Samuel Piette News: Starting Saturday

Piette (upper body) is in the initial lineup for Saturday's clash with St. Louis City.

Piette will return from an injury that left him out of the previous five MLS matches, regaining his usual spot in central midfield. He has been involved mostly in defensive stats this year, with his average of 1.4 interceptions per game ranking first on the squad. His inclusion will cause Olger Escobar to be on the bench for the weekend duel.
