Elche has only 20 players to play in Mallorca

The defeat, especially because of how it happened, meant a mental blow for football players who no longer knew what they had to do to win a match.. Coach for the tenth time this season Pablo Machín will have to act as a psychologist and motivator to try to raise the morale of a team that is completely swamped with all the misfortunes accumulating. in this season

Also, franciverde prep The team’s match against Mallorca next Saturday (18:30) at Son Moix stadium is below the minimum.

Objections to expulsions Lisandro Magallán, Enzo Roco and Pape Cheikhmachine there will be only 20 players The first team to play against Palma.

We must join these three absences that are more than possible three injured: Pere Milla, Álex Collado and John Chetauya.

It will take about two months for the Catalan striker to return to the field. After he broke his left collarbone on February 8, which forced him to undergo surgery.

The midfielder and defender on loan from Barcelona has reached the final stage of their recovery. A tear in the adductor muscle in Catalans; and the fibula of the junior team. both they will still have to wait at least two weeks to become available facing a competition match after spending almost three months in dry dock.

several centers

As such, Machín has few troops and will need to rebuild the team, especially on the defensive.

Soriano’s coach could suddenly lose two of his regular line-up defenders in recent games, Magallán and Roco. The Argentine and Chilean, together with Colombian Helibelton Palacios, formed the three center lines that the Elche coach normally used..

Diego González, Pedro Bigas, a Major-born by birth and returning to his country; and Gonzalo Verdu are alternatives Machín will need to form the axis of the rear.

Diego González became the fourth center player in the squad, and Bigas, who curiously started the season as an important player, has lost its importance in the last matches.. Captain Gonzalo Verdú is barely playing.

The two of them have plenty of chances to be in the top five at Son Moix.

Carmona and Nteka are back

Another alternative is to place Carmona in the middle of the defense.. The player, taken on loan from Sevilla, will return after serving his sentence against Betis. He played in the center several times for Sevilla, but Machín has always used him as a right winger..

Randy Nteka will be back too. The French striker, on loan from Rayo Vallecano, was relegated in the last minute of the call against Béticos as he was not in good physical shape after suffering muscle and injuries. having had gastroenteritis last week left him very weak and had very limited conditions to play..
