To miss opener Puado (muscular) will miss Saturday's match at Celta Vigo.

Impact Puado had started missing friendlies later into the preseason and wasn't able to get back in time for this trip to Vigo. Now that he's out, Nico Melamed has a good chance of starting at forward or on the right wing as Raul de Tomas (undisclosed) is also out.
