Starts to face Atlanta Tagseth (lower body) is in the starting XI for Friday's match against Atlanta.

Impact Tagseth is back in the team sheet despite some claims of him being questionable, as the midfielder is ready to start following a lower-body injury.

Remains questionable Tagseth is questionable for Friday's match against Atlanta due to a lower-body injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.

Impact Tagseth has been dealing with lower-body issues since before the World Cup break and has now returned to the report in questionable territory rather than out, which is encouraging progress even if full clearance hasn't come. He's been a key pressing presence in Nashville's midfield and a player whose energy and work rate affect how the club generates pressure going forward. After five games out, he will hope for the return, with Bryan Acosta and Matthew Corcoran likely to start in the defensive midfield instead if Tagseth is not yet fit or starts from the bench,

Impact Tagseth will likely miss a longer period with the injury he picked up during an April 28 match against Tigres in CONCACAF Champions Cup action. The midfielder was a key player before the issue, and his loss hurts the squad in terms of ball recovery and possession. Given that Patrick Yazbek (quadriceps) is also sidelined, Matthew Corcoran and Bryan Acosta might start in central midfield for now.

Set for time out Tagseth is out for the time being due to a lower-body injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.

Impact Tagseth is a new addition to Nashville's report alongside Sam Surridge, giving the club two significant new absences heading into the weekend. He's been a key midfield contributor for Nashville, and his absence reduces their ability to press and create in the middle of the park. Fantasy managers who have invested in Nashville's attacking players should note that the club is now dealing with multiple fresh injury concerns. Matthew Corcoran and Patrick Yazbek will likely start in the midfield with Tagseth out.
