Steven Moreira - Starting Saturday Moreira (not injury related) is in the starting lineup Saturday against Sporting Kansas City.

Impact Moreira is back in action after missing the season opener due to the loss of a family member. The defender will operate within a three-man central defense alongside Rudy Camacho and Malte Amundsen, so he could be relied on for clearances and some accurate passes if his team holds meaningful possession.

Ibrahim Aliyu - Back in full training Aliyu (thigh) has returned to full training and could be an option for Saturday's clash against Sporting Kansas City, according to Brianna Mac Kay from Dispatch.

Impact Aliyu has returned to full training after missing the last match against Portland due to a thigh injury and could be an option for Saturday's clash against Sporting Kansas City. He is expected to have a bench role, so his potential return should not impact the starting XI moving forward.

Impact Moreira is back in training after missing the last match against Portland and could be an option for Saturday's clash against Sporting Kansas City. The defender, who started the final 12 matches of last season, is likely to slot into the back three alongside Rudy Camacho and Malte Amundsen if he is available.

Dylan Chambost - Out two to three weeks Chambost (hamstring) is expected to miss the next two to three weeks, according to Brianna Mac Kay of Dispatch Alerts.

Impact Chambost is going to miss some time over the next few weeks, expected to miss two to three weeks due to his hamstring injury. This is a rough loss for the club, as they will now be without a starter for at least two games. This will force a change, with Sean Zawadzki likely to move to the midfield while Steven Moreira starts in the defense.

Amar Sejdic - 10 crosses in season opener Sejdic recorded one shot (zero on goal), 10 crosses (one accurate) and seven corners in Saturday's 3-2 defeat against Portland Timbers.

Impact Sejdic subbed onto the pitch in the 25th minute Saturday after Dylan Chambost (hamstring) was forced off. Sejdic made the most of his opportunity, leading the team with 10 crosses and seven corners. Despite that high volume he only created one chance, but it was still a solid day for him. Depending on how serious Chambost's injury is, Sejdic could find himself in the starting XI Saturday at Sporting Kansas City.

Diego Rossi - Scores in season opener Rossi scored one goal to go with five shots (two on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 defeat to Portland Timbers.

Impact Rossi scored an outside-the-box strike in the 44th minute Saturday, a strike assisted by Wessam Abou Ali that tied the match at 2-2 heading into halftime. It was one of five shots he took and he also created one chance in his full 90 minutes of action. He's set to be the focal point of Columbus' attack this season, so it's no surprise that he started the 2026 campaign with a goal.

Wessam Abou Ali - Goal and assist Saturday Abou Ali scored one goal and assisted once from three shots and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 defeat to Portland Timbers. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 58th...

Impact Abou Ali started the 2026 season on a high note, scoring the opening goal in the 6th minute and then assisting Diego Rossi's strike in the 44th minute. He scored three goals in five appearances last season prior to his ankle injury, so it's no surprise that he's back firing now that he's healthy. He figures to play a very important role on the Crew's attack this season.

Patrick Schulte - Concedes three in season opener Schulte had three saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-2 defeat versus Portland Timbers.

Impact Schulte's season did not get off to a good start as he conceded three goals, including Ariel Lassiter's match-winner in the 88th minute. He also made three saves in the season opener. He'll look to bounce back Saturday at Sporting Kansas City.

Lassiter scores winner, Chará sets records as Timbers open season with 3-2 victory over Crew

Ariel Lassiter had the only goal of the second half and Portland beat the Columbus Crew 3-2 in a season opener, topping off a record-setting night for the Timbers’ Diego Chará

Dylan Chambost - Forced off Saturday Chambost suffered an apparent hamstring injury during the first half of Saturday's visit to Portland Timbers, according to Massive Report.

Impact Chambost was replaced by Amar Sejdic after being unable to continue early in the game. The Frenchman is now at risk of missing upcoming contests if a serious muscle issue is confirmed. That would lead to a tough situation for the club considering that he was a key piece of their midfield last season, scoring twice and delivering five assists over 37 appearances.
