MLS Fantasy match week six provided a rollercoaster of results. Of the 13 matches that kicked off, six of them ended with the visitor team coming away with points.

Typically, when it comes to MLS fantasy, we here at MLS Multiplex would recommend fading the away team and to focus more on the players who do not have to travel and have the advantage of sleeping in their own bed.

However, with most stadiums still not allowing full attendance, a home-field advantage may not be as impactful as in years past, providing some intriguing away players for a fantasy purpose.

MLS Fantasy Week Seven!

As we head into week seven,  the Vancouver White Caps will rest as they have their first bye of the season. It is also important to be wary of the players who will be away due to international duties this weekend.

Many teams will be without their key players, so make sure to check the starting lineups before each game’s kickoffs, as there has not been 100% confirmation on everyone that will be absent.
