Damir Kreilach - Out against Portland Kreilach (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's regular season finale against the Timbers, according to RSL's injury report.
Impact Kreilach has been out since April with a back injury and even if Salt Lake is able to qualify for the playoffs on Decision Day this weekend, he seems unlikely to get fit in time to feature again in 2022.

Bobby Wood - Out for Decision Day match Wood (groin) will miss Sunday's clash against the Timbers, according to RSL's injury report.
Impact Wood has been out since June after undergoing surgery on an adductor injury, and he has now been ruled out for the regular season finale against Portland. If Salt Lake is able to qualify for the playoffs then Wood can still hope to return to fitness for the postseason.

Jefferson Savarino - Places eight crosses in draw Savarino performed one shot (off-target) and placed eight crosses (one accurate) in Saturday's 1-1 draw with the LA Galaxy.
Impact Savarino was active in creating plays (eight crosses) on Saturday but lacked precision (only one cross accurate) and striking quality (firing just one shot that was off-target). The Venezuelan international got off to a hot start at the Claret and Cobalt when he joined in May from Atletico Mineiro. In June/July he scored five goals and created three assists over a seven game stretch. His recent form has been poor, he has scored just one goal and provided one assist in his last five games. From 18 appearances (16 starts) he has scored six goals and created five assists.

Zac MacMath - Penalty save in draw MacMath managed seven saves (including a penalty) and conceded one in the 1-1 draw with the LA Galaxy on Saturday.
Impact MacMath was a difference maker on Saturday for the Claret and Cobalt. He faced eight on target shots saving seven of them, including a penalty.From 33 appearances (all starts) he has made 100 saves, conceded 44 goals and delivered 10 clean sheets. It has been four matches since his last clean sheet and it is unlikely that stretch will be broken in Real Salt Lake's next game against the Portland Timbers. The Timbers have scored in their last 19 MLS games this season.

Aaron Herrera - Creates assist in draw Herrera performed an assist, two crosses (none accurate), one clearance, two blocked shots, four interceptions and two tackles in Saturday's 1-1 draw with the LA Galaxy.
Impact Herrera had an outstanding game on Saturday making a positive impact in both defense and attack. He delivered a well placed cross for Sergio Cordova to score Real Salt Lake's goal. The defender has made 27 appearances (25 starts), scored no goals, created two assists and delivered 7 clean sheets.

Sergio Cordova - Scores in draw Cordova scored from his only shot on target in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Real Salt Lake. He also executed a cross and a tackle.
Impact Cordova scored an outstanding header on Saturday from a cross delivered by Aaron Herrera. He was subbed after 58 for Anderson Julio. It has been five games since his last goal and he will be hoping to regain the hot form he was in over August when he found the net four times in five games. From 32 appearances (26 starts) he has produced nine goals and one assist.

Bobby Wood - Status unchanged Wood (groin) is out for Saturday's trip to LA Galaxy, according to the Salt Lake injury report.
Impact Wood is out for Saturday's trip to LA Galaxy with a groin injury that has kept him out for multiple months. Wood's looking unlikely to return in 2022, there was a brief period where he was labelled questionable but now he's back to 'out' designations, and has just one more chance to return in 2022.

Damir Kreilach - Ruled out once more Kreilach (back) is out for Saturday's trip to LA Galaxy, per the Salt Lake injury report.
Impact Kreilach is out for Saturday's trip to LA Galaxy with a back injury that has kept him sidelined since April. At this point any chance of returning in the regular season is fading quickly. While he hasn't been giving the season-ending designation yet it's hard to think Kreilach will return in 2022.

Pablo Ruiz - Misses PK versus Cincinnati Ruiz had one shot on goal, created one chance, sent in two crosses (one accurate), made two tackles (both won) and missed a penalty during Saturday's 2-1 loss against Cincinnati.
Impact Ruiz was back at the starting Xi after being an unused substitute on the previous match but couldn't leverage the opportunity. The midfielder wasn't as impactful as he's used to be on the attacking end, and, to make things worse, missed a penalty that would've given his side a 2-1 lead during first half's stoppage time. After a strong start of campaign, Ruiz is having lots of ups and downs as of late and will try to bounce back during Oct. 1 visit to LA Galaxy.
SEPTEMBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Zac MacMath - Allows two against Cincinnati MacMath made one save and conceded two goals during Saturday's 2-1 loss against Cincinnati.
Impact MacMath was beaten once each half here and the first goal was result of a very poor effort from him as the ball slipped through his hands before finding the back of the net. The goalkeeper was also caught out of position on the second goal, but a deflection by a teammate before Brenner picked the ball up made life difficult for him. MacMath had just one save and five goals allowed over the last two outings and will try to bounce back during Oct. 1 visit to LA Galaxy.
