Giusuppe Rossi is suspended this weekend so, after some impressive substitute performances and some successful outings in the Europa League, 24-year-old striker Marco Ruben is expected to replace the pint-sized Italio-American up front alongside Nilmar against Getafe at the Coliseum on Saturday night. The Argentine forward will struggle to break into the first team at the Madrigal as long as Nilmar and Rossi are around but he is a tricky, energetic player who could quickly explode to prominence if provided with a window of opportunity. That nearly came earlier in the year when Wigan agreed a fee in principle to sign the player but the deal fell through so he continues to warm the bench under Juan Carlos Garrido in his first full season with the Villarreal first team squad. Ruben is yet to score in La Liga but he should have plenty of opportunities if he plays this weekend with the likes of Borja Valero, Ruben Cani and Santi Cazorla providing him with ammunition.
