Griffin Dorsey - Keeps clean sheet in startDorsey made six clearances, two interceptions and took a shot in Wednesday's 1-0 victory against LAFC. He also created a chance in the match.

ImpactDorsey made just his second start of the season on Wednesday, and his second appearance at all in MLS over the last two months. But he acquitted himself well in a shutout win over LAFC and remains a viable option behind Franco Escobar and Daniel Steres at right-back.

Erik Sviatchenko - Keeps clean sheet in winSviatchenko made a block, seven clearances and two interceptions in Wednesday's 1-0 victory against LAFC. He also took three shots (one on target) in the match.

ImpactSviatchenko has started three consecutive league games for Houston in central defense, helping his side to back-to-back shutout wins over LAFC this week and becoming a penalty box threat from set pieces on Wednesday. The Dynamo's starting back-line is not a settled unit at the moment, especially while Teenage Hadebe (leg) remains injured, so Sviatchenko could nail down a regular starting spot ahead of the likes of Ethan Bartlow, Daniel Steres and Micael with a few more performances like this.

ImpactClark and the Dynamo have now posted back-to-back shutout wins over the reigning MLS champions this week, Clark's first league clean sheets in just over a month. He'll want to do it again next week against the fifth-placed Earthquakes, which have scored 21 goals in 17 matches this season.

Carlos Vela - Has quiet game in lossVela took a shot and created a chance in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat against the Dynamo.

ImpactVela and his LAFC teammates seem to be slumping through a post-CCL hangover, as the club is now winless in its last six games across all competitions. Vela is still averaging 2.6 shots (one on target) and 2.9 chances created per 90 minutes in league play this season, but he'll want to get his team back on track now that MLS is the only focus until the Leagues Cup begins in July.
