Player to watch: Hany Mukhtar
We are giving Mukhtar a shoutout in our Nashville vs Mazatlan prediction, as the German attacking midfielder is undoubtedly the most important player for the home team. He has been one of the top finishers for Nashville throughout the last couple of campaigns. We are sure he can deliver in 2024 as well.
Second player to watch: Shaquell Moore
The Zimmerman-shaped hole at the back must be filled somehow. Moore will do his best to fill in the gap, but he will have to deliver a grand performance on the 1st of August, as Walker Zimmerman is one of MLS’ finest.
