Will miss Getafe game
Costa will miss the upcoming trip to Getafe after picking up a yellow card in the 71st minute of Sunday's match against Villarreal, reaching the accumulation limit.
Analysis: Costa had been one of Mallorca's most active players against Villarreal, contributing to the press, making runs into the box and attempting several shots on goal before the booking ended his afternoon. His absence is a notable blow for coach Martin Demichelis, who will need to reshuffle the midfield for the Getafe fixture. Antonio Sanchez is expected to be among the candidates to reclaim a starting role in the middle of the park in his absence.
Scores game-winning goal
Costa scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Friday's 1-0 win versus Girona.
Analysis: Costa is known for his tenacity and ball-winning ability in midfield, but the Portuguese appeared all alone near the six-yard box and drilled a powerful header into the back of the net after a cross from Johan Mojica. Despite having a defensive-minded role, this has been a career-best year for Costa. He has seven goals in league play, and has recorded five goal contributions (three goals, two assists) over his last seven contests.
