Soccer Blog - Week 20

Hello, everybody, and welcome to another article of Super Soccer Ian. It was a long round, but an exciting one, as there were lots of goals scored. Let's get things started by reviewing the most recent results.

Round 19 Results

Things started off with a 3-1 win for the Philadelphia Union over the NY Red Bulls. Then, Sporting KC beat the Columbus Crew 2-1, and Toronto FC tied 1-1 with the Vancouver Whitecaps. The LA Galaxy won 5-1 over the NE Revolution, and the Colorado Rapids lost 2-1 to the Portland Timbers. Sporting KC beat the LA Galaxy 2-1, and the NY Red Bulls tied 1-1 with the SJ Earthquakes. The Columbus Crew beat the Montréal Impact 2-1, and the Chicago Fire tied 1-1 with the Philadelphia
Union. FC Dallas beat the NE Revolution 2-0, and the Houston Dynamo tied 2-2 with Toronto FC. Real Salt Lake tied 1-1 with the Vancouver Whitecaps, and DC United beat Chivas USA 3-1. Those are the most recent results. Now, let's take a look at the upcoming schedule.

Upcoming Schedule

The first game of the next round will be between the SJ Earthquakes and the Chicago Fire. Real Salt Lake will then host the Montréal Impact, and Chivas USA will travel to play the Colorado Rapids. Toronto FC will play Sporting KC, and the NE Revolution will play the Columbus Crew. FC Dallas will travel to play the Vancouver Whitecaps, and the Montréal Impact will host the Portland Timbers. The final game of the round will be between the LA Galaxy and Seattle Sounders. That is the upcoming schedule, and now, let's take a look at my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.

MLS Fantasy Tips

This round will be a shorter one, but there are always point opportunities out there in MLS Fantasy. One player that I think you should try to get on your team is Andrés Escobar on FC Dallas. Normally, he's a reserve player, but he's averaged about six points per game in his last three, and I think that he might get the start against Vancouver. Another smart addition to your squad would be Jeff Larentowicz on Chicago. While the Fire are on the road, the SJ Earthquakes haven't been playing well this year, and he's a guaranteed starter for the Fire. I think that he'll get some points, especially considering that he scored in the last game against the Philadelphia Union. One more player that you could consider is Robbie Keane. Even though the Sounders have been very good lately, I think that he may still get a goal against the Sounders, just because he's done so quite often in the past. Those are my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.
