Lewis Morgan - Eight crosses in draw Morgan sent in eight crosses (one accurate) during Wednesday's one-all draw with Orlando.

Impact Morgan was excellent getting forward on the right-side of midfield. His floor with his duty on corners is consistent, but the poor finishing around him has handicapped him throughout the season. Morgan's next match is a Sunday clash with Nashville.

Rodolfo Pizarro - Second assist of season Pizarro provided one assist during Wednesday's one-all draw with Orlando.

Impact Pizarro grabbed his second assist of the season during Wednesday's draw. Pizarro hasn't been a consistent starter, and his value is limited coming off the bench. Next up is a Sunday clash with Nashville.

Victor Ulloa - First assist of season Ulloa provided one assist on one chance created during Wednesday's one-all draw with Orlando.

Impact Ulloa grabbed his first assist of the season, setting up the only goal in the draw. The midfielder hasn't offered much going forward but is consistently solid. His next match is a Sunday clash against Nashville.

Kieran Gibbs - First Miami goal Gibbs scored once on his only shot during Sunday's one-all draw with Orlando.

Impact Gibbs opened his Miami account with a Florida-derby goal. The defender had little to do behind the ball, but the goal will make this a strong fantasy showing. Gibbs will hope to settle into a very weak Miami side Sunday, against Nashville.

Ryan Shawcross - Out with back spasms Shawcross was unavailable for Wednesday's 1-1 draw with Orlando due to back spasms, according to Michelle Kaufman of the Miami Herald.

Impact Shawcross has missed each of the last two matches with this injury and it's not entirely clear when he'll return. While he's out, Kelvin Leerdam has moved into a center-back spot to support more natural options of Christian Makoun and Jorge Figal.

Rodolfo Pizarro - Plays off bench in return Pizarro played 30 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's match against Orlando, his first since leaving for the Gold Cup.

Impact Pizarro figures to return to the starting XI for upcoming contests, especially with a possible injury to Robbie Robinson. He's been in and out of the squad this season, but if he can stay healthy, more minutes should be available to him.

AUGUST 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Robbie Robinson - Exits with possible injury Robinson was forced off in the 61st minute of Wednesday's match against Orlando with a possible injury.

Impact Robinson had started four-straight matches, the last two on a short week, so it wouldn't be surprising if this was an injury. He's had constant hamstring issues this season and on another short turnaround, there's a decent chance he'll miss the squad Sunday against Nashville, pointing to a possible start for Rodolfo Pizarro or Julian Carranza.

Rodolfo Pizarro - To return Wednesday Pizarro is expected to train and be available for Wednesday's trip to Orlando City, according to manager Phil Neville via Franco Panizo of SBI Soccer.

Impact Pizarro was a late addition to Mexico's roster for the Gold Cup and he's already back with his club. He's only made one start in his last three appearances and his role may not change much upon his return.

Inter Miami CF visits Orlando City SC after Higuain's 2-goals game

Gonzalo Higuain leads Inter Miami CF into a matchup with Orlando City SC after scoring two goals against Montreal

AUGUST 2, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Gonzalo Higuain - Fires in brace for 2-1 victory Higuain scored twice, with one from penalty, on two shots (both on target) and drew two fouls in Saturday's 2-1 win over CF Montreal.

Impact While Higuain turned in overall a fairly quiet outing he was absolutely clinical on both of his chances and would likely still steal the show on the day. The striker is back on the score sheet after a three-match dry spell and is now improving to seven goals and two assists on the season. He's been productive of late with 11 shots and six chances created over his past three matches.

AUGUST 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Federico Higuain - Sends three crosses in rare start Higuain had one shot (on target), three crosses (one accurate), two tackles (one won) and two corners in Saturday's 2-1 win over CF Montreal.

Impact Higuain was in a decent form here again as he's now started in back to back matches keeping Blaise Matuidi on the bench. The former has now mounted three shots, four chances created and seven crosses in those two affairs and has been on set pieces partially but given Matuidi doesn't have an injury he could be back in the lineup at any moment which could get Higuain back to the bench.

AUGUST 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Gregore - Assists in win over Montreal Gregore tallied one assist, two aerials won, two tackles, team-high 39 passes completed and a yellow card in Saturday's 2-1 win over CF Montreal.

Impact Gregore was fairly productive in multiple categories while adding his third assist of the season. He hasn't played much on the front foot of late though and it'll be tough to count on him to continue getting assists on regular basis despite his great tally thus far.

AUGUST 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Lewis Morgan - Sends 10 crosses in victory Morgan had 10 crosses (two accurate), one chance created, two fouls drawn and three corners in Saturday's 2-1 win over CF Montreal.

Impact Morgan had another highly productive night in terms of crossing and has now amassed 36 crosses over his past three outings alone. In addition he's had three shots and eight chances created over the same span. The winger though hasn't scored or assisted since May and remains with merely one goal and one assist on the season.

AUGUST 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Robbie Robinson - Takes six shots versus Montreal Robinson took six shots (one on target) and added one chance created and four tackles (three won) in Saturday's 2-1 win over CF Montreal.

Impact Robinson remains very active in front of goal and has now mounted one goal on 12 shots over his past three starts since returning from hamstring injury. The winger has laso added five chances created, four crosses and six tackles over the same span and continues to hold a huge uspide in most formats.

AUGUST 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Blaise Matuidi - Sends two crosses off bench Matuidi had one shot (off target) and two crosses (none accurate) in 24 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 2-1 win over CF Montreal.

Impact Matuidi has now been left on the bench in back to back outings and has merely registered 69 minutes of play over his past three matches. There is no known physical reason for the drop in his playing time and there is no word of an argument with the management. He's started in each affair from the beginning of the season before that span and may just be given a brief breather here in which case he should be back in the lineup very soon.

AUGUST 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Nick Marsman - Allows one in win Marsman made one save in Saturday's 2-1 win over CF Montreal.

Impact Marsman couldn't really leave his mark in this one and is still looking for his first clean sheet since joining his new club. He's not off quite to the expected start of him and with 10 saves and seven goals allowed in three starts he's delivered very little in fantasy thus far.

Leandro Gonzalez Pirez - Picks up another suspension Gonzalez Pirez conceded a yellow card during Saturday's 2-1 win over Montreal. He'll be suspended for Wednesday's trip to Orlando City after picking up his eighth booking of the se...

Impact Gonzalez Pirez has started in all 14 of his appearances, but he's conceded more fouls than he's made tackles and that's never a great way to do things when he's now received two different accumulation suspensions. Ryan Shawcross is one option to fill the gap in defense, though recent signing Ventura Alvarado is also able to play as a center back.
