Steve Clark - Gives up three goals Saturday Clark had no saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-0 defeat versus St. Louis City SC.

Impact Clark had a game to forget, as St. Louis City found the back of the net every time they attempted a shot on target. However, and to be fair with Clark, there wasn't much he could've done in any of the three goals he conceded. Clark will try to bounce back in the final game of the regular season against the Galaxy on Oct. 19.

Sebastian Kowalczyk - Takes two shots in loss Kowalczyk registered two shots (one on goal), eight crosses (one accurate) and six corners in Saturday's 3-0 defeat to St. Louis City SC.

Impact Kowalczyk was one of the few decent performers for the Dynamo in a game where the team was outplayed on both sides of the ball. He has gone five straight starts without finding the back of the net, but since he's averaging 2.0 shots per match in that span, it wouldn't be surprising if the midfielder finds the back of the net sooner rather than later.

Griffin Dorsey - Sends nine crosses Saturday Dorsey generated one shot (zero on goal), nine crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 loss to St. Louis City SC.

Impact Even though only one of Dorsey's crosses was accurate, it generated one of Houston's best chances to score throughout the game. Despite the loss, Dorsey was a constant attacking threat for the Dynamo, and his two-way value should remain in display when Houston takes on the Galaxy on Oct. 19 in the final match of the regular season.

Franco Escobar - Suspended once again Escobar will miss the Oct. 19 match against the Galaxy due to suspension.

Impact Escobar has been a steady presence at the back for Houston this season, but he's been earning suspensions quite often of late -- in fact, the match against the Galaxy will be the second one he'll miss through suspension since the beginning of September. The Dynamo are on the verge of locking up a playoff berth on Decision Day, so expect Escobar to return to his regular role on defense in the postseason.

Amine Bassi - Added to injury report Bassi (foot) is questionable for Saturday's trip to St. Louis, per the MLS injury report.

Impact Bassi was added to the injury report with a questionable tag after playing just 45 minutes last time out. The attacking midfielder is a locked-in part of the starting XI, and an obvious loss when on the sideline. He should continue in a large role moving forward if fit to close the season.

Ezequiel Ponce - Bench option against New England Ponce (hamstring) is on the bench for Wednesday's clash versus New England Revolution.

Impact Ponce returns after being sidelined for one week with a minor issue. Before that, he started seven games in a row, tallying 19 shots (10 on target) and three goals over that period. He should now be a strong contender to lead the front line over both Sebastian Kowalczyk and Sebastian Ferreira in upcoming matchups.

Impact Clark allowed one goal while making two saves in the defeat against Seattle. Despite the loss, the goalkeeper has been on a good run lately, allowing one goal or fewer in seven consecutive matches. He'll aim to keep that going against New England, a team with 33 goals in 30 games.
