Recovers from illness

Cruz (illness) returned to partial group training Wednesday after missing Sunday's win over Sevilla due to a respiratory illness, according to the club.

Analysis: Cruz's return to the training pitch is a positive development ahead of Saturday's clash against Barcelona. The defender has operated mostly as a depth option this season, and his availability gives Osasuna additional cover in the back line heading into a demanding fixture against the league leaders.

Misses Sevilla match with illness

Cruz was not in the squad for Sunday's 2-1 win over Sevilla because of a respiratory illness.

Analysis: Cruz has served mostly as a substitute option, so this issue affected the team's depth, with Alejandro Catena and Javi Galan staying put in central and left-back spots, respectively. The backup defender will look to recover in time for next weekend's meeting with Barcelona, but he'll be unlikely to play a meaningful role.
