Listed to bench

Palacios (lower body) is on the bench for Friday's match against Atlanta.

Analysis: Palacios is back fit but is not yet ready for starting time, as he only resides on the bench to face Atlanta. This is likely as they are cautious with his return, not wanting to lose him longer, just as they resume play. However, he is a typical starter with 11 starts in 11 appearances, likely to return to the starting XI soon.

Added to injury report

Palacios is questionable for Friday's match against Atlanta due to a lower-body injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.

Analysis: Palacios is going to need some testing ahead of Friday's contest, as the defender is now dealing with a lower-body injury. This would be a significant loss for the team, as he has started in all but three games this season. That said, if fit, he will hope to start. However, they may have to turn to Jack Maher if Palacios is out or on the bench.
