Aiyegbeni Yakubu is on African Nations Cup duty with Nigeria, while Svetoslav Todorov is back in training after injury but nowhere near a first-team comeback.

Scunthorpe boss Brian Laws will be unable to call on his trio of loan signings. Middlesbrough defender Phil Gulliver and Bolton midfielders Cleveland Taylor and Jeff Smith are all cup-tied having appeared in previous rounds.

Laws will also be without Rangers striker Steve MacLean who has been sidelined of late with a groin injury, while defenders Andy Butler and Mark Jackson are out with ankle injuries.

Royle may adopt the same attitude as the last round when Jim Magilton and Shefki Kuqi began on the bench against Derby. However, he may first wait for news on a couple of injury worries, with Darren Bent and Georges Santos set to miss out with foot and ankle problems.

Magilton and Richard Naylor trained on Thursday and should be fit, although John McGreal faces a fitness a late test after missing training all week with a back problem.

Sunderland boss Mick McCarthy has been dealt a fresh injury blow after midfielder Paul Thirlwell broke his nose.

Thirlwell, who was in contention for the game at Portman Road, suffered the fracture in the reserves' 2-1 home defeat by West Brom on Wednesday night and is now a major doubt.

The Black Cats will also be without former Town striker Marcus Stewart through suspension, although a bout of flu would have sidelined him anyway.

Another one of the alternatives of which it can throw Queiroz is that Borja Fernandez occupied that position.

In order to obtain this objective, the technician, Benito Floro, it has tried during all the week, with probable ' oncé initial of noticeable offensive character, in which it would give entrance to all the players of attack which it has.

The trainer, far from which this season has been habitual, has not presented the equipment that will put in heddle in the Bernabéu, although what it has not changed they are the problems with which it faces to complete a call.

To the habitual problems of the injured ones long play, the loss of last hour of the Catalan midfield player Roger is united Garci'a who, with a contractura, has remained outside the list of summoned for this party. Its seat will be left cover by Jose Mari Romero who, behind a sanction party, returns to the equipment.

Given the good trajectory of the equipment, immersed in the fight by the European zone, a victory of the Villarreal would suppose, in addition to the historical thing to break with the bad statistics, the confirmation of which the equipment of Floro can aspire to all this season.
