Walker Zimmerman - Scores goal against Cincinnati Zimmerman took two shots and scored a goal in Saturday's 3-1 defeat against FC Cincinnati. He also made two blocks, seven clearances, five interceptions and won two of two tackles...

Impact Zimmerman notched his second goal of the season as he pounced on a rebounded shot on Saturday, but from then on he had to do a lot of defending as his side received two red cards around the 70th minute. Zimmerman has started four of Nashville's last five matches heading into the All-Star game and the Leagues Cup tournament after an injury-plagued May and June.

Alex Muyl - Records four crosses Muyl registered one shot (one on goal) and four crosses (zero accurate) in Thursday's 2-0 defeat versus Philadelphia Union.

Impact Muyl came on as a substitute in the 63rd minute and produced one shot, four crosses, and two tackles in his 27 minutes of work. It wasn't an amazing display but he did match his season high for crosses in a game. Despite being a routine starter and only missing two games all year, the 27-year-old is yet to do much only having one goal and three secondary assists this season.

JULY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jacob Shaffelburg - Produces six crosses Shaffelburg registered two shots (zero on goal), six crosses (three accurate) and one chance created in Thursday's 2-0 defeat versus Philadelphia Union.

Impact Shaffelburg produced six crosses in Wednesday's game, matching a season high for him this season. The 23-year-old has been in and out of the starting lineup much of this season, appearing as a rotation player more than anything. He has only scored three goals in his 19 appearances this season and will have to produce more if he wants a promotion as a normal starter.

JULY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Hany Mukhtar - Takes five shots in loss Mukhtar had five shots (one on goal), eight crosses (four accurate) and five corners in Thursday's 2-0 loss against Philadelphia Union.

Impact Mukhtar was unfortunate not to score Wednesday after firing multiple shots that skipped off the woodwork and missed being a goal by inches. Despite not scoring the 28-year-old was still effective in the attack, producing five shots, eight crosses and four chances created. The German has hit a bit of a cold spell recently, only having one goal contribution in the last five games. Nashville will be looking for a big game from Mukhtar in their next match as they take on Cincinnati in a huge top of the league battle.

JULY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Joe Willis - Allows two in loss Willis had three saves and allowed two goals in Thursday's 2-0 defeat against Philadelphia Union.

Impact Willis was unlucky in Wednesday's game as he had to face two penalty kicks which were converted. Despite those two penalty kicks Willis looked decent making three saves. His next match will be a decisive one as he faces first place Cincinnati who have scored 36 goals in 22 matches this season.

JULY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Shaq Moore - Suspended Saturday Moore is set to serve a one-match suspension for yellow card accumulation and will not be an option for Saturday's clash with Cincinnati.

Impact Moore has been one of the better players for Nashville, recording three assists on 68 crosses (19 won) along with 63 tackles (36 won) thus far. With Daniel Lovitz also suspended and Jack Maher questionable, this will cause several chances to the lineup, with Alex Muyl likely to move back to the right back position, with Josh Bauer an option to play at center back alongside Walker Zimmerman and Lukas MacNaughton.

JULY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jack Maher - Status unclear Maher (lower body) is questionable for Saturday's match against Cincinnati.

Impact Maher was forced to miss his first match of the season after picking up a lower body injury. He had been a part of every minute this season prior to Wednesday, averaging about 3.3 clearances per game. If the defender has to sit out again, then Lukas MacMaughton will take his place at center back again.

Daniel Lovitz - Issued double yellow Lovitz recorded one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Thursday's 2-0 defeat to Philadelphia Union. He was sent off after acquiring two yellow card...

Impact Lovitz was shown his second yellow card of the match and was sent off Wednesday. He is set to miss Saturday's trip to Cincinnati. It will also be the first match the defender will miss this season as he has started all 23 games thus far, totaling three assists and averaging about 3.9 crosses per contest. Taylor Washington would be the first player up to get the start at left back Saturday in his absence.

Jack Maher - Picks up lower body injury Maher (lower body) is questionable for Wednesday's match against the Philadelphia Union.

Impact Maher has not missed a minute of any match this season, making 22 starts in a row while playing every 90 minutes. He should still be able to play, however if he is deemed not fit then Lukas MacNaughton could get the start alongside Walker Zimmerman.

Hany Mukhtar - Dangerous off bench Mukhtar registered five shots (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 1-0 loss versus Chicago Fire.

Impact Perhaps in preparation for Nashville SC's midweek game against a better Philadelphia team, this was Mukhtar's first substitution appearance since March 5. But in 45 minutes, Mukhtar did enough to be the only Nashville player to attempt more than three crosses and three shots Sunday.

JULY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Randall Leal - Attempts 11 crosses Leal had two shots (zero on goal), 11 crosses (three accurate) and three corners in Sunday's 1-0 loss against Chicago Fire.

Impact Leal was Nashville SC's best player in terms of threatening the Fire defense. But like in two of the Nashville team's last three games, it failed to score a goal Sunday. The other game had Leal scoring twice during a 2-0 win.

JULY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Walker Zimmerman - Can return from suspension Zimmerman will be eligible to feature in Wednesday's clash against the Union after serving a red card suspension.

Impact Zimmerman was suspended for Saturday's loss to the Fire after getting sent off in the previous match against D.C., but he'll be available to return to the squad this week. Due to various injuries and international call-ups, Zimmerman has started just three of Nashville's last 12 league matches since the start of May.
