Real Madrid's Mateo Kovacic: On bench for Copa del Rey match

Kovacic returned from his ankle injury and made the bench for Thursday's Copa del Rey match against Sevilla.

Analysis:

Kovacic had a string of eight starts before injuring his ankle in December. While he could be given the start in Sunday's league match against Sevilla, his fantasy value is limited in his role. Kovacic has two shots on goal and 10 chances created in 11 starts.
