Real Valladolid is set to welcome back their key forward Mamadou Sylla to the squad after he completed his domestic suspension in the previous match.

David Torres, Javi Sanchez, and Kenedy are questionable for selection, but the home team avoided any new injuries in their close loss to Mallorca.

Head coach Rubio likely drew several positives from that game, so it's possible that the league's bottom team will field an unchanged lineup against Girona, except for Sylla's return in the forward line.

For the visitors, Miguel Gutierrez, who has been rumored for a move back to Real Madrid, is still doubtful due to an ankle injury. Gabriel Misehouy and Donny van de Beek might also be absent again.

Ricard Artero and Bryan Gil will definitely not be available, but Girona didn't sustain any new issues in their encounter with Villarreal last time.

The Catalan outfit might make just one alteration from the team that started against the Yellow Submarine, potentially bringing in Yaser Asprilla to enhance their attacking options.

Possible starting lineup for Real Valladolid:

Ferreira; Perez, Candela, Ozkacar, Aznou; Chuky, Nikitscher, Comert, Amallah, Moro; Sylla

Possible starting lineup for Girona:

Gazzaniga; A Martinez, D Lopez, Krejci, Blind; Martin, Arthur, Herrera; Asprilla, Stuani, Portu
