Toronto FC will play DC United, and the Sounders will play the Vancouver Whitecaps. Chivas USA will host the Montréal Impact, and Sporting KC will play the Chicago Fire. That is the upcoming schedule, and now, let's take a look at my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.

MLS Fantasy Tips

There are some good opportunities for you to get points this round, and one of my top picks is Jermain Defoe. He will play at home against the Chicago Fire, and he will also play against DC United. I think that he will get a goal or two in this round. Another player that I'm looking at is Erick Torres. He had a beautiful goal against Real Salt Lake last week, and I wouldn't bet against him scoring more. I would also suggest getting Obafemi Martins. After serving his one game suspension, I think that he'll play a key attacking part in Seattle's offense, and I think that he might get a goal against the Vancouver Whitecaps. Take a look at the schedule, and also keep an eye on who's playing at home.
