Sevilla duo Diego Perotti and Frederic Kanoute are doubtful for the weekend trip to face Real Madrid after sustaining injuries during the 2-2 draw with Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday evening.
Los Nervionenses got the point they needed to progress to the knockout stages at the Germans' expense, but their exertions appear to have come at a cost.
Kanoute, who headed the Andalucians 2-1 in front just before the interval, had to be replaced minutes later, and he is regarded as extremely unlikely to be available for the match in the capital.
Argentine Perotti meanwhile suffered from a tight hamstring in the second half, and had to be replaced by defender Martin Caceres on the hour mark.
While Kanoute may still have a chance of competing against Los Blancos, the young winger however has been ruled out until after the winter break.

Carlo Ancelotti will wave arrivederci to Chelsea and join Roma in June as he prepares to clear his desk at Stamford Bridge early, according to a report from Italy.
Impero Romanista claims Ancelotti may arrive in June to replace Claudio Ranieri. The current Roma boss has not renewed his deal in the capital.
Varying results, coupled with the uncertainty over the club's future, have put any talk of an extension into the background.
Ancelotti meanwhile has seen his relationship with Chelsea thrown into doubt.
The Blues boss seems to have lost his grip on the way of life in the Premier League, and he has made a pact with Roma director Bruno Conti to join them under the instruction of current president Rosella Sensi.
Ancelotti's Roma ties make him a favourite among fans and chiefs at the club, especially if Ranieri fail to deliver meaningful results this season.
Despite the exit claims, Ancelotti said Blues owner Roman Abramovich ensured his job was secure.

Frank Lampard lets Didier Drogba take penalty against Tottenham Spurs to no avail

Frank Lampard lets Didier Drogba take penalty against Tottenham Spurs to no avail
Chelsea midfielder, Frank Lampard, revealed that he did not want to claim glory for a Chelsea win, when he made a surprise return for the Blues against Tottenham at White Hart Lane, and had a chance to take the injury time penalty.
Frank Lampard is the Blues' regular penalty taker but on Sunday it was striker Didier Drogba, who stepped up to take the kick from the penalty spot and then missed it. Lampard stepped aside to let Drogba take the spot kick because he did not want to take credit for the win.
Drogba's penalty, if it had hit the back of the net, would have given Chelsea a win after a particularly bad few weeks. However, it was Lampard's first match after his return from injury, after three months and the England international chose to let Drogba take it.
The return against Spurs was a surprise, before the match Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti had claimed that Lampard was not match fit and would most probably not make an appearance. Lampard started on the bench but was brought on towards the end of second half, to help make a difference.
However, Lampard seems to have returned to full fitness and is set to start against Manchester United this Sunday. The Blues will welcome United at Stamford Bridge this weekend in a very important clash, which will determine if they are still title contenders.
So far Lampard has had a terrible season, being injured for the better part of it. Having returned, he was hopeful it was more permanent. He said, "It's a difficult one, but it looked like I would not be playing two days earlier. Then I played after only training for two days with the lads, in three months. I haven't practiced a penalty in all that time and I always like to practice them. I thought it would have been wrong for me to come on and try to take personal glory on my return, rather than let Didi take it, because he has been practicing".
He added, "So I gave it to Didi. I could easily say I would have buried it, but that is not always the case. We can all miss them – and credit to Didi for stepping up. Hopefully now I can practice some in the week and get back to taking them".

Everton to spend Pienaar fee on Miller
10:30 AM 16 December, 2010
Everton Football Club are lining up an offer for Kenny Miller.
David Moyes admits he is keen to sign a striker when the transfer window reopens, and he is prepared to sell Steven Pienaar to raise the cash.
The South African international is out of contract in the summer, but Tottenham Hotspur are known to be willing to pay for the midfielder in January.
It is believed Moyes would then make a move for Miller, who is in a similar contract situation at Rangers, for a fee in the region of £2million.
The 30-year-old has been in sensational form for the Scottish giants this season, having found the back of the net 19 times in 14 league appearances.

Liverpool seek Adebayor loan capture
12:00 PM 16 December, 2010
Liverpool Football Club hope to capture Emmanuel Adebayor in the New Year.
The former Arsenal star has struggled for regular first team football at Manchester City this season, having started just two Premier League games thus far.
Roberto Mancini is in the market for a new striker in January, and if he lands a target, he would likely be willing to let the Togo international leave.
According to The Metro, this is of great interest to Roy Hodgson, who hopes to lure Adebayor to Anfield on loan for the rest of the campaign.
However, much may depend on whether the Blues lose Carlos Tevez, who has submitted a written transfer request to quit Eastlands in the New Year.

Spaniards close on Manchester City flop
10:00 PM 15 December, 2010
Levante are closing on a permanent deal for Felipe Caicedo.
The Ecuadorian striker is currently on loan at the Spanish club, after he failed to settle in England following his arrival at Eastlands during the Sven Goran Eriksson era.
It is already thought that an agreement in the region of £850,000 has been agreed between the two clubs to make the deal for the 22-year-old permanent.
The La Liga side now want to rubberstamp this deal amidst reports that Caicedo is attracting interest from German club Werder Bremen.
It is being claimed that Levante want to tie up the powerful forward before selling him on for what they hope will be a handsome profit, at the end of the season.

