Diego Palacios - Away on international duty Palacios is with Ecuador away on international duty for Copa America.
Impact Palacios will be out the next two weeks, which means LAFC will need someone else at left-back. He's started all but one match this season and in that lone absence, Marco Farfan moved back and took over on the flank.

Pablo Sisniega - Two saves vs. NYCFC Sisniega made two saves during Saturday's 2-1 defeat to NYCFC.
Impact Sisniega face four shots and made only two saves in an all-around disappointing showing. The keeper has been poor to start the season, and hasn't kept a clean sheet since the opener. Sisniega will hope to get right over the upcoming break.

Diego Palacios - Four crosses in defeat Palacios sent in four crosses (two accurate), creating one chance during Saturday's 2-1 defeat to NYCFC.
Impact Palacios was excellent on both sides of the ball, making five interceptions and three tackles during Saturday's defeat. The defender was busy at left-back getting forward well and nearly grabbing a couple assists. Palacio has a long break to recover before a clash with Houston.
MAY 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Tristan Blackmon - Six interceptions in loss Blackmon made six interceptions and created one chance during Saturday's 2-1 defeat to NYCFC.
Impact Blackmon wasn't particularly poor Saturday, but he failed to slow down an absolutely dominant NYCFC side. The defender struggled to get forward, creating only a single chance from right-back. Blackmon will hope to get on the scoresheet against Houston after the break.
MAY 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Corey Baird - Scores in loss Baird scored once on his only shot on goal during Saturday's 2-1 defeat to NYCFC.
Impact Baird made the most of a single golden opportunity to get LAFC on the board, but it proved to be too little for the win. The forward came off after 73 minutes after an all-around solid showing. Baird will hope to stay in the goals after the international break.
MAY 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Kwadwo Opoku - Out after knee surgery Opoku will be out an unknown amount of time after undergoing knee surgery last week, according to head coach Bob Bradley.
Impact Opoku played at least 45 minutes in each of the first four matches and a knee surgery prevents him from building off that. The hope is that it's a minor issue and he'll be back in a couple months, but given the lack of info from the team, his length of absence is unknown at the moment.

Los Angeles FC plays New York City FC after Rossi's 2-goal game
Diego Rossi leads Los Angeles FC into a matchup with New York City FC after totaling two goals against ColoradoMAY 27, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Mark Anthony Kaye - Takes two shots in win Kaye had two shots (one on target), three inaccurate crosses and four fouls drawn in Saturday's 2-1 win against Colorado.
Impact Kaye is a regular in the squad, but outside of a secondary assist, he's yet to make the score-sheet from seven shots and eight chances created. There will undoubtedly be opportunities and once Carlos Vela gets going, there will be more goals, which led to three goals and four assists for Kaye last season.

Eduard Atuesta - Assists in Saturday win Atuesta had a secondary assist to go with three shots not on target, one chance created and five crosses (one accurate) in Saturday's 2-1 win against Colorado.
Impact Atuesta didn't have a shot on goal Saturday for the first time this season. His upside is somewhat limited in a midfield role and while he'll get opportunities in this attack, his number of set pieces will likely drop off as Carlos Vela sees more time in the squad.
MAY 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Corey Baird - Assists in 2-1 win Baird assisted to go with one shot on target and two other chances created in Saturday's 2-1 win against Colorado.
Impact Baird has made the score-sheet in four of six matches this season, but he's also been subbed off early in all of them. While he has decent upside in this attack, there's a chance his minutes fall off once Carlos Vela is back to full health, something to keep in mind after the international break.
MAY 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Carlos Vela - Assists in Saturday start Vela had two shots not on target, four chances created and nine crosses (three accurate) in 59 minutes of Saturday's 2-1 win against Colorado.
Impact Vela got the start Saturday and even though he only made it 59 minutes, he still put in solid fantasy numbers. With another week under his belt, he could be closer to 70 or 80 minutes against NYC FC next match, leading to an even better fantasy floor, similar to his norm.
MAY 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Diego Rossi - Bags brace against Rapids Rossi braced and finished with four shots (two on target) and four chances created in Saturday's 2-1 win against Colorado.
Impact Rossi returned to the score-sheet Saturday and also added a surprising four chances. If he can add some assists this season, his fantasy value could get a nice boost after accruing 16 goals with just four assists last season.
MAY 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Pablo Sisniega - Allows goal in win Sisniega made one save in Saturday's 2-1 win against Colorado.
Impact Sisniega has made just 11 saves in six matches, which is taking away a lot of fantasy value, even in wins. Until clean sheets become a regular thing for the back line, a lack of saves will hurt his fantasy value in most matchups, as seen in the win against Colorado.
