Cristian Roldán

Analysis: Roldan looks to be in question for the USA's upcoming group stage finale, as the midfielder has been dealt a muscle strain. He has yet to play a minute this World Cup, but with some rotation expected next match, this could be a decent loss of depth for the team. They will be unlikely to want to risk Tyler Adams on a yellow card, so Roldan could've been set for some minutes in the holding portion of the midfield, potentially leaving Sebastian Berhalter to see more time on the pitch.

Grabs key assist

Roldan assisted once to go with five shots (one on goal), one cross (one accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw against San Diego FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 57th minute.

Analysis: Roldan was a big factor in the final third with five shots and three chances created, eventually getting an important assist for Seattle in the last phase of the match. The midfielder will need similar volume to have any success in a tough matchup against San Jose Earthquakes, the top team in the West standings. They have a +19 goal differential on the season.