Former Arsenal forward in shock Spurs link
11:30 AM 16 December, 2010
Tottenham Hotspur Football Club have reportedly enquired about Jose Antonio Reyes.
The 27-year-old was under contract at Arsenal from 2004-2007, although he failed to settle in England and spent the final season of this deal on loan at Real Madrid.
Reyes then made a permanent switch to Atletico Madrid, and despite spending a season in Portugal with Benfica in 2008-2009, he remains under contract until 2014.
According to IMScouting, Harry Redknapp has added the Spaniard on his list of potential signings, as he looks to win a first title at White Hart Lane since 1961.
Reyes, who scored 16 goals in 69 Premier League appearances for the Gunners, can operate on the wing or as a striker, and is rated in the region of £10million.

Liverpool to offer lifeline to Ireland
11:00 AM 16 December, 2010
Stephen Ireland is being lined up by Liverpool Football Club.
The 24-year-old was not so long ago considered to be one of the stars of the Premier League, as he had an integral role in Manchester City's first team plans.
But a disappointing 2009-2010 campaign saw the midfielder sold to Aston Villa in the summer, and his form has dipped even further ever since.
Ireland is now seeking a transfer away from the Midlands club, and reports suggest Roy Hodgson is prepared to offer him a lifeline at Anfield.
It is unsure whether the Reds boss will initially try and take Ireland on a loan deal, or if he will take the gamble on his likely valuation of £6million.

10:00 AM 16 December, 2010
Newcastle United Football Club will bid for Jose Font in the New Year.
New Magpies boss Alan Pardew is well aware of the capabilities of the Portuguese defender, who he signed for Southampton last January.
According to The Sun he now wants to sign the 26-year-old for a second successive winter, and is prepared to pay his former club £1.5million to do just that.
Font, who is set to double his wage if the move goes through, has made sixteen appearances in League One this season, and has chipped in with four goals.
The former Crystal Palace man could well be brought in to replace Steven Taylor, 24, who is out of contract in the summer but being tipped to leave in January

Hodgson faces Aston Villa competition for Stocker
09:30 AM 16 December, 2010
Aston Villa Football Club are ready to make a swoop for Valentin Stocker.
The 21-year-old is fast earning a reputation as one of the best talents in European football, and is currently under contract at FC Basle until 2014.
However, the Swiss side accept they face a fight to hold on to the exciting winger, who has scored three goals in seven international outings for Switzerland.
Liverpool coach Roy Hodgson has been on the trail of the Lucerne-born player for much of the season, and is said to be lining up an offer of £5million.
But the Anfield boss is likely to face competition from Villa manager Gerard Houllier, who also wants to add Stocker to his options when the window reopens.

Premier League giants circle for Blackpool star
09:00 AM 16 December, 2010
Blackpool Football Club's Matt Gilks is a wanted man.
The 28-year-old goalkeeper is out of contract at the end of the season, and it looks certain he will soon be heading out of Bloomfield Road.
Indeed, it has been reported that Ian Holloway is already seeking replacements for the former Norwich City man, with Huddersfield Town's Alex Smithies on the radar.
According to the Daily Mail, Gilks could remain in the North West by clinching a move to Manchester City, whilst Arsenal want to take him to the capital.
Such moves are sure to appeal to the shot-stopper, but on the downside, he would likely be considered to be nothing more than cover by both clubs.

Tevez will give 100% to Manchester City
11:00 PM 15 December, 2010
Carlos Tevez will give his all if selected for Manchester City, claims his advisor.
The Argentine international threw a huge spanner in the Blues bid for the Premier League title at the weekend, when he handed in a transfer request.
Fans are still confused as to why their star player has taken such action, but the club have made it clear they have no plans to sell the striker.
It has been suggested that Tevez is ready to go on strike to seal a transfer away from Eastlands, but his advisor insists this is absolute nonsense.
"I want to be clear that Carlos has never said he is not going to play or train or be professional. So those rumours are rubbish," Kia Joorabchian told the Telegraph.
"He will play if picked and 100 per cent do his best. He feels that is important every time he puts on the shirt. He always gives 100 per cent.

The former England international is out of favour at Manchester City, and has been heavily tipped to leave the club when the window reopens.
It has been claimed that Stoke are set to make an offer for Bridge, 30, during the winter, but Coates is bemused by such speculation.
"No, there's nothing in that," the chairman told Sky Sports News. "Certainly Tony [Pulis] has not mentioned it to me so I would be very surprised if he did."

East African Archrivals Tanzania, Kenya & Uganda Drawn In Zone V In The All Africa Games Qualifiers
Tanzania will take on Uganda as Kenya face Eritrea in the qualifiers slated for next month.
By M.J. Somoni
Dec 16, 2010 9:08:00 AM
Uganda Cranes have been handed a quick window to avenge their Cecafa semi-final defeat to Tanzania after the two neighbours were paired together in the preliminary round of the Zone V 2011 All Africa Games qualifiers. The Kilimanjaro Stars eliminated the Cranes 5-4 on penalties last week.
"It's a tournament reserved for the U23 group so the technical committee will sit and lay plans to have good representation," Uganda Football Federation technical director, Asuman Lubowa, told the Monitor.
According to the fixtures posted at Cafonline.com, Kenya will face Eritrea in the first match of the qualifiers that will kick–off next month until July.
The Maputo 2011 All Africa Games fixtures were released following the draw held on Monday in Cairo, Egypt.
The qualifying series begins in January 2011 till July 2011, to determine the eight teams for both Men's and Women's competitions. The 10th All Africa Games will be held from 3-18 September, 2011.
For the Men's, one team each will qualify from the seven zones to join hosts Mozambique for the final tournament.
