New EnglandUnused sub in loss
Ceballos was an unused substitute in Wednesday's 3-0 loss to Nashville SC.
Analysis: Ceballos missed his fifth consecutive match, although he has been available off the bench in each of the last two matches. While the Revs look to be playing it safe with their center back, he could reenter the lineup as soon as Saturday's home clash with Minnesota United.
Ready to play
Ceballos (thigh) is expected to return to the field Saturday against Philadelphia Union, with coach Marko Mitrovic saying "Both Matt [Polster] and Brayan [Ceballos] had a full week of training with the team. They're good to go this weekend.", Caleb Pongratz of Prost Soccer reports.
Analysis: Ceballos has trained with the team and could finally see game action following a three-week absence. The defender was a regular starter earlier this season, tallying 29 clearances, nine interceptions, seven tackles and 12 blocks over six matches played. He'll look to replace Ethan Kohler at center-back as soon as he's cleared for significant minutes.
Could return soon
Ceballos (thigh) is not dealing with a major injury and is considered day-to-day, according to manager Marko Mitrovic, per Seth Macomber of the Blazing Musket. "It's not a long-term injury, and we will have Brayan back very soon."
Analysis: Ceballos suffered an injury ahead of the club's midweek match, but luckily looks unlikely to miss too much time, as the injury has been deemed minor. This could leave a return in the club's next few matches, set for two league matches and a Cup match in the next two weeks. He is their lead defender, so they await his return, hopefully only missing the single match.
Picks up injury
Ceballos is listed as questionable for Wednesday's match against Atlanta with a lower-body injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.
Analysis: Ceballos had to leave the field in the last match early with an injury, picking up a lower-body concern that has him in uncertain territory for Wednesday. He's a younger player who has shown some promise for the Revolution without yet establishing himself as a must-start fantasy option. That said, if fit, he will likely start, although Petron Miller could be a potential backup if Ceballos is out.
