Nobel Mendy
Makes 16 clearances in victory
Mendy had four tackles (three won), 16 clearances and one interception in Sunday's 2-0 win versus Getafe. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 85th minute.
Analysis: Mendy was extremely busy in defensive play while winning six of his 13 individual duels throughout the match. The 16 clearances established a season-high tally and increased his average to 6.6 per game, which is the best figure among Rayo players and fifth in the league. He'll aim to stay impactful in upcoming clashes, offering high defensive potential as part of a center-back pairing alongside Florian Lejeune.
Suspension served
Mendy has cleared his league suspension in Thursday's win over Espanyol and could play again in upcoming contests.
Analysis: Mendy will aim to get opportunities in the competition with Jozhua Vertrouwd, who took his place in the initial lineup during the midweek match. The Real Betis loanee is a strong source of passes and defensive stats when on the field, but he has struggled with disciplinary issues throughout the season.
