Soccer Blog - Week 28

Hello, everybody, and welcome back to the newest article of Super Soccer Ian. It was a short and somewhat dull round recently, but excitement is guaranteed next round, since several teams will have double-headers, and no teams will have byes. Let's get things started by reviewing the most recent match results.

The first match of the round was a 2-1 win for the NY Red Bulls over the Montréal Impact. Then, the Vancouver Whitecaps tied 0-0 with FC Dallas, and the Colorado Rapids lost 1-0 to the Montréal Impact. Those are the most recent results, so now, let's take a peek at the upcoming schedule.

The next round will begin with a matchup between Toronto FC and the NY Red Bulls. Then, FC

Dallas will play the Vancouver Whitecaps, and Real Salt Lake will face the Portland Timbers. Orlando City SC will host NY City FC, and the SJ Earthquakes will playa against Sporting KC. The Columbus Crew will travel to play Toronto FC, and the NE Revolution and Montréal Impact will face off. Then, Real Salt Lake hosts FC Dallas, and DC United will face the Chicago Fire. The NY Red Bulls and Philadelphia Union will face off at Red Bull Arena, and the Houston Dynamo will play the Seattle Sounders. The match will conclude with matches between the LA Galaxy and Portland Timbers, and Sporting KC versus the Colorado Rapids. That's the upcoming schedule, so now, let's look at my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.

Because of the fact that there are plenty of double-headers, this could be your lucky round. One player that you should keep under your radar right now is Sacha Kljestan. In his last three games, he's earned seven points in each game, and I think that the Red Bulls' schedule looks favorable. Another player to take a look at is Evan Bush. He's earned an average of six points per game in his last three, and I think that for just $5.5 million he's a great deal. He may not have a double-header, but he's definitely a solid starter, or maybe a good backup goalkeeper for your team. One more player that I'd recommend adding to your squad is Matt Hedges. FC Dallas has had good defense lately, and he's definitely their main man on the backline. Not only that, but he could definitely get forward and score some aerial goals for his team. I think that he'd be a great defender to have on your fantasy squad. Those are my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.
