Saturday will be the first time Losada faces DC United since being sacked by them in the early portion of last season, and we expect his current side to be extra motivated to deliver him a victory, while their midweek trade should serve as a wake-up call to these veterans to pick up their game.
DC still have not figured out how to create chances, which is unfortunate because Benteke has been a solid attacking presence, but without a midfield general to give him balls in good shooting positions, the Belgian's quality has gone to waste.
