Robert Beric – $8.7 M –  Average Points: 4.6

Coming in at number four this week is Robert Beric from Chicago Fire. With many of the top strikers having high listing prices or being on the road in a poor matchup, Beric is a strong fallback option. He has a favoring match-up against Inter Miami and allows you to free up some cap space.

Chicago Fire has struggled in the last four games, but they will back on their home pitch, a place where they have an average of 1.6 expected goals.

Beric has failed to put the ball in the back of the net since match week one. However, the Slovenian is still averaging 3.2 shots a game and had five shot-creating actions last week against DC United on the road.

On top of that, Inter Miami has allowed nine goals this season and have given up two in both of their games last week.

Beric is currently only owned by 2.25% of all MLS fantasy managers.
