Yunus Musah - Starting versus Villarreal Musah (leg) will be in the starting XI against Villarreal on Tuesday.

Impact Musah has started all nine of his previous appearances, though he was an unused substitute twice over that stretch. In those contests, the midfielder recorded one goal on three shots (one on target), 13 crosses (three accurate) and 13 tackles (eight won). If he can maintain his place on the pitch, Musah should be capable of offering solid mid-range fantasy value.

Goncalo Guedes - Suffers neck injury against Osasuna Guedes took two shots and created a chance in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Osasuna, and he injured his neck in the match.

Impact Guedes will be a doubt for Tuesday's clash against Villarreal -- although he did train with Valencia on Monday -- in an effort to ensure he's fit for next weekend's Copa del Rey Final against Real Betis. Hugo Duro would likely replace him up front for the league games.

Impact Musah has started nine of Valencia's 12 La Liga games in 2022, so he will hope this injury is minor and doesn't disrupt the momentum he is enjoying in the squad. Uros Racic replaced him in midfield on Monday, and could do so again versus Osasuna next weekend if necessary.
