REAL SALT LAKE NEWS

Emeka Eneli - Questionable against Austin Eneli (foot) is questionable for Wednesday's clash against Austin, according to the MLS injury report.

Impact Eneli is dealing with foot issues and is questionable for Wednesday's clash against the Verdes. He will likely be a late decision ahead of the game and his potential absence would force a change in the starting lineup. If he has to miss the game, Pablo Ruiz is expected to start in the midfield for the third game in a row for the first time since his long term knee injury.

Despite being in and out of the lineup, the former Columbus Crew man has contributed 39 clearances and eight blocks in seven games played and could be a good source of that type of production if given enough time on the field.
