Completes suspension
Cabrera is no longer banned and could be selected in the Sept. 6 match against Sevilla.
Analysis: Cabrera missed the previous two contests due to a pending suspension, with Unai Nunez and Vanja Drkusic featuring at center-back during the most recent meeting with Real Sociedad. Now that the Uruguayan is eligible, he'll be a strong candidate to take Drkusic's spot for the remainder of the season. In that case, Cabrera may be relied on for his 2025/26 averages of 5.9 clearances, 2.3 balls recovered and 1.0 tackles per game.
Ruled out with pending suspension
Cabrera was withdrawn from Espanyol's squad shortly before Sunday's season opener against Levante after being ordered to serve a pending suspension from the 2024-25 season.
Analysis: Cabrera was sent off against Barcelona in May 2025 for an altercation with Lamine Yamal and was given a four match ban, but he served only one match before Spain's Sports Administrative Tribunal granted a stay on the remaining three, allowing him to play the entire 2025-26 season under that provisional measure. That stay was lifted this weekend, and Cabrera must now serve his remaining three matches immediately, ruling him out of matches against Real Madrid and Real Sociedad. Cabrera is expected to be available again for the visit of Sevilla on September 6 once his suspension is complete. Unai Nunez and Clemens Riedel stepped in as the starting central defensive pairing against Levante as a result of his unexpected absence.
