Marcos Acuna - Makes squad list Acuna (strain) made the squad list for Wednesday's match against Borussia Dortmund.
Impact Acuna still needs to make the squad by game time but it's still a good sign he's been cited as available by the club. As a result, it could take until the lineup is released to see whether Acuna or Alex Telles gets the start at left-back for Wednesday's contest.

Fernando - Out against Dortmund Fernando will miss Wednesday's match against Borussia Dortmund due to a fever that he hasn't recovered from, according to Diario de Sevilla.
Impact Fernando didn't make the squad list for the visit from the German team. Look to Ivan Rakitic and Nemanja Gudelj as likely to start in defensive midfield without Fernando available.

Marcos Acuna - Hopeful to play Acuna participated in Tuesday's training session and according to manager Julen Lopetegui, he's hopeful to play in Wednesday's UCL match against Borussia Dortmund.
Impact Acuna missed Saturday's loss to Atletico Madrid and Monday's training so his status still isn't a guarantee. If he's out, Alex Telles should be in line to start at left-back for Wednesday's game.
OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Marcao - Still without permission to play Marcao (hamstring) remains unavailable ahead of Wednesday's match against Borussia Dortmund, according to manager Julen Lopetegui.
Impact Marcao has struggled over the first half of the season and it's unclear if he'll make it back any time soon. Kike Salas and Nemanja Gudelj have been the top center-back pairing while Tanguy Nianzou offers more depth while Marcao is still out.

Marcos Acuna - Misses training Acuna (strain) didn't participate in Monday's training session ahead of Wednesday's match against Borussia Dortmund, according to Basilio Garcia of El Desmarque.
Impact Acuna will hope to get back in time to face the Germans as he's likely to start when fit. If Acuna can't play, Alex Telles is set to start at left-back after Karim Rekik went down with a hamstring injury in Saturday's loss to Atletico Madrid.

Fernando - Misses loss, training session Fernando missed Saturday's 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid and Monday's training session, according to Basilio Garcia of El Desmarque.
Impact Fernando has started in seven of his team's nine games this season and could be in a rush to get back in time for Wednesday's match against Borussia Dortmund. A change in formation could see some pairing of Thomas Delaney, Nemanja Gudelj or Ivan Rakitic anchoring the midfield if Fernando isn't fit.

Karim Rekik - Suffers torn hamstring Rekik suffered a torn right hamstring during Sunday's loss to Atletico Madrid, it was announced Monday.
Impact Rekik has started four times in five appearances this season but he's an injury-prone player and now out with a fresh issue. It's unclear how serious the tear is but it's safe to expect Rekik to miss between two weeks and a month. Going forward, look to Marcos Acuna and Alex Telles as the top options at left-back.

Bono - Concedes two in loss Bono conceded two goals and made four saves during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid.
Impact Bono has recorded just one victory in eight starts to open the season following another defeat in Saturday's game. Even with that losing record, it's usually accompanied by a decent save total but Bono is only tied for seventh in saves made. A busy schedule won't be much help if he and his teammates don't have enough time to practice and work on getting their back line in good order.
OCTOBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ivan Rakitic - Busy off bench Rakitic created five chances on three crosses (two accurate), won three tackles and made three interceptions during the second half of Saturday's 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid.
Impact Rakitic put in one of his best performances of the season so far and did so as a substitute against a team now in good defensive confidence. While Rakitic is unlikely to be a lock to start in each game due to his age, one can expect him to be confident ahead of a busy month following a good showing.
OCTOBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Thomas Delaney - Plays first half in loss Delaney conceded a yellow card while playing for the first half of Saturday's 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid.
Impact Delaney didn't last too long into the match as Ivan Rakitic replaced him at halftime. Neither offers substantial value when both continue to alternate appearances but at least Rakitic created five chances during Saturday's game. A busy month will offer more chances for Delaney to start but keep in mind that he's created two chances in six appearances this season.
OCTOBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kasper Dolberg - Takes two shots in loss Dolberg took two shots (one on goal) during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid.
Impact Dolberg was handed his first start at striker and it came at a bad time with Atleti returning their best defensive lineup. Getting Dolberg in the team didn't stop his team from continuing their slide (one win since September) and things could only get worse during a busy month of fixtures before the World Cup.
OCTOBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Karim Rekik - Leaves early in loss Rekik was replaced by Alex Telles after 28 minutes of Saturday's 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid.
Impact It's not a good sign to exit so soon in Rekik's first start since Aug. 27 but that's what has happened ahead of a busy month. Pending his status for Wednesday's match against Borussia Dortmund, Alex Telles or Marcos Acuna would make the starting lineup in the place of Rekik.

Marcos Acuna - Dealing with knock Acuna has picked up a knock and will be a late call for Saturday's match against Atletico Madrid, according to manager Julen Lopetegui.
Impact Acuna apparently picked up an issue before the international break against Villarreal and hasn't overcome it just yet. Were he to miss out on Saturday's game, Alex Telles should take his place in the lineup at left-back.

Marcao - Out Saturday Marcao (hamstring) remains unavailable for Saturday's match against Atletico Madrid, according to manager Julen Lopetegui.
Impact Marcao isn't far from playing but it's unclear when he'll receive permission to play. Youngster Kike Salas and Nemanja Gudelj have been the recent pairing at center-back while Marcao continues in his recovery.
