Keaton Parks - Suffers hamstring injury Parks had one tackle (one won), one clearance and one interception in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Real Salt Lake. He was subbed off due to hamstring injury in the 80th minute.

Impact Parks has been one of the few players left on the team to start in every league match, but this can change after he was forced off Saturday with a hamstring injury. He already has a goal this season, totaling 40 tackles (21 won) and 25 clearances in 17 games. If the midfielder must sit out against Columbus, then Alfredo Morales could get the start at defensive midfielder alongside James Sands.

Tayvon Gray - Gets minutes Saturday Gray had one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Real Salt Lake.

Impact Gray made an appearance off the bench after serving a suspension last match for alleged use of language. He is expected to return to starting right back, where the team should return to a 4-2-3-1 formation with Gray, Tony Alfaro, Maxime Chanot and Braian Ezequiel Cufre lined up in the back for Saturday's clash with Real Salt Lake. In 11 appearances, the defender has made eight starts while totaling 20 clearances and 17 tackles (11 won).

Luis Barraza - Another clean sheet Barraza recorded four saves and allowed zero goals in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Real Salt Lake. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 83rd minute.

Impact Barraza gave a brilliant performance to keep his second clean sheet in two matches. It is his first back-to-back clean sheets of the season and his third overall. The keeper has allowed just five goals in the last five games with 15 saves and two clean sheets in that span. He will face off against Columbus Crew on Saturday, who have scored 10 goals in the last five contests.

Tayvon Gray - Returning from suspension Gray has been reinstated by MLS after completing an investigation into an alleged use of language last week. He will be available for selection in Saturday's clash against RSL.

Impact Gray missed last weekend's draw with New England with a suspension while the league investigated this incident, but he's now eligible to return and face Real Salt Lake on Saturday. He is likely to plug straight back into the XI either at right-back or in a back-three for NYCFC.

Thiago Martins Bueno - Out 6-8 weeks after knee surgery Martins has undergone an operation on his left knee and has been ruled out for 6-8 weeks while recovering, NYCFC announced Tuesday.

Impact Martins has already missed his side's last two games since injuring his knee in late May, and he'll now likely be sidelined through the start of the Leagues Cup in July after undergoing surgery. New York City has utilized a back-three formation in his absence thus far, with James Sands, Tony Alfaro, Justin Haak and Tayvon Gray (suspended) all making appearances alongside Maxime Chanot (suspended) in central defense already.

Revolution, NYCFC play to scoreless draw

JUNE 3, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Revolution and New York City FC play to a scoreless draw - The Boston Globe New England are winless in their last six games (0-3-3).

JUNE 3, 2023 • BOSTONGLOBE.COM

Justin Haak - Starts at center back Saturday Haak generated three clearances and two interceptions in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus New England Revolution.

Impact Haak got his first start since Feb 25 after moving to center back with Thiago Martins (knee) injured. He only recorded three clearances, but also helped the team maintain the clean sheet. If Martins is back in time for June 10, he would have to compete with Tony Alfaro for the starting spot against Real Salt Lake with Maxine Chanot set to serve a one-match suspension (yellow card accumulation).

Stephen Turnbull - Makes second straight start Turnbull registered one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus New England Revolution.

Impact Turnball has made his second straight start with the team in the midfield while filling in for injured players on the team. He's made four appearances overall this year, totaling just two clearances and two tackles (two won). The midfielder could see another start on June 10, with the club likely to play in a 3-4-3 with both center backs of Maxime Chanot (suspension) and Thiago Martins (knee) expected to not play against Real Salt Lake.

Tony Alfaro - Begins to get minutes with club Alfaro played three minutes in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus New England Revolution.

Impact Alfaro has begun to make appearances with the team, making his season debut on May 27 against Philadelphia after being an unused sub the first 13 matches of the year. With Maxime Chanot set to serve a one-match suspension (yellow card accumulation), the defender could see another start alongside James Sands and Justin Haak on June 10 versus Real Salt Lake with Thiago Martins (knee) still dealing with a knee injury.

Maxime Chanot - Set for suspension Chanot recorded three tackles (three won) and three clearances in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus New England Revolution. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 81st minute.

Impact Chanot is handed his fifth yellow card of the season and is set for a one-match suspension. He's been struggling to help keep clean sheets for the team with two in 14 games. However, the defender has been averaging about four clearances a contest after logging in 16 in the last five matches. With Thiago Martins (knee) this could cause some changes in the back with Tony Alfaro likely to start at center back, alongside James Sands and Justin Haak.

JUNE 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Luis Barraza - Secures clean sheet Barraza made two saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus New England Revolution.

Impact Barraza was able to get his second clean sheet this year and his first since March 12. He's allowed 10 goals in the last six games with 22 saves in that span. The keeper also brings his saves total on the season to 41, while conceding about 1.2 goals a contest. He will head to Real Salt Lake on June 10, who have scored seven goals in the last five matches.

Thiago Martins Bueno - Remains sidelined Martins (knee) is out for Saturday's clash with New England, according to the NYC FC injury report.

Impact Martins is the only NYC FC player on the injury report and he is ruled out for Saturday's clash. The defender missed a 3-1 loss to Cincinnati with a knee injury and evidently wasn't able to recover for Saturday's clash. Martins' next chance to return is a June 10 trip to Salt Lake.

Mitja Ilenic - Removed from injury report Ilenic (lower body) cleared the NYC FC injury report for Saturday's clash with New England.

Impact Ilenic was absent mid-week against Cincinnati due to a lower body injury but was able to recover enough to carry no injury designation into Saturday's clash. The defender has missed two matches due to the issue and had been on the bench for the three matches prior to picking up the injury. If Ilenic could recover his early season form he could see major starting minutes at right-back once more.
