Ruled out Saturday Burki (quad) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Austin.

Impact Burki has been unable to get the green light despite being listed as questionable with the quad concern, confirming his absence and representing one of the more impactful status updates on the entire Saturday report given his importance as St. Louis's starting goalkeeper. His unavailability forces the coaching staff to turn to Ben Lundt between the posts, with the backup option now tasked with stepping up in the absence of his first-choice counterpart. Burki's situation will be monitored closely in the coming days as St. Louis hope the quad issue proves to be a short-term setback rather than a prolonged absence heading into the next stretch of the MLS season.

Late call due to injury Burki is listed as questionable moving forward with a quad injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.

Impact Burki is a new addition to St. Louis's report this matchday with a quad issue, which is a concerning development given his importance as their starting goalkeeper. A goalkeeper with a quad concern in questionable territory is one of the more impactful status updates on the entire Saturday report, as his absence would force St. Louis to rely on a backup option, Ben Lundt. That said, if Burki is out, expect Lundt to get the start Saturday.

No further details have been provided regarding the nature or severity of the injury at this stage.

Four saves in draw Burki registered four saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against D.C. United.

Impact Burki came up with four saves in Saturday's 1-1 road draw at D.C. United, standing tall early to keep St. Louis alive before Christopher Durkin finally broke through in the 50th minute to put the hosts in front, though Peglow delivered a dramatic 90th minute equalizer to steal a point late. He also had to navigate Conrad Wallem's 92nd minute red card, which made an already tense stoppage-time push even tougher, ending the night with four saves on five shots on target faced. Burki now sits on 40 saves and one clean sheet through 13 MLS starts and will aim to carry this momentum into Saturday's matchup against Austin, their final game before the World Cup break.

Three saves in win Burki had three saves and allowed one goal in Wednesday's 2-1 win versus Los Angeles Football Club.

Impact Burki came up with three saves in Wednesday's 2-1 home win over LAFC, headlined by a game-saving stop in the 81st minute when he went full extension to his right to deny Aaron Long's deflected effort from point-blank range, preserving St. Louis' lead and ultimately locking up the result as LAFC threw numbers forward late. He did get beaten in the 73rd minute by David Martinez's lob after coming off his line, though the read was justified given the pace on Nkosi Tafari's through ball. Burki now sits on 36 saves with one clean sheet across 12 MLS appearances and will look to carry that momentum into Saturday's matchup against D.C. United.

MAY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Rough outing against Seattle Burki made five saves and allowed four goals in Saturday's 4-1 loss versus Seattle Sounders FC.

Impact Burki struggled in net Saturday as he was peppered with shots in the loss, doing well to stop five saves but allowing four in the rough loss.

Three saves in loss Burki had three saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Los Angeles Football Club.

Impact Burki made three saves in Saturday's loss against LAFC and helped keep the game scoreless through the first half as St. Louis controlled possession and limited LAFC to just one shot on target.

The dam finally broke in the 73rd minute when Mathieu Choiniere buried a strike from outside the box, and Burki was beaten again eight minutes later by another low Choiniere finish from distance. There was little he could do about either shot given their quality and placement, but he will look to bounce back in Saturday's matchup against New England after opening the season with zero clean sheets through four games.

The former Dortmund goalkeeper will aim to bounce back in the next match, but it's a tough one against Seattle at home on March 7.

Impact Burki couldn't do much when Oleksandr Svatok appeared in front of him to head home a corner kick in the 36th minute but, other than that, didn't have much work to do, which denied him a chance of putting up some fantasy numbers to make up for the goal allowed. The veteran goalkeeper started the year with three straight clean sheets but had a fractured hand that kept him out for a couple months and could never be the same after his return, with just one more clean sheet over 21 starts.
