Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta, USA
Atlanta United is back playing at home after playing 3 straight league games away from home. All 3 games ended in a poor result and Atlanta United hope to prove they can do better at home. Atlanta will host New York City at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and they hope to win. For New York City, they are hardly interesting to watch, which makes it difficult to see them walking out of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium with a win. Even if they did, it would be down to luck, because their stats are also poor. New York City managed a goalless draw in their last game and a defeat before that, clearly they need a win in this game against Atlanta United.
The latest eastern conference table shows New York City is 5th with 36 points, while Atlanta United is 11th with 24 points.

Atlanta’s current situation needs no further explanation and they have to be coming into this upcoming game to win, as anything less of that would be a disappointment. Atlanta United lost their last 3 games in a row and they have been hardly consistent since the start of the season. They turn their attention to New York City, who will be visiting the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and they hope they can break the losing streak in this match.

New York City FC
There isn’t any interesting record for New York City except the obvious fact that they haven’t lost as much as Atlanta United. They have been inconsistent this season and they confirmed that in their last 2 matches. After recording back-to-back wins against Orlando City and CF Montreal earlier this month, New York City fell back to a defeat last week and then drew their last match against Chicago Fire earlier this week.

Expert Betting Options
Atlanta United and New York City have to be among the poorest attacking teams at the moment and it’s clearly reflecting on the teams stats in recent games. Atlanta United are on a horrible run, which almost makes them look like losers in the upcoming game even before the game even started. However, New York City are not doing a good job in attacking areas either which makes them as dull as the Atlanta United team. I think both goalkeepers will manage to keep both teams quiet by not conceding multiple goals or any for that matter.
