Celta Vigo will be looking to extend their unbeaten run in La Liga to six matches when they resume their 2019-20 campaign at home to Villarreal on Saturday afternoon.
The Sky Blues are currently just above the relegation zone in 17th spot but will enter this match in better form than a Villarreal side that occupy eighth position in the table.
Celta will be unable to call upon goalkeeper Sergio Alvarez due to a knee injury, but Garcia’s squad is otherwise in good shape ahead of their return to action.
Aspas was unavailable to face Getafe last time out through suspension, but the experienced attacker is back for this game, while Denis Suarez is also in contention to start.
There are unlikely to be many surprises in the XI, meaning that Aspas should again join Rafinha and Fedor Smolov in a forward position, although Pione Sisto and Santi Mina are also viable options.
As for Villarreal, Ruben Pena is suspended due to the yellow card that he picked up against Leganes last time out, while Bruno Soriano and Ramiro Funes Mori are still on the treatment table.
Samuel Chukwueze was named on the bench against Leganes but should start this one, potentially joining Paco Alcacer and Gerard Moreno as part of a front three.
Javi Ontiveros is another option, but Santi Cazorla and Vicente Iborra should both keep their spots.
