It's officially game week for Orlando City Soccer Club. The Major League Soccer regular season kicks off Saturday and the Lions will play host to the New York Red Bulls. In the lead up to Saturday's season opener, it's time to break down each of the Lions' position groups heading into 2023.

Let's take a look at the fullbacks. Long-time starters Ruan and Joao Moutinho both left the club this offseason, leaving a massive void on the outside of the backline. Orlando brought in a handful of new faces and will hope for some internal growth to replace the departed duo.

Here's a breakdown of all the outside backs on Orlando's current first team roster heading into the 2023 MLS regular season.
