Coming off just two days rest rather than the normal three, Minnesota United would have a tough task on hand. With Fragapane, Hansen, and Lod out three of the Loons primary attacking pieces we’re now out of the mix. The combination of the two led Heath to shift from the usual 4-2-3-1 to his backup 4-3-3 formation.
With Reynoso, Hunou, and Finlay up top then Dotson, Trapp, and Gregus in the midfield Heath placed his best options on the pitch. Backing them up would be DJ Taylor (replacing Gasar), Dibassy, Kallman, and Metanire along with Miller in goal.
