.

Returns to training Roberto (calf) was back training with the team ahead of Tuesday's match against Porto.

Impact Roberto could be an option for Tuesday's match after returning to the training pitch on Monday, but he will most likely only be on the bench if he does make the team sheet. If he does play, it would end a seven-match absence, as he has yet to compete since early October. If he does not return for Tuesday's match, expect him to return Sunday against Atletico Madrid.

Not playing Saturday Sergi Roberto (calf) is not in the squad for Saturday's match at Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Roberto hasn't played since early October, and there's clarity on when he might return to action.

His next chance to play will come in the UEFA Champions League against Porto next Tuesday.

Sidelined against Sociedad Roberto (calf) is not on the squad list for Saturday's match against Sociedad.

Impact Roberto will be missing his fourth straight match as he continues to recover from a calf injury. The defender still has no timetable for his return after the club announced him as "out indefinitely," so it is hard to tell when to expect him back, but it will most likely be after the international break. He could slip into the squad before then with two matches remaining until the break but would be much better off getting his extra week of rest to work on his recovery.

Impact Roberto latched onto Alex Balde's low cross to score his first of the season. He has found playing time hard to come by so far, managing six appearances, only two of which have been starts. The academy graduate is unlikely to start consistently, but his versatility should see him get ample playing time as the season goes on.
