Bill Hamid, D.C. United’s starting goalkeeper, will miss five to six weeks with a hamstring injury suffered in the first half Wednesday in Columbus, Coach Hernán Losada said Friday.

Jon Kempin, a career backup who has started three times this year, is expected to replace Hamid, beginning Sunday night against CF Montreal at Audi Field. Chris Seitz (four starts) would move into the No.
