Breaking Down the XI | Pereyra Starts

It’s Rivalry Week in MLS and tonight Orlando City hosts Atlanta United at Exploria Stadium.

James O’Connor has a new weapon to play with as recent acquisition Mauricio Pereyra has been inserted into the starting lineup.

In goal, Brian Rowe will look to continue his incredible stretch of form. Rowe has made multiple key saves in Orlando’s recent string of strong defensive performances.

In front of him, Kamal Miller, Robin Jansson, Lamine Sané, and Kyle Smith will form the backline. This group of four has performed well in the absence of João Moutinho and Ruan.

In the defensive midfield, Uri Rosell and Carlos Ascues will pair up again.
