García Plaza is left without Nianzou and Carmona and looks with concern at Vargas

The next league match against Atlético de Madrid already has two marked absences for Sevilla. Waiting for official confirmation from Competición, García Plaza will not be able to count on Nianzou nor José Ángel Carmona.

The absence of the center-back comes after his sending off before halftime in Oviedo: he received a straight red for miscontrolling the ball and fouling, as the last man, Fede Viñas, an action that led Hernández Hernández to immediately show him the card. In Carmona’s case, the full-back received his fifth yellow and will serve a suspension in the next matchday, forcing the coach to reorganize his defense.

In that scenario, the coach remains pending on whether he manages to recover Azpilicueta. If he does not arrive in time, the alternatives are to drop back Gudelj or call upon Castrín, who saw minutes against Oviedo, or Fábio Cardoso.

Beyond the suspensions, the defeat against the bottom team left an image of great concern in Nervión: Rubén Vargas had to leave the field in the final stretch with clear signs of pain. The Swiss has already missed 15 matches this season and returned after his second injury on March 15, against Barcelona. Vargas will undergo tests to find out if it is a serious problem or if it turns out to be a scare.
