ImpactStojanovic played well on both sides of the ball on Saturday, but he couldn't find a breakthrough into Orlando's net. With four goals in his three previous games, he is capable of bouncing back next weekend against the Red Bulls, which are 10th in the Eastern Conference and have conceded 24 times in 19 matches this season.

Chris Mueller - Takes shot in winMueller took a shot on target and created a chance in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Chicago. He also won one of two tackles in the match.

ImpactMueller replaced an injured Nani in the first half of Saturday's game, and he played well on both sides of the ball for the remainder against the Fire. He might be back in the starting XI for Friday's clash against Inter Miami simply because of all of Orlando City's injuries to their forwards.

Robert Beric - Takes six shots in lossBeric took six shots (one on target) in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Orlando City.

ImpactBeric was dangerous on Saturday, but he wasn't accurate enough with his shooting to give Orlando too much trouble. He will want to be more clinical next weekend against the Red Bulls, which have conceded 24 goals in 19 matches this season.

ImpactIt is unclear whether Gimenez will be forced to miss additional game time due to his potential injury. Alvaro Medran could be returning to full health at the perfect time to be able to fill in for him in midfield if necessary.

Mason Stajduhar - Keeps clean sheet against ChicagoStajduhar made five saves and kept a clean sheet in Saturday's 1-0 victory against the Fire.

ImpactStajduhar kept his first clean sheet of the season on Saturday, though regular starter Pedro Gallese -- who was back on the bench against Chicago -- might be fit enough to return to the lineup by Friday's clash against Inter Miami.

Tesho Akindele - Records assist in winAkindele took two shots and assisted a goal in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Chicago. He also made four clearances and won one of one tackles in the match.

ImpactAkindele set up Benji Michel's winner on Saturday, earning a huge win for his side, which has suffered a litany of injuries this last month and started the day winless in three games. He will want to do it again Friday against Inter Miami, which have conceded 31 goals in 19 matches this season.
