Set for ban
Atuesta generated one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-2 draw against New York City FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 86th minute and is set for a one match suspension.
Analysis: With Atuesta picking up his eighth yellow card of the season, he is set to serve another suspension for yellow card accumulation. He has featured in the lineup in each of the last five MLS matches, recording five crosses, eight clearances, six tackles and six chances created during that span. Luis Otavio is expected to be the top choice to replace him in the starting XI during Wednesday's trip to Chicago
Option to face Chicago
Atuesta (thigh) is on the bench in Wednesday's clash with Chicago Fire.
Analysis: Atuesta's return is great news for an Orlando midfield that is missing both Martin Ojeda (thigh) and Braian Ojeda (foot) and currently starting Wilder Cartagena alongside Luis Otavio. After being sidelined in two of the last three MLS games, Atuesta will try to regain momentum as a substitute before bouncing back to a primary role. If that happens in the next few contests, his value will come from pass accuracy and tackling numbers.
