Option against Oviedo
Boye (hamstring) will travel with Alaves for Sunday's clash against Oviedo and could feature, according to coach Quique Sanchez Flores. "Lucas will travel tomorrow, we will see if he plays."
Analysis: Boye has been sidelined for three consecutive matches after suffering a biceps femoris fiber tear, but his inclusion in the travelling squad is a more encouraging update than recent weeks had suggested. The Argentine striker is Alaves' second-highest scorer this season with 11 goals and getting him available for the final fixtures of the survival battle would be a significant boost for a side that has been relying on Toni Martinez and Ibrahim Diabate in his absence.
Out midweek, possibility for Oviedo
Boye (hamstring) will miss another game, with manager Quique Sanchez Flores saying prior to Wednesday's clash with Barcelona that "Lucas won't be there. He's training very well. He might return [in Oviedo]".
Analysis: Boye has been ruled out for a third straight match, but he's at least back in training, which increases his chances of being fit for the final two games of the season. He's the squad's second-best scorer with 11 goals this season, ranking behind Toni Martinez (undisclosed), who is expected to lead the front line alongside Ibrahim Diabate until Boye is ready to play.
