Late scratch against St. Louis
Nelson was removed from the starting lineup and didn't play in Sunday's game versus St. Louis City.
Analysis: Nelson has struggled to stay healthy in recent weeks and could now be sidelined for longer if he suffered a setback. However, it remains to be seen if he'll be ready to play in upcoming matches. He has been a decent attacking asset when available, scoring two goals from seven shots (two on goal) in the current MLS season. Jon Gallagher took his place Sunday and should continue to feature on the left wing until Nelson is fully fit.
Starts against Houston
Nelson (lower leg) is in the starting lineup to face Houston Dynamo on Saturday.
Analysis: Nelson was questionable for this game after missing the previous league contest, but he managed to recover from his leg issue in time to see meaningful action. He'll likely play on the left wing, causing Joseph Rosales to move to a central position. Nelson has been rather active in offensive tasks this year but remains with one goal in seven appearances prior to this game.
