Mauricio Pereyra - Creates three chances in draw Pereyra had one shot on goal, created three chances, sent in eight crosses (two accurate) and suffered two fouls during Wednesday's 1-1 draw against New England.

Impact Pereyra was once again Orlando's biggest playmaking source from both open play and set pieces and, despite not appearing on the scoresheet like he did on the previous match, his numbers leave nothing to complain about for fantasy players who pick him. Up next for Pereyra is Saturday's home clash against Houston.

Pedro Gallese - Concedes one in draw Gallese made two saves and conceded one goal during Wednesday's 1-1 draw against New England.

Impact Gallese returned from international duty and made himself available to start here just two days after playing with his national team in Qatar. Despite the long trip, the goalkeeper didn't show any signs of being tired, showing his usual safety and being beaten only once, but very few goalkeepers, if any, would be able to stop Carles Gil's brilliant long-range striker in the 22nd minute. This has been a season with ups and downs for Gallese, who kept five clean sheets over the first seven matches but then allowed 14 goals over the last seven. Up next for him is Saturday's home clash against Houston.

Robin Jansson - Scores in draw Jansson scored a goal off three shots (one on target), made six clearances and was shown a yellow card during Wednesday's 1-1 draw against New England.

Impact Jansson was solid as usual at the heart of the defense, but his biggest contribution was on the attacking end. In the 35th minute, the centre back picked up a loose ball inside the opposition's box and sent the ball between the keeper's legs from a tight angle to drew things level at 1-1. This was the first goal of the season for Jansson, who will try to keep it up during Saturday's home clash against Houston.

Rodrigo Schlegel - Takes two shots in draw Schlegel took two shots and created a chance in Wednesday's 0-0 draw against the Revolution. He also made six clearances, an interception and won two of two tackles in the match.

Impact Schlegel played well on both sides of the ball on Wednesday, but he picked up his fifth yellow card of the season -- including his double-booking red card in late May -- and will be suspended for Saturday's clash against Houston. Kyle Smith or Thomas Williams could replace him in central defense for the game as Antonio Carlos (hamstring) likely won't be fit enough yet.

Jhegson Mendez - On bench Wednesday Mendez (international duty) is on the bench for Wednesday's match against New England.

Impact Mendez didn't have to miss a match for only Orlando despite being away on international duty. He's only received four starts this season and with a full squad, that doesn't figure to change in an already limited central midfield role.

JUNE 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Pedro Gallese - Starting against Revs Gallese (international duty) is in the starting XI for Wednesday's match against New England.

Impact Gallese ended up not missing any time for Orlando despite playing 120 minutes only two days ago for Peru in Qatar. It's a bit of a surprise, but he's Orlando's No. 1 goalkeeper and they would've had to use their third option (Adam Grinwis) Wednesday if he didn't return. Gallese has given up just seven goals in seven away matches this season.

Orlando City relies on 3rd-string goalkeeper vs. New England The Lions return from a two-week break shorthanded in goal because of Pedro Gallese's international duty and Mason Stajduhar's broken jaw.

JUNE 15, 2022 • ORLANDOSENTINEL.COM

Mason Stajduhar - Out 6-8 weeks after jaw surgery Stajduhar has undergone surgery to repair a fracture in his jaw and is expected to miss 6-8 weeks while recovering, Orlando City announced Friday.

Impact Stajduhar has only featured once in MLS this season as the backup to Pedro Gallese in goal, so his absence won't affect the team too much as long as Gallese is healthy and available. However, Gallese will be returning from international duty while Orlando takes on the Revolution on Wednesday, meaning Adam Grinwis could start in goal for the game.

Antonio Carlos - Returns to training Carlos (hamstring) was back in full training with Orlando City on Monday, according to manager Oscar Pareja.

Impact Carlos was initially expected to miss 4-6 months when he went down with a hamstring injury in early April. Two months later it seems that he is recovering well ahead of schedule, and will hope to be available for selection soon, even if Wednesday's clash against the Revolution is likely too early. He should return to the starting lineup in central defense once he's fit enough.

Benji Michel - Available against New England Michel (lower leg) has returned to training with Orlando City and should be available for selection in Wednesday's clash against the Revolution, manager Oscar Pareja said Monday.

Impact Michel has missed Orlando's last three MLS games with a lower leg injury, but he has recovered and could be back in the starting lineup on Wednesday.

Michael Halliday - Called up for U20 Championships Halliday has been called up by the U.S. for the upcoming CONCACAF U-20 Championship in Honduras.

Impact Halliday could miss up to three or four MLS games while competing in this tournament, which will run from June 18 to July 3, depending on whether he will link up with the YNT before or after Orlando's league clash against the Revolution on Wednesday. He has two appearances off the bench so far this season.

Rodrigo Schlegel - Available against Revolution Schlegel has served his one-match ban and is eligible to play versus New England on June 15.

Impact After starting the year primarily as a substitute, Schlegel had made seven straight starts prior to his sending off versus Austin FC on May 23. In those contests, the central defender recorded one goal on three shots (one on target), 35 clearances and 16 tackles (eight won). Even if he does reclaim his place in the starting XI, Schlegel will be hard-pressed to offer more than mid-range fantasy value.

Cesar Nahuel Araujo Vilches - Eligible to play versus New England Araujo will be available against the Revolution on June 15 after serving his one-match suspension.

Impact Araujo had started all 13 games to start the season before being sent off versus Austin FC on May 22. Given his defensive midfield role, the fact that Araujo has managed just one shot on target this season, shouldn't come as a surprise to fantasy players. Even with Araujo restored to the starting XI, which he almost certainly will be versus New England, he is unlikely to offer much in the way of fantasy value outside of defensive stats.

JUNE 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Jhegson Mendez - Called up to national team Mendez has been called up by the Ecuadorian National Team for friendlies on June 2, 5 and 11.

Impact Mendez will be questionable to feature in next week's MLS clash against the Revolution as he'll be returning from international duty. He has started just four league games in defensive midfield for Orlando this season regardless.

Pedro Gallese - Called up to national team Gallese has been called up by the Peruvian National Team for the World Cup qualifier against either Australia or the UAE on June 13.

Impact Gallese will likely miss next week's MLS clash against the Revolution while returning from international duty, meaning Mason Stajduhar will likely start in goal for the match.

Tesho Akindele - Two shots off bench against FC Dallas Akindele had two shots after coming off the bench in a 3-1 defeat to FC Dallas on Saturday.

Impact Akindele had little impact on the match. The 30-year-old came as a substitute in the 75th minute and his most notable contribution was having two shots. However, none was on target.

Pedro Gallese - Three saves against FC Dallas Gallese made three saves and conceded three goals in a 3-1 defeat to FC Dallas on Saturday.

Impact Gallese had a mixed outing for the home team. The 32-year-old made three saves but conceded three goals as well. It was the third occasion in the last four league fixtures where Gallese conceded two or more goals.

Ercan Kara - Scores against FC Dallas Kara scored a goal in a 3-1 defeat to FC Dallas on Saturday.

Impact Kara had a good game for the hosts. The 26-year-old scored the team's only goal in the match which was his fourth in the league campaign. Other than that, Kara had six shots out of which two were on target.
