Rayo-Albacete has become the endless game, started on December 15 and will end on June 10. Almost six months in which many things have happened in Vallecas, to the point that Paco Jémez will have to put the eleven back in line that day. That team consisted of Dimitrievski; Advíncula, Catena, Milic, Tito; Óscar Valentín; Andrés, Trejo, Pozo, Embarba; Piovaccari. Two of those players —Embarba and Piovaccari— left the franjirrojo club in the winter market, so the coach will be forced to make several changes. In fact, a few are coming …
The problem is that Paco can only count on the footballers registered at that time. In other words, the January reinforcements (De Frutos, Isi, Yacine Qasmi and Juan Villar) will not play. That, together with the seriously injured (Alberto, Baby and Ulloa), leaves the ray attack especially impaired. The coach has only one end available for that appointment: Álvaro García. So it could keep Andrés Martín out of control, a solution that Paco already had to use in December due to the deficit in said demarcation. This decision would affect the front, since Andrés is the only battering ram available. Another option would be to retake the figure of 'false nine' with Trejo. Without forgetting that the Argentine playmaker has a yellow.
Óscar Valentín was also cautioned in the first round match, so the Vallecano coach could weigh other options in the core like Mario Suárez or the return of Comesaña, already recovered. Another expected return would be that of Pozo. All these options have a more offensive cut to go out to bite an Albacete with ten – Eddy Silvestre was sent off – in the remaining 45 minutes. Another line susceptible to variations is defense. Velázquez has already been discharged and it is an alternative for the rear axle, although a priori it would not start. Who has more ballots to do it, on the left-handed side, is Luna, since it had settled there before the break due to the pandemic.
