Atlanta United vs Inter Miami

Mercedes-Benz Stadium as Atlanta United and Inter Miami lock horns an exciting Major League Soccer encounter.

Since a 4-1 demolition of Chicago Fire at home in early May, Atlanta United have gone winless in three MLS games (D2, L1), falling four points adrift of the Eastern Conference playoff zone. However, they have at least been fun to watch, as their last six MLS matches have seen over 2.5 goals and both teams on the scoresheet. With an average of 3.66 goals per fixture during that six-game sequence, the Mercedes-Benz Stadium crowd would be forgiven for expecting another high-scoring contest. Action could be back and forth, as six of Atlanta’s eight previous MLS meetings with Inter Miami have witnessed both sides scoring.

In the meantime, the visitors have performed in patches lately. After a pair of draws replaced a run of back-to-back defeats, Inter Miami now head into proceedings having won their last two league outings. A flying start could prove crucial for the ‘Herons’ as both those victories saw them open the scoring within 30 minutes and add precisely one second-half strike to the board. However, Phil Neville’s men are not only winless in their last three away MLS fixtures (D1, L2), but they failed to get on the scoresheet on each occasion. In fact, they’ve netted a measly average of 0.5 goals per MLS travel this term.
