Starting Sunday
Gomes (calf) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against New York City FC.
Analysis: Gomes is back in the mix Sunday after a few weeks out due to a calf issue, wasting no time finding the starting XI. He has now started in all six appearances this season and is keen to keep the role, although he has already served two injury stints this campaign.
Won't face Philadelphia
Gomes will be given more time to recover from a calf issue, with coach Henrik Rydstrom commenting that he doesn't want to risk the player suffering a bigger injury, Brianna Mac Kay of the Columbus Dispatch reports.
Analysis: Gomes is set for a longer absence, and it's unclear exactly how many more weeks he'll miss after being left out of the previous match against LA Galaxy. The midfielder had been a major participant in the team's possessions while racking up diverse output in the five MLS games he played after transferring from French side Lille. All of Dylan Chambost, Taha Habroune and perhaps Sekou Bangoura could be active in the central midfield rotation until the Portuguese is ready to return.
