Douvikas misses the Cup match due to illness. ~ Celta de Vigo Moi Celeste

Jailson is one of the great novelties in Celta’s squad for the Cup match. The Brazilian, now recovered from his injury, enters a list made up of 23 players, among which is also the Fortuna player Yoel Lago, who has trained all week with the team.

The casualties for this match are the already known Ristic, who misses the match due to injury, as well as Manquillo, who is not on the list despite being medically cleared. Claudio Giráldez commented in the pre-match press conference that “it’s still not good. Tasos Douvikas also misses the match, in this case due to illness: “He has been feverish all week due to tonsillitis, with a high feverish process due to which he has not trained for the last three days,” Giráldez clarified. In addition, Allende, De la Torre and Aidoo, for whom the club is looking for a way out in this market, miss the game due to a technical decision.

Otherwise it is a call very similar to that of a League match, which makes it clear that Celta is going for this tie. In that sense, Claudio Giráldez pointed out in the pre-match appearance that “we take all the qualifiers seriously. We will look for a competitive eleven to overcome the tie and make it to the next one.”
