#3 Michael Barrios – $7.5M – Average Points: 5.17

Coming in at number three is Michael Barrios of the Colorado Rapids. The Columbian Midfielder has scored a total of 17 fantasy points between the last two weeks and scored a goal against LAFC in his latest appearance.


Expect Barrios to continue his excellent form this weekend as the Colorado Rapids will be matched up against FC Dallas. Barrios played five seasons with FC Dallas before being traded to the Rapids this season. Look for him to come out with a ton of energy and cause havoc to his old team on the offensive side of the ball.

FC Dallas is currently last in the Western Conference and has allowed four goals in their two away games this season.

Barrios is currently only owned by 1.3% of all MLS fantasy managers.
