Further forward, Iago Aspas is available, though Hugo González remains the expected starter for now, while Javi Rueda is favoured over Núñez on the right. Aleix Febas is likely to continue in the centre after making his first start in five matches against Elche.

Jeremie Boga has returned to group training but was left out of the squad.

In defence, Federico Gatti or Bremer could start alongside either Lloyd Kelly or Jhon Lucumí, while Andrea Cambiaso and Pierre Kalulu are the alternatives at full-back.
