As mentioned in our last report of last year, Lucas Hernández (Atlético), Diéguez (Alavés), Aday (Girona), and Cabaco (Levante) all miss the start of the season after picking up one match bans in the final round of games. An unusually quiet start though, maybe because of the new VAR system, and in fact there were no red cards at all, either in the ten league games or the Spanish Sup Cup, played this year in Morocco between Barcelona and Sevilla.
