With a sterling record in net at Allianz Field, Minnesota United's Dayne St. Clair if a good fantasy choice in Week 14.| USA Today Sports


Dayne St. Clair is the only active starting goalkeeper averaging more than six fantasy points per game and he wraps the regular season up with a pair of winnable home games versus Chicago and Dallas. Heā€™ll look to add to his impressive resume at Allianz Field, where heā€™s kept a clean sheet in four of his six appearances this season.

Walker Zimmerman has been a model of consistency for both Nashville SC and fantasy managers this season. Heā€™s scored six or more points in nine consecutive appearances, and his 119 total points are more than even the top scoring forwards have this year. Expect another strong showing from Zimmerman with the expansion side jockeying for playoff positioning this week.

With the Seattle Sounders playing twice this week, Nico Lodeiro could be in line for a big fantasy week.| USA Today Sports


Itā€™s only fitting Nico Lodeiro claims the top spot for the final week of the season. He did not disappoint with a 12-point effort last week and he has a pair of inviting matchups to target in Week 14. The Uruguayan playmaker has been a mainstay in fantasy lineups all season and that should be no different with the LA Galaxy and San Jose Earthquakes on tap to close things out.

Forwards


Diego Rossi took six shots and added another goal in a Week 13 that was cut short for LAFC. He leads the Golden Boot race by two goals heading into the final week of the regular season -- and with the likes of Gyasi Zardes, Raul Ruidiaz and Cristian Pavon hot on his heels -- look for Rossi to see multiple chances come his way in juicy matchups with San Jose and Portland.
