Atlanta Utd vs Sporting Kansas CityPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Atlanta United are fifteenth in the Eastern Conference on 18 points from 20 games (5 wins, 3 draws, 12 losses, 23-35) and go into this on a two-game winning run, the latest a 2-1 away win over Minnesota United; on home soil, though, the tally drops to 3 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses, with 13 goals scored and 15 conceded. Sporting Kansas City are fifteenth too, but in the Western Conference, on 15 points (4 wins, 3 draws, 13 losses, 19-49): their last game finished 1-1 at home against St. Louis City, after a 0-2 defeat at Colorado; away from home their record collapses to 2 wins, no draws and 8 losses (7-31). The last five head-to-head meetings remain perfectly balanced, with two wins apiece and a draw completing the picture. As a goals-per-game average, the American league sits at 3.19. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
