Prediction: 1-1
Nashville
Atlanta United and Nashville go head to head at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in a highly-anticipated MLS game. The Five Stripes are undefeated in the previous three league fixtures, but the game against Nashville will be anything but a walk in the park for the home team. It has to be noted that all Adams, Barco, Chol, Damm, Franco, and Kann have been struggling with injuries of late.
Gary Smith’s troops, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Austin. Nashville have yet to suffer a loss in the 2021 MLS campaign, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the trip to Georgia. Anyhow, the two teams seem to be evenly matched at the moment, and we are tempted to put our money on draw. All Anunga, Danladi, and Rios are likely to miss the game with injuries for the visiting team.
