Dejan Joveljic - Provides assist in winJoveljic assisted once to go with two chances created in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Real Salt Lake.
ImpactJoveljic extended his productive streak by delivering a one-touch pass that led to the only goal of the match after 74 minutes of play against Real Salt Lake. That was his seventh goal or assist over his last four starts and strengthened his status as the Galaxy's top contributor in the current campaign. He's also averaging 2.3 shots (1.3 on target) and 1.3 chances created per game.

Diego Fagundez - Quiet outing versus Real Salt LakeFagundez had one shot (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 1-0 victory over Real Salt Lake.
ImpactFagundez had a free kick shot denied by the goalkeeper but generated little else during Saturday's clash. With three goals in 20 games played (11 starts) this year, Fagundez holds moderate offensive potential and is reliable mainly for his set-piece work. Still, he's getting plenty of minutes as a central attacking midfielder in the absence of both Riqui Puig (groin) and Gaston Brugman (bruise).

Martin Caceres - Suffers injury in winCaceres was subbed off early with a possible concussion during Saturday's 1-0 win over Real Salt Lake.
ImpactCaceres got hurt in a collision with Cristian Arango early in the game. The defender's status for future weeks is currently unclear as he'll likely require medical evaluation to rule out a major problem. While he had just returned to the starting lineup after being an unused substitute in two consecutive matches, his potential absence would reduce the roster's depth while benefiting Jalen Neal in terms of playing time.

Maya Yoshida - Records four clearances in winYoshida recorded two tackles (one won) and four clearances in Saturday's 1-0 win against Real Salt Lake.
ImpactYoshida got his second straight win and clean sheet through a good defensive effort at Salt Lake. It has been quite a consistent campaign for the veteran, who stands out as the only player on the squad with all 1800 minutes played, while averaging a team-high 4.0 clearances per game. He'll likely stay busy in a highly defensive role as part of a four-man back line in future clashes.

John McCarthy - Unbeaten in win over Real Salt LakeMcCarthy made four saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 1-0 win versus Real Salt Lake.
ImpactMcCarthy managed to control the threat of the league's second-best offense to secure his second clean sheet in a row. He has now made 67 saves across 18 matches played, ranking fifth in the competition in that category. Up next is a tricky visit to San Jose Earthquakes, who scored at least one goal in each of their previous five games.

Cristian Arango - Forced off in defeatArango left the field due to concussion after colliding with a rival player in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Los Angeles Galaxy.
ImpactArango started as a lone center-forward but was replaced by Anderson Julio in the 21st minute Saturday. This blow represents a serious concern for the team given that Arango is the league's leading scorer with 16 goals. The star forward was on the bench only twice this season, and both times his spot was taken by Julio, so that should be the case again if the concussion prevents him from playing upcoming matchups.

Andres Gomez - Active up front SaturdayGomez generated six shots (two on goal), seven crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Los Angeles Galaxy. In addition, he was given a yellow card i...
ImpactGomez failed to make a direct contribution despite leading his side in shots and crosses during the defeat. It was his second scoreless game over his most recent three appearances, although he notched a brace in the other of those contests and had previously tallied eight goals and six assists in 16 matches. He'll look to remain a strong attacking threat from his usual right-wing position.
