Key lineup decisions

Right back: The question isn't who plays the two full back positions, but more who plays on which side. The big question: the right side. It's been eons since Tony Beltran played on the left side, but he's been deployed there before. Alternately, Jordan Allen is talented enough to play on the left, but he's usually played on the left because he can come inside a bit more easily — and that's in attack.

Center back: Is Jeff Cassar ready to give Chris Schuler minutes, or are there continued fitness and medical concerns that could keep him out? Will he be ready to play 90 minutes, or will we see Phanuel Kavita alongside Aaron Maund?

Forwards: Will RSL continue with the same effective setup, or will we see another switch in the shape to accommodate something? It's hard to see a change right now, but it does leave the bench a little thin — only Devon Sandoval will be on the bench, and he's not an impact sub — he's a much better player from the start.
