GAME LOG
Ruled out Saturday
Achara (knee) has been ruled out to face the Timbers on Saturday.
Impact
Achara has yet to feature for the Dynamo since moving from Toronto last season, so his absence shouldn't alter many fantasy decisions. He's not expected to play a role for the team in the playoffs, either.

Impact

Available against D.C.
Achara (illness) is on the bench for Saturday's match against D.C. United.
Impact
Achara returns to the side Saturday after missing the last three matches with an illness in the health and safety protocol. He's come off the bench six matches this season, though he's gone at least 43 minutes in four of those, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him in the starting XI in future contests.
