#3 Hany Mukhtar – $9.0M – Average Points: 5.40

Hany Mukhtar is a great MLS fantasy pick-up in the midfield this week.

More from MLS Multiplex

Despite not scoring a goal recently, the German international is averaging seven fantasy points in the last three weeks and has been extremely active in the attack.

In that time frame, he has recorded ten key passes, nine crosses, and nine shots.

Nashville SC is preparing to battle Atlanta United at home this week. United will be without three of their starting defenders due to the Gold Cup, including their keeper, Brad Guzan.

Therefore, if Mukhtar can maintain his offensive presence, he will likely be involved in multiple scoring chances.

Mukhtar is currently only owned by 2.57% of all MLS fantasy managers.
