Gonzalo Pineda will hope that success brings further success, as his side look for another win in a row. Their last two outings resulted in victories against Toronto FC and Portland Timbers.

Also, Atlanta’s League position speaks for itself, as they continue their rich vein of winning form. Their last win, was the 1st in a row. With a ninth position in the league and 0 wins, 0 losses and 0 draws, they currently have 36 points in the League.

Atlanta now travel, knowing that their current away form is woeful. So far this season they have won one game, drawn five meetings, and lost nine matches matches on the road.

A win in this fixture, would take Atlanta United’s points from 36 to 39, so far this season.
