Myrto Uzuni

Analysis: Uzuni has been unable to overcome the lower body injury that had left him questionable heading into the final game before the World Cup break, representing a big loss for Austin's front line at an inopportune moment in the campaign. The striker has produced five goals in MLS action this season, leading the squad in that category, and his absence brings an end to a five-game starting run. His situation will be monitored closely during the World Cup break as Austin hope the issue does not prove to be a significant setback heading into the second half of the season.

Doubtful with lower body issue

Uzuni is questionable for Saturday's trip to St. Louis City as he deals with a lower body injury, the team reported Friday.

Analysis: Uzuni could be a big loss for Austin's front line if this problem prevents him from playing in the final game before the World Cup break. The striker has produced five goals in MLS action this season, leading the squad in that category. A serious issue would interrupt his five-game starting run while leading to a chance for CJ Fodrey or the recently recovered Brandon Vazquez to join Christian Ramirez up front.
