Impact Summary

Real Madrid’s attack, led by Kylian Mbappé (24 goals, 4 assists) and Vinícius Júnior (15 goals, 5 assists), remains available despite doubts over Mbappé. Oviedo’s attacking output is already limited, and suspensions to J. Lopez and K. Sibo further weaken their structure rather than pure goal threat.
