Hello, everybody, and welcome back to another article of Super Soccer Ian! This recent round was an exciting one, with some rivalry matches, and some big wins and losses. Let's get things started by reviewing the most recent results.

The first match of the round was a 2-1 win for DC United over Orlando City SC. Then, New York City FC tied 2-2 with the Chicago Fire, and FC Dallas tied 0-0 with the NY Red Bulls. The Montréal Impact won 4-1 over Real Salt Lake, and the Seattle Sounders got a 2-0 win over the Vancouver Whitecaps on the road.

was a late 1-0 win for the Philadelphia Union over DC United. Those are the most recent results, and now, let's take a look at the upcoming schedule.

This next round will start with a matchup between Sporting KC and the NE Revolution. Then, the Columbus Crew will play the Chicago Fire, and the LA Galaxy will host the Houston Dynamo. Then, Toronto FC will play the Portland Timbers, and the NE Revolution will face off at home against DC United. The Montréal Impact will play FC Dallas, and the Colorado Rapids will host the Vancouver Whitecaps. Real Salt Lake will play New York City FC, and the Seattle Sounders and Sporting KC will face off at CenturyLink Field. The NY Red Bulls will face the Philadelphia Union, and the SJ Earthquakes will host Orlando City SC. Those are the upcoming matches, and now, let's take a look at my MLS Fantasy tips.

Because of the double-headers and some of the good matchups, I think that there are lots of opportunities to get points and climb higher up the standings table. One player that I think might be good to get on your team is Axel Sjöberg on the Colorado Rapids. He's been playing consistently lately, earning about five points per game. Plus, he's only worth $4.7 million, meaning that he'd be an excellent player to either have on your bench or put onto your starting backline. Another player to consider would be Chris Wondolowski. He's a very dangerous striker up top as we know it, and his upcoming schedule looks good. I think that he'll likely get some goals and/or assists in the upcoming games. One more player to consider adding onto your squad is Chad Barrett. He had a great game against the Vancouver Whitecaps, and he'll likely play at home against Sporting KC, since Obafemi Martins is out with a tibia injury. I wouldn't bet against him scoring a goal or maybe getting an assist of two in the upcoming matchup between the Sounders and Sporting KC. Those are my MLS Fantasy tips for the next round in MLS.
