Javi Sanchez - Starting vs. Alaves Sanchez (thigh) is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Alaves.

Impact Sanchez was deemed healthy earlier in the week, so it's not surprising to see him return to the XI right away. He's started in his previous three appearances this season, racking up 13 clearances, two tackles and two interceptions.

Javi Sanchez - Set for return Sanchez (thigh) is an option for Friday's match against Alaves, according to manager Paulo Pezzolano. "Javi is already recovered, so nothing, we'll see if he's starting, if he's on...

Impact Sanchez looks to be set for a return after missing the club's past five games due to a groin issue, as he has been deemed fit to face Alaves. This is a solid addition back for the club, as he did start in three of their first four matches to open the season before his injury. That said, he will look to earn the start Friday, although David Torres and Abdulai Juma Bah could see another start in the center of the defense is Sanchez is not 100 percent.

Karl Hein - Gives up two goals Saturday Hein made one save and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Rayo Vallecano.

Impact There's not much Hein could've done in the two goals he conceded in this match. The first one was a one-on-one sequence, and the latter was a shot that bounced off the post and fell straight to Jorge De Frutos. Hein has proven to be a starter-level goalkeeper in LaLiga, but Valladolid's defensive woes certainly conspire against him and his fantasy upside.

Raul Moro - Sets up goal Saturday Moro assisted once to go with seven crosses (three accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Moro came into the game at halftime and wreaked havoc on the opposing defense with his runs on the left wing. Ultimately, one of those runs ended in a low cross that was tapped home by Selim Amallah. Moro has started in just five of his nine appearances this season, but he's already up to two goals and one assist in the campaign.

Selim Amallah - Scores lone goal in defeat Amallah scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Amallah found the back of the net in this one, though to be fair, most of the credit in the goal should go to Raul Moro's impressive run on the left wing. Amallah simply had to tap the ball home from close range. The former Valencia midfielder is up to one goal and one assist across seven appearances (six starts) this season.

OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Lucas Rosa - Suspended by yellow cards Rosa will be suspended for the Oct. 18 match against Alaves after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season in the 2-1 loss to Rayo Vallecano on Saturday.

Impact The defender has been a regular on the left side of the defense for Valladolid and has played every minute of the season thus far, so there's no question his presence will be missed. There will be some shuffling at the back with Rosa sidelined for the Oct. 18 match against Alaves, but he should be expected back in the XI to face Villarreal on Oct. 26.

OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Luis Perez - Ready to go Perez (knock) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash with Rayo.

Impact Perez came off with a knock against Mallorca, but is now back fit and straight into the starting XI. The defender is a big part of the first team and has gone the full 90 in every single match he's stayed fit for. He should be in for a major role once more Saturday.

OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Selim Amallah - Starting against Rayo Amallah (knock) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash with Rayo.

Impact Amallah was expected to return for Saturday's clash, and he's back just as expected. The midfielder should be a key part of the starting XI when fit, and should be in for large role if possible. Kike Perez falls to the bench with Amallah back.

OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Selim Amallah - Expected to be ready Amallah (undisclosed) "has been training with the group for a week" ahead of Saturday's match against Rayo Vallecano, per manager Pauli Pezzolano.

Impact Amallah will look to make his return to the squad after missing the last two matches with an undisclosed injury. He will also look to be an option to start in the midfield, having started the previous four games, assisting once with five tackles and four interceptions in that span.

Luis Perez - Involved in some work Perez was forced off in the 51st minute of Friday's loss to Mallorca and was able to return to some parts of training ahead of Saturday's trip to Rayo Vallecano, according to manag...

Impact Perez only played up to 51 minutes for the first time this season following a minor injury against Mallorca. He will aim to keep his starting role for Saturday if fit, having recorded 34 crosses (10 accurate), 16 clearances and 15 tackles in eight appearances, all of them coming as starts.

OCTOBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Javi Sanchez - Still needs few more weeks Sanchez (thigh) "still needs a couple of week" before returning to the pitch, according to manager Paulo Pezzolano.

Impact Sanchez is set to miss most of October as he continues to deal with a thigh injury. He's already missed the last four matches, making three starts prior to his injury, totaling two tackles (two won), two interceptions and 13 clearances with three blocks.

Selim Amallah - Not playing Friday Amallah (undisclosed) is out for Friday's game against Mallorca.

Impact Amallah was initially listed as questionable by manager Paulo Pezzolano, but in the end, he didn't even make the bench. This will be his second straight absence, and it remains to be seen if he'll recover in time to face Rayo Vallecano on Oct. 5 before the international break.

SEPTEMBER 27 • ROTOWIRE

Selim Amallah - Questionable due to injury Amallah is questionable for Friday's match against Mallorca, according to manager Paulo Pezzolano. "Selim had a discomfort and the best thing was that he did not travel. Yesterday...

Impact Amallah sat out the club's last match due to discomfort but could be back with the team this week. He trained Thursday, with a fitness test likely deciding his availability ahead of the match. He had started in four matches before his injury, so the club will hope he is an option, although he will likely serve off the bench to test his legs before a full return if available Friday.

Cesar De La Hoz - Set for longer recovery period De la Hoz is expected to miss a few weeks due to a back issue, according to manager Paulo Pezzolano. "He has a lumbar issue that comes from behind. [We] are looking for a longer re...

Impact De la Hoz looks to be heading to the sidelines for a decent period, at least not returning until after the international break due to his issues. This is a tough break for the midfielder, as he is yet to make his season debut. That said, he will look for a return near the end of October, hoping to face no setbacks during recovery.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Kike Perez - Scores in loss Kike Perez scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Tuesday's 2-1 loss versus Sevilla.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Karl Hein - Concedes twice in defeat Hein recorded four saves and allowed two goals in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Sevilla.

Impact Hein was beaten twice against Sevilla, once in each half. The goalkeeper was unfortunate with the first goal as it was a defender who accidentally sent it towards his own net. He's struggled recently, allowing 12 goals over the past four games. Next, he'll face off against Mallorca, a team with six goals in seven games.
