Starts against Columbus
Rowles (thigh) is in the starting lineup for the midweek clash versus Columbus Crew.
Analysis: Rowles has regained full fitness after spending the past four MLS games on the sidelines, and he's apparently ready to see plenty of minutes on the field. His return leaves Sean Nealis in a bench role while possibly pushing Andre Dozzell to midfield. Prior to his injury, Rowles featured as a regular starter, leading the league with an average of 7.4 clearances per game.
Out with thigh injury
Rowles is out for Saturday's game against Montreal due to a thigh injury.
Analysis: Rowles has been a starter in every game he's been available for this season, but he'll have to miss the weekend's clash -- it's just his third absence of the campaign. Rowles has 118 clearances, 28 tackles and 24 interceptions in 17 league starts this season, so his absence will be greatly felt at the back. Sean Nealis could step in as his replacement.
