MLS Fantasy Tips
There are quite a few byes in this upcoming week, meaning that some of the current stars will not be earning the points for you. One player that I'm seriously looking at for this next round is Benny Feilhaber. He will be playing at home against the Portland Timbers, and I think that he will definitely put in an assist or two, and maybe even a goal. He's sort of pricey at $9.2 million, but I think that he would definitely be worth the money. Another player that I'm looking at is Octavio Rivero. He will be playing on the road, but he has been consistent so far, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him put in a goal or two against Orlando. One more player to consider would be David Villa. He had an excellent last game, and I think that he will continue to be a point-scoring playmaker in the upcoming games. Those are my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.
Question of the Week: Which college did Sporting KC midfielder Benny Feilhaber attend?
