The 'Blanquiverde' team will begin their preparations this Tuesday for Saturday's game, hoping to recover several key players. Meanwhile, the Asturian side will face the challenge with a significant absence, as their midfielder cannot participate due to an accumulation of yellow cards.

The player's importance to Sporting de Gijón is undeniable; he has been a fundamental part of the team's strategy throughout the season. He has participated in 34 league matches, starting in 33 of them, and has only missed two games, both due to suspension. The yellow card that led to his suspension was received in his team's recent victory against Cádiz.

Despite this absence, Sporting de Gijón can consider it positive to have lost only one player, given that several of their offensive mainstays, including a forward with 16 goals and another with 12 goals, as well as several defenders, are also on the verge of suspension.

In contrast to Sporting's situation, Córdoba CF might see the return of a Granada-born midfielder, who has completed his suspension and is expected to rejoin training this week. The player took advantage of a muscle discomfort to force a yellow card, ensuring he would be 'clean' for the final stretch of the season.

Córdoba CF's training sessions will take place at the Ciudad Deportiva, with sessions scheduled for Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Thursday will be a rest day. It is worth noting that El Arcángel will be occupied on Saturday by an Spain-Ukraine U-17 match.
