Emerson Hyndman - Out up to six weeks Hyndman is expected to miss four-to-six weeks due to a right quad injury suffered in training, his club confirmed Wednesday.

Impact Hyndman is all but sure to be out for the entirety of July due to this injury, though not much longer than that. He's only made two starts from nine total appearances this season but Hyndman could've easily played more given the lengthy injury list for his team. As a result, Hyndman's abence isn't likely to affect the lineup much but Amar Sejdic has recently started in a defensive-midfield role.

Rocco Rios Novo - Concedes two goals against NYCFC Rios Novo made zero saves and conceded two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw against New York City.

Impact Rios Novo was beaten by a Valentin Castellanos brace on Sunday, and he's now let in six goals across his last three MLS games. It won't get any easier next weekend against Austin FC, which boast the third-best attack in the league with 32 goals in 17 matches this season.

Ronaldo Cisneros - Records assist in win Cisneros subbed into Sunday's match against NYCFC in the 67th minute, and he assisted a goal and made an interception in the 2-2 draw.

Impact Cisneros came off the bench and made the difference on Sunday, setting up Dom Dwyer's late equalizer against New York City. It is unclear whether Cisneros makes it into Atlanta's first-choice lineup if everyone is healthy as he seems to be battling Marcelino Moreno for the spot on the left wing, but he'll have an opportunity to return to the XI in the Austin FC clash next weekend.

Josef Martínez - Scores goal against New York City Martinez scored a goal and created two chances in Sunday's 2-2 draw against NYCFC. He took four shots (two on target) overall in the match.

Impact Martinez bagged his third goal in his last four games since returning from injury, heading home from close range on Sunday. He will want to extend that form into next weekend's clash against Austin FC, which have conceded 20 times in 17 matches this season.

Impact Sejdic started his second consecutive MLS game in midfield after going more than two months without a league start. He has been in the XI eight times overall this season, but he will likely return to the bench next weekend when Franco Ibarra returns from suspension.

Emerson Hyndman - Out against New York City Hyndman is not in Atlanta's match day squad for Sunday's clash against NYCFC.

Impact Hyndman picked up a knock during training this week and is therefore being kept out of the squad Sunday as a precaution, Doug Roberson of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. More details are likely to emerge in the coming days.

Franco Ibarra - Suspended Sunday Ibarra picked up his fifth yellow card of the season versus New York City Red Bulls and will be suspended against New York City FC on Sunday

Impact Ibarra had started eight straight matches, in which he registered one assist, five shots (zero on target) and 28 tackles (18 won) but will now have to watch from the sidelines. Without Ibarra in the squad, Emerson Hyndman could be in line to step into the starting XI on Sunday.

Ronaldo Cisneros - Goal drought continues Cisneros had two shots (one on goal) in Friday's 2-1 loss against New York Red Bulls.

Impact Cisneros is mired in a six-game goal drought dating back to his hat-trick performance versus Chicago on May 7. During his slump, the forward has put just two of his 11 efforts on target and will need to start testing opposing keepers more if he is going to break his goalless streak.

Rocco Rios Novo - Allows two in defeat Rios Novo recorded one save while conceding two goals in Friday's 2-1 loss to New York Red Bulls.

Impact Rios Novo was making his third consecutive start while Brad Guzan and Dylan Castanheira are both sidelined with Achilles injuries. With the team extending the contract of Raul Gudino, Rios Novo could be in danger of losing the starting job soon, perhaps as early as Sunday's matchup with NYCFC.

Luiz Araujo - Launches four crosses Araujo had three shots (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate), and one corner in Friday's 2-1 defeat to New York Red Bulls.

Impact Over his last five outings, Araujo has recorded 24 crosses (five accurate), along with two goals on 19 shots (five on target), one assist and five corners. The forward should continue to push the attack, usually from the right side, heading into Sunday's clash with New York City FC and figures to be a top-half fantasy target as a result.

JULY 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Alexandro De John - Racks up nine clearances De John had four tackles (two won), nine clearances, and one interception in Friday's 2-1 defeat versus New York Red Bulls.

Impact De John has started four of the club's last six contests due to various injuries on the Atlanta backline. While the central defender is unlikely to generate much in the way of offensive production, he should continue to rack up clearances and interceptions if he maintains his place in the starting XI.

JULY 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Josef Martínez - Scores off bench Martinez scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Friday's 2-1 defeat against New York Red Bulls.

Impact Since returning from a knee injury, Martinez has started two of his last four outings while registering two goals on six shots (three on target), one assist and eight chances created. The forward should continue to feature heavily in the starting XI moving forward and could even be an option off the bench given his attacking ability.
