Will Ezequiel Barco be in Atlanta United's (4-1-1) starting 11 for Saturday's game against the L.A. Galaxy (3-2-1) at Stubhub Center?
I thought Barco would be a starter last week when Atlanta United hosted NYCFC. Turns out, I was wrong.
I'm nothing if not stubborn, so I'm going to again say that I think he will be in the starting 11 this week because midfielder/striker Hector Villalba (hamstring) is listed as questionable.
Here goes
Goalkeeper: Brad Guzan.
Right wingback: Julian Gressel, at the position for the sixth consecutive game.
Centerback: Chris McCann, for the second consecutive game. He scored his first goal for Atlanta United last week.
Centerback: Michael Parkhurst, the team’s captain.
Centerback: Leandro Gonzalez Pirez.
Left wingback: Greg Garza, who has been playing with what he says is a completely torn labrum. He scored his first goal of the season last week.
Holding midfielder: Jeff Larentowicz, who will be in the first line of defense against Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Midfielder: Darlington Nagbe, who looked great last week.
Attacking midfielder: Miguel Almiron.
Striker: Ezequiel Barco.
Striker: Josef Martinez, who has five goals in six games.
