Bradley Stuver - Two-save win Stuver made two saves and one clearance in Thursday's 1-0 win versus Charlotte FC.

Impact Stuver faced only two shots Thursday and stopped both on his way to a comfortable win. The keeper has been in flying form of late, and is in the midst of a very strong 2022 campaign. Stuver will hope to keep this going Monday against a more dangerous Colorado attack.

Danny Hoesen - Makes rare start Hoesen created one chance and had one tackle (zero won) in Thursday's 1-0 win over Charlotte FC.

Impact Hoesen made his first start of the season during Thursday's win, though he didn't even managed a sight of goal. The veteran has two goals on the campaign as he looks set to spend another season on the bench. Hoesen only played 60 minutes Thursday so he should be available against Colorado on Monday if Maximiliano Urruti is unable to play.

Alexander Ring - Busy for win Ring had four tackles (two won), one clearance, and one interception in Thursday's 1-0 victory versus Charlotte FC.

Impact Ring had plenty to do behind the ball during Thursday's win as he helped shut down a disjointed Charlotte attack. The defensive midfielder has two goals and assists so far in 2022 but hasn't scored since early May. Fantasy consistency has been hard to come by for Ring, but he does fill the stat sheet defensively something that will be tested against Colorado next time out.

Nicholas Lima - Assists once more Lima assisted once to go with two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Thursday's 1-0 victory against Charlotte FC.

Impact Lima has now provided assists in back-to-back games to move to a career-high three MLS assists in a season. The right-back is set to blow by all of his career-bests putting together by far his strongest offensive season despite being just 17 games in. Lima will look to keep building on this against Colorado next time out.

Daniel Pereira - Nets off bench Pereira scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Thursday's 1-0 win against Charlotte FC.

Impact Pereira came off the bench for the final 30 minutes and scored the decisive goal Thursday. The defensive midfielder isn't much of a goal threat especially off the bench though he does have two goals in 2022. Pereira will look to return to the starting XI for a Monday trip to Colorado.

Maximiliano Urruti - Out against Charlotte Urruti missed Thursday's victory against Charlotte FC for an undisclosed reason.

Impact Urruti was replaced by Danny Hoesen at striker on Thursday, and he could fill in once again versus the Rapids on Monday if necessary.

Jhohan Romana - Comes off injured in season debut Romana was subbed out of Thursday's victory against Charlotte FC in the 50th minute after suffering a head injury.

Impact Austin manager Josh Wolff said after the game that Romana had taken a shot to the head in the first half and never fully recovered before needing to go off. Thursday was Romana's first MLS appearance of the season after a hamstring injury had sidelined him for a while, but he will now be questionable to be able to feature against the Rapids on Monday. Kipp Keller could slide into the starting lineup if he and Julio Cascante (undisclosed) are unable to play.
