DC United are missing Adrien Perez, who has refractured the foot he injured last July that kept him out for three months last year. They will also be without Moses Nyeman, who has a thigh injury. Chris Odoi-Atsem is absent with an ankle injury. Teal Bunbury is absent due to a knock to his right knee. Robert Castellanos has a fractured ankle. Randall Leal will also miss out due to an ankle issue.
Nashville currently sit in sixth position in the Western Conference, and will be hoping to recover from their defeat to SKC last time out. Seeing as they could potentially climb up to fourth place with a victory, they will be determined to turn things around against a DC United side that are in awful form and plummeting down the table. DC United lost to bottom placed Chicago Fire last time out, and may well drop below them by the end of this weekend. 1:3
