Players to Watch
Daniel RĂos (Atlanta United) - Six goal contributions in as many matches is a significant output for the Mexican striker, who joined the club in the spring on loan from CD Guadalajara in Liga MX. His most recent goal came against Real Salt Lake, and he also scored the lone goal for the 5-Stripes in New England. With Jamal ThiarĂ© making his way back from a shoulder injury, Atlanta will rely on RĂos to contribute from the striker position.
MatĂas CĂ³ccaro (CF MontrĂ©al) - The Uruguayan forward ranks second in goals scored for CF MontrĂ©al this season (4) in fewer than 600 minutes played. His latest goal came in the team's most recent draw with Vancouver. CĂ³ccaro scored the equalizer to save a point at home. He'll be one to watch in the later moments of the match, especially if he comes on as a super sub.
