Roberto Soldado injured

Roberto Soldado is injured and won't be in the squad to face Real Madrid in the cup. He got his injury in the last match against Real Madrid and has a bruise and muscle tear, not very serious, but he will be rested just as a precaution. He should be available for the next La Liga match though against Deportive La Coruna.

Another bad news is that David Albelda won't be in the squad to face Real Madrid either, as he still hasn't fully recovered from his injury and would need one more week of recovery.
