Those are the upcoming fixtures, and now, let's take a look at my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.

MLS Fantasy Tips

There are some good fixtures and opportunities this round for you to really rack up the fantasy points. One player that I think would be a good choice for this round would be Gyasi Zardes. He's scored eight goals in eight games, and I wouldn't be surprised at all if he gets a goal or two against the Columbus Crew. Another player that I'd suggest getting on your squad is Robbie Keane. He's had another great season, and the Galaxy have been on fire lately, so I wouldn't bet against him getting lots of points against Columbus. I also think that Diego Valeri might be the man to captain this round. He's scored four goals in his last four games, and the NE Revolution have not been playing very well lately. I think that he'll get a good amount of points in that game. Those are my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round. Be sure to take a look at the fixtures, and make your decisions based on the stats, standings, and who's playing at home.
