Sebastian Driussi - Takes two shots against LAFCDriussi took two shots (one on target) and won one of one tackles in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against LAFC. He also made a block and two clearances in the match.

ImpactDriussi has taken multiple shots in all six of his MLS appearances this season mostly from attacking midfield, but that has only translated to one goal and two wins as a team in what has been a very disappointing 2023 for Austin thus far.

Denil Maldonado - Keeps clean sheet in first startMaldonado made four clearances, two interceptions and won one of one tackles in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Austin FC. He also took a shot and created a chance in the match.

ImpactMaldonado made his full debut for LAFC Saturday after joining the club on-loan this offseason, and he shut out last year's Western Conference runners-up alongside Giorgio Chiellini in central defense.

Kwadwo Opoku - Takes three shots in winOpoku took three shots in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Austin FC.

ImpactOpoku has taken 14 shots (five on target) with six chances created as he's started all six of LAFC's MLS matches along the attacking line. That production is not disappointing by any means, but only scoring one goal thus far might open an opportunity to get benched as the competition for forward spots is so high among the defending champions' ranks, with Carlos Vela, Denis Bouanga and winter signing Stipe Biuk all stars in their own rights as well.
