NYCFC will be without Miguel Camargo, Maxime Chanot and James Sands for Saturday evening's crucial showdown with Chicago Fire.
Ronald Matarrita came through his first game since his foot fracture unscathed on Wednesday night in Montreal and is fit to face the Fire, and so too is Yangel Herrera who made a late cameo in Canada.
It's hoped Chanot will return from his injury after October’s international break, while Camargo is out for the rest of the season.
Sands will also miss the game as he has joined up with U.
