As Orlando City start their Leagues Cup journey tonight, the lineup for tonight against the Houston Dynamo has dropped.

Head coach Oscar Pareja makes just one change to the starting lineup tonight, with Martin Ojeda switching in for Mauricio Pereyra, who does not dress for the game. 

On the bench, newly signed Homegrown goalkeeper Javier Otero will be available, along with his Orlando City B teammate Juninho. 

Also available off the bench is rookie defender Abdi Salim, who is back after a two-month absence due to injury.
