Tanguy Nianzou - Comes off injured Nianzou (undisclosed) was forced off with an injury during Tuesday's clash with Valencia.

Impact Nianzou was forced off with an injury in the second half of Tuesday's match. The defender was replaced by Kike Salas, who could see more playing time alongside Marcao if the injury proves to be serious. Nianzou's first chance to return is a Saturday trip to Real Madrid, the short turn makes Nianzou a doubt at best.

Impact Navas had to come out of Saturday's victory over Mallorca at halftime after suffering a leg injury, but he is fit enough to make the squad on Tuesday and could see some playing time off the bench. Gonzalo Montiel starts at right-back in his absence.

Fernando - Out Tuesday Fernando didn't make the squad list for Tuesday's match against Valencia due to discomfort, according to manager Jorge Sampaoli via Diario de Sevilla.

Impact Fernando appears to be past a case of mononucleosis but a lack of fitness is still apparent following little time spent in training. There's likely to be some rotation in the midfield four days after the last match against Mallorca, giving Thomas Delaney and Joan Jordan some prospects of playing alongside Nemanja Gudelj until Fernando is fully healthy.

Jesus Navas - Makes squad list Navas (leg) made the squad list for Tuesday's match against Valencia.

Impact Navas had left after halftime of Saturday's win over Mallorca due to injury but appears to be fit enough to play. Should he not be picked to start even with medical clearance, either Gonzalo Montiel or Jose Angel Carmona would take the place of Navas on the right flank.

Alex Telles - Sends in five crosses Telles had five crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 1-0 win over Mallorca.

Impact Telles is a menace from the left side of the field by launching balls into the middle of the field for Sevilla. He now averages 4.3 crosses a match to bring his total to 43 crosses in all competitions thus far. The Brazilian would like to be added to the scoresheet more often but has been playing considerably well none the less with an assist, 25 crosses (five accurate), nine corners, five interceptions and five clearances in the last five matches.

Isco - Assists game-winner Isco assisted once to go with two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-0 win against Mallorca.

Impact Isco found Nemanja Gudelj in the midfield to grant him his second assist on the season. He has finally been able to get more minutes with Sevilla with already nine starts in 12 appearances. The Spaniard began the season slow but is finally beginning to pick it up with two assists, eight chances created, six interceptions and five tackles (two won) in the last six matches.

Nemanja Gudelj - First goal of career Gudelj scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Mallorca.

Impact It was a special day for Gudelj as he scored a beautiful goal for his first in his career with Sevilla. It was out of the ordinary for the Serbian to have a chance in front of the net with just eight shots (one on target) all season. He usually denies plays from the opposing team to begin counterattacks. The 30-year-old has a total of 10 clearances, seven blocks and six tackles (four won) in the last five matches.

Bono - First clean sheet of season Bono made four saves in Saturday's 1-0 win against Mallorca.

Impact Bono was exceptional on Saturday to get his first clean sheet of the season. He has 32 saves thus far which brings his averages saves per game to 3. The Moroccan goalkeeper struggled of late, conceding too many goals a contest with seven matches of two or more goals allowed. He has also conceded seven in the last five matches. Don't be surprised if the 31-year-old allows multiple goals in the next match against Valencia on Tuesday, who have scored 15 goals in the last six matches.

Marcao - Starting against Mallorca Marcao is fit and in the starting XI to face Mallorca on Saturday.

Impact Marcao returns after dealing with a muscle strain in the buildup to the match. The centerback has made just one start on the season but should be a fixture in the heart of defense moving forward.

Fernando - Expected to train Sunday Fernando (illness) is expected to train Sunday as he overcomes an illness, according to manager Jorge Sampaoli. He's already ruled out of Saturday's trip to Mallorca after not maki...

Impact Fernando was knocked out by a rumored case of mononucleosis, which can be extremely draining even to those in good shape. Should he return Sunday, Fernando can help close out a busy October after missing the first five games of the month. As a defensive-midfielder, Fernando doesn't hold tremendous fantasy value despite starting in all seven of his appearances.

Marcao - Makes squad list Marcao made the squad list for Saturday's trip to Mallorca.

Impact Marcao looks to be fine after taking a heavy challenge in Tuesday's draw with Borussia Dortmund. Unless it's shown he's not as healthy as it appears, then expect Marcao to start alongside Tanguy Nianzou for a third straight game.

Marcao - Returns to training Marcao (strain) returned to training Thursday ahead of Saturday's trip to Mallorca, according to Diario de Sevilla.

Impact Marcao had to leave late into Tuesday's UCL draw with Borussia Dortmund but it appears he's avoided more serious injury. Whether he's able to start Saturday or not, the defense looks far more solid when Marcao is in the lineup, conceding just two goals in the last two games and either Nemanja Gudelj or Kike Salas could be called into the starting lineup.

Impact Lamela returned to the lineup after coming off the bench in the previous two games. Going forward, Lamela and Isco will be in competition for minutes as long as Oliver Torres continues to start as the central attacking-midfielder in league contests.
