Winger Luiz Araujo was upgraded to “questionable” on Atlanta United’s injury report issued Wednesday ahead of Saturday’s game against Cincinnati at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Araujo, a Designated Player, suffered a hamstring injury after scoring in the season-opening game against Sporting KC. He rejoined the team’s training Tuesday. Araujo had been listed as “out” for the past five games.
Also listed as questionable were midfielders Emerson Hyndman, who has yet to play this season because he is recovering from ACL surgery performed last summer, and Matheus Rossetto, who suffered a hamstring injury two games ago at D.C. United.
Listed as “out” are striker Josef Martinez (knee), midfielder Ozzie Alonso (knee), winger Machop Chol (leg) and backup goalkeeper Dylan Castanheira (Achilles).
Cincinnati listed Ronald Matarrita (ankle) and Kenneth Vermeer (leg) as “out.”
