Absent from injury report
Nwobodo (ankle) carries no injury designation for Wednesday's clash with New England, per the MLS Injury Report.
Analysis: Nwobodo doesn't have an injury designation and is expected to be fully fit for Wednesday's clash. The midfielder is back from an ankle injury and has been training in the lead up to this match. When fit he offers valuable skill and composure to the center of the park.
Expected to be available Wednesday
Nwobodo (ankle) is expected to be fine after suffering an injury during Saturday's 3-1 win over Atlanta United, according to coach Pat Noonan, per Laurel Pfahler.
Analysis: Nwobodo picked up an ankle injury against Atlanta and was scheduled for further evaluation Monday, but the latest update suggests the issue is not serious. The defensive midfielder has been a regular starter for Cincinnati this season, providing an important presence in the center of the pitch. He appears on track to be available against New England on Wednesday, although his participation will depend on his recovery over the coming days.
