Atlanta Utd vs Nashville SC Match Preview

Atlanta United is ranked at 8th place with 27 points and comes in a great run after four consecutive wins and a draw over the last five matches. This has helped them, not only climb in ranks but also have the same amount of points as the 7th spot which is the last one that gives a ticket for the playoffs.

With 25 goals scored they have the best offensive side from the bottom half teams and in the last five matches they have scored a total of nine goals, averaging almost two goals per game, while managing to find the back of the net in each encounter. Moreno (7 goals - 3 assists) and Martinez (6 goals - 1 assist) have been leading their attack and should play once again from the start.

Nashville SC, on the other hand, is ranked at 4th place with 32 points and comes after a single win three draws, and a loss over the last five matches. Being also one game short they still can sit in a comfortable position into the playoff zone but soon enough they need to start winning more games and in a direct duel like this one it would be worth double.

With 32 goals they have the third-best offensive side in the Eastern Conference and in the last five matches they have scored a total of eight goals while managing to find the back of the net on four occasions. For them Sapong (9 goals - 3 assists) and Mukhtar 98 goals - 7 assists) are the ones providing the most for the team and they will have to rely once again on them.

In conclusion, I think this match can have over 2.5 goals. Atlanta United has found great momentum and being at home scoring a goal is a minimum I expect from them. Nashville SC plays offensive football and I expect them to push forward despite coming after some negative results. Four of their last five h2h games had over 2.5 goals.
