Central doubt Victor Ruiz, discomfort in the knee is added the striker Roberto Soldado, by back problems, and.
The good news for Marcelino García Toral is that it can count on players like Bruno Soriano or Antonio Rukavina, returning from suspension. With all this, you can align an eleven made up of a mix of regulars and coming players playing less.
