Suspended for second straight match
Westwood is suspended for a second consecutive match, this time against Cincinnati on Saturday due to yellow card accumulation, following his red card suspension for the Sept. 9 match against Montreal, according to the MLS.
Analysis: Westwood's continued absence extends the opportunity for Luca de la Torre to hold down his spot in the lineup, with Pep Biel also seeing increased set piece opportunities in the meantime. His path back into the squad will now come after this second suspension is served, pushing his return further out than initially expected.
Sent off Saturday
Westwood was shown a red card during the second half of Saturday's match against Houston Dynamo.
Analysis: Westwood was unable to make his usual impact and ended up receiving a second booking for an argument in the weekend's game. This makes the midfielder ineligible for the next MLS visit to Montreal, with his next chance to appear coming Sept. 12 at Cincinnati. Brandt Bronico may bounce back to the starting lineup, and Pep Biel should see his set-piece numbers increased while Westwood is banned.
