Martín Satriano
GETStarting Sunday
Satriano (knee) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Oviedo.
Analysis: Satriano is returning Sunday as expected after a slight knee injury, with the forward not just fit but finding the starting XI immediately. This continues a trend he should keep until the end of the season, having yet to miss a start in his 16 appearances since joining the club, recording four goals and one assist during that span.
Likely against Real Oviedo
Satriano (knee) is back in team training and is likely to be back available for Sunday's clash against Real Oviedo, according to coach Jose Bordalas. "Martin is already training with the team. Tomorrow is the last session left and we trust in having him available for Sunday."
Analysis: Satriano had been confirmed with a left knee contusion after medical tests earlier in the week, but his rapid return to near-full training is an encouraging sign heading into a crucial European qualification fixture. The club will make a final call after Saturday's session before confirming his involvement, with manager Bordalas clearly optimistic about having one of his most important attacking contributors available for what is a pivotal clash in Getafe's push for a European spot.
Suffers knee contusion
Satriano was confirmed with a contusion in his left knee after undergoing medical tests, with his availability for Sunday's clash against Real Oviedo dependent on the evolution of the injury, according to the club.
Analysis: Satriano has been one of Getafe's most important attacking contributors in the second half of the season and his potential absence would be a real blow for coach Jose Bordalas heading into a crucial European qualification fixture. The club will monitor his condition closely over the coming days before making a final call on his involvement Sunday, with Adrian Liso expected to take on a larger role in the front line if Satriano cannot be cleared in time.
Active in loss
Satriano generated four shots (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 2-0 defeat to Rayo Vallecano.
Analysis: Satriano failed to find the net from several attempts against Rayo, with his four shots matching his highest total since joining Getafe in January. He has recently formed a two-man front line with Luis Vazquez, but both forwards have struggled to score under such scheme. After tallying four goals and one assist over a seven-game stretch between February and April, Satriano is now on a four-game drought in terms of direct contributions.
