Forced off injured Sunday
Frances was forced off injured in the 86th minute of Sunday's clash against Atletico Madrid after being unable to continue due to knee discomfort, leaving Girona a man down at a crucial stage of the match.
Analysis: Frances, who had been preferred over Daley Blind in each of the last four games, was forced off in the 86th minute due to knee discomfort, leaving Girona down to ten men in the closing stages. He will now undergo tests to determine the severity of the issue and whether he will be available for the crucial relegation battle against Elche. If he fails to recover in time, Blind is likely to reclaim his starting spot in central defense
Doesn't threaten offensively
Frances had five shots (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Thursday's 1-1 draw versus Real Sociedad. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 62nd minute.
Analysis: Frances didn't put any of his shots on the target and had one accurate cross of his four, so he contributed little to Girona's push forward for goals. The defender will need to be more efficient to help Girona break down an Atletico Madrid side which has given up the fourth-fewest goals in La Liga this season.
