Prediction: 1-2
Atlanta United
Audi Field will host Thursday’s MLS game between DC United and Atlanta United, the two teams who sit in the playoffs berth. The capital club aim to extend their unbeaten run to four games and you should know that they managed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last three league matches. All Steve Birnbaum, Derrick Williams, Tyler Miller, Mohanad Jeahze, and Martin Rodriguez are out of contention with injuries, while Honduras defender Andy Najar is pushing for a start.
The Five Stripes, on the other hand, outplayed Inter Miami 5-2 in their last league match, but it has to be noted that Argentina superstar Leo Messi did not play for the Herons. Anyhow, Atlanta United are more of a team than DC United and we predict that the visitors are going to showcase their worth on the field. Midfielder Osvaldo Alonso should be the only absentee in the away team.
