Clears suspension
El Hilali is no longer banned and could resume club play immediately after the international break.
Analysis: El Hilali will be expected to regain a starting spot on the right flank of a back four following Jose Angel Lopez's unimpressive performance in his place during Friday's loss to Elche. Prior to the ban, the Moroccan was coming off delivering his first assist of the campaign, and he had started all six La Liga games so far. He could be relied on for both crosses and defensive numbers whenever he's back on the pitch, although his team may continue to struggle to secure clean sheets.
Earns red card Tuesday
El Hilali received a straight red card in stoppage time of Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Rayo Vallecano.
Analysis: El Hilali got sent off for a handball during the final minutes of an otherwise successful performance, with the defender delivering several crosses and winning most of his duels. He'll be suspended for the upcoming matchup versus Elche, and the lengthy international break means he won't be eligible for official club play until Oct. 9 against Malaga. He had just produced his first assist of the season in his previous start. With his positional rival Andoni Gorosabel (groin) struggling to regain fitness, Unai Nunez may be deployed at right-back while the Moroccan serves his ban.
