round was a 2-0 win for the Chicago Fire over FC Dallas. Those are the most recent results, so now, let's look at the upcoming schedule.

We have a busy round coming up because four teams will be playing two games. The first matchup will be between the Montréal Impact and the NY Red Bulls. Then, Toronto FC will play Orlando City SC, and the Portland Timbers will host the Chicago Fire. Toronto FC will play against Sporting KC, and Orlando City SC will face the Philadelphia Union. Then, the Montréal Impact will host DC United, and the Colorado Rapids will face the Columbus Crew. The Houston Dynamo will clash with the SJ Earthquakes at BBVA Compass Stadium, and the Vancouver Whitecaps will host Real Salt Lake. The LA Galaxy will play the Seattle Sounders, and the round will finish up with a matchup between the NY Red Bulls and NY City FC. Those are the upcoming matches, and now, let's look at my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.

There were a few players who scored big last week, and the same could definitely happen again, since there are some double headers. One player that you should definitely look at is Pa-Modou Kah. He scored two goals against the Sounders last week, and he got a total of 19 points. Plus, he's only worth $6.8 million right now, so you should get him while he's hot, since his price will rise. Another player to look at right now is Benny Feilhaber. His upcoming schedule looks good, and he's earning a solid eight points per game. He's pricey at $10.5 million, but he'd definitely be worth the money. One last player to consider adding to your squad is Nick DeLeon. He's earned about seven points per game, and DC United's schedule looks favorable. He's only worth $6.6 million right now, so he'd definitely be a good player to have for little money. Those are my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.
