Impact Dean is on the bench Saturday after missing one match. The defender is an option once more and could see a run out in the second half to test his fitness in a beleaguered back line.

Carlos Teran - Picks up injury Teran (upper leg) is listed as questionable for Saturday's trip to Montreal, according to the Chicago injury report.
Impact Teran picked up a leg injury after a 4-0 loss to D.C. United and is questionable Saturday. The defender would be a major loss as he has taken a significant role in the starting XI of late. Mauricio Pineda could take over in central defense if Teran is ruled out.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Kacper Przybylko - Added to injury report Przybylko (lower leg) is out for Saturday's trip to Montreal, according to the Chicago injury report.
Impact Przybylko is ruled out Saturday after picking up a lower leg injury. The striker has had a tumultuous relationship with the club of late and hasn't been selected frequently due to that relationship. Now that he is injured little will change as Kei Kamara continues to lead the line.

Federico Navarro - Lower leg injury confirmed Navarro (lower leg) is out for Saturday's trip to Montreal, according to the Chicago injury report.

Carlos Teran - Scores own goal in loss Teran registered an own goal, one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-0 loss to D.C. United.
Impact Teran scored an own goal Saturday, a crucial error which gave D.C. the 3-0 lead in the first half. He didn't have a particularly productive game outside of that either, as he failed to win either of his attempted tackles and made one clearance in his full 90 minutes of action.
SEPTEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Gaston Gimenez - Four shots in loss Gaston Gimenez recorded four shots (zero on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 4-0 defeat versus D.C. United.
Impact Gimenez set a season high in shots Saturday with four, but failed to put one on target. He represented the most significant scoring threat for a Fire side which struggled to break through the D.C. defense. He also played the full 90 minutes for the first time since July 1 at Orlando SC.
SEPTEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Christopher Brady - Concedes four in loss Brady recorded one save and allowed four goals in Saturday's 4-0 defeat to D.C. United.
Impact Brady had a tough outing Saturday, as he conceded four goals on just five shots on target. It's the most goals he has allowed in an MLS match all season. He faces a slightly easier matchup next Saturday at CF Montreal, a side which has scored 28 goals in 27 league matches this season.

Federico Navarro - Forced off Navarro (undisclosed) was forced off with an apparent injury during the first half of Saturday's clash with D.C. United.
Impact Navarro was brought off after 25 minutes and tried to stretch the injury out but was unable to do so. Navarro has a full two weeks to recover before a Sept. 16 trip to Montreal, giving him a good chance to return if the injury isn't deemed major.

Christopher Brady - Four saves in loss Brady registered four saves and allowed one goal in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat against Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
Impact Brady so nearly came away a draw and clean sheet that would have been well-earned. It wasn't to be though and the goalkeeper's early concession proved to be costly. Brady has had an impressive rookie campaign with 78 saves and 6 clean sheets in 22 matches behind a very leaky Chicago defense.
AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jairo Torres - Three crosses Wednesday Torres generated one shot (zero on goal) and three crosses (one accurate) in Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
Impact Torres came off the bench for the final 23 minutes and sent in three crosses but failed to create a chance. The forward has fallen for the most part into a depth role, a disappointing turn around after he was expected to take a step forward in 2023. Torres still has contributed in almost every match he's been fit for, he's just been limited to five starts.
AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Kei Kamara - Four scoreless shots Kamara had four shots (two on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat versus Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
Impact Kamara's four shots weren't particularly threatening and exemplified why he hasn't scored since June. The striker simply doesn't have the goal-scoring touch he once had and has struggled to five goals in 23 appearances on 42 shots. Kamara doesn't offer much creatively either with eight chances created in that span.
AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Brian Gutierrez - Five crosses in loss Gutierrez recorded five shots (zero on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
Impact Gutierrez had one of his best showings of 2023 as far as volume goes but he just wasn't able to get on the scoresheet. It's still been a good year for the young forward who is up to nine goal contributions in 25 appearances, already equaling his total from 2022. Gutierrez will hope to find some goal-scoring form once more and finish 2023 on a high note with the major volume giving him something to work from.
