Sandoval finds reinforcements

Roberto Canella and Nacho Cases have both returned to training for Sporting Gijon, albeit partially. The left-back pulled his hamstring during the Liga Adelante match against RCD Mallorca but could be back in time to take on SD Eibar this Saturday in El Molinon. The centre-back has also returned to training in Mareo after picking up a knock to his knee (for the second time this season), and is now back to working with a ball. The third uncertainty ahead of the weekend is Stefan Šćepović. The Serbian forward injured his Achilles tendon during the side’s match against Deportivo Alaves.
