Atlanta United stats & current form
Last season Atlanta United suffered only four defeats in their 23 regular season games, but the "Five Stripes" missed the play-offs and had to deal with a major setback. In the run-up to the 2020 MLS season, Atlanta United was at least one of the narrow circle of title favorites.

For the first time since 2017, the top club from Atlanta missed the play-offs. Before that, the "Five Stripes" were able to qualify for the play-offs three times in a row. Atlanta even won the championship in the 2018 season, and a year later they won the US Open Cup. As expected, there was also a change of coach after the weak last season.

However, Atlanta United had to cancel the sails in the premier class against the MLS competitor from Philadelphia. Since then, the focus has shifted back to the national competition, where Heinze's team is fifth in the table after six match days. So far there has been a record of 2-3-1, both victories were won by Atlanta at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Neither Chicago Fire (3: 1) nor Club de Foot Montreal (1: 0) could score against the strong home franchise from Atlanta. Atlanta United is now aiming for a third home win in a row against Nashville. Last season the "Five Stripes” were able to prevail 2-0 against their upcoming opponents, but the squad of guests has changed considerably since then.

Nevertheless, we think a prognosis for the hosts in the upcoming game between Atlanta United and Nashville is obvious. Under Heinze, the fifth in the Eastern Conference showed promising approaches.

Nashville - stats & current form
Nashville SC took seventh place in the table in the premier season in the MLS and was thus able to qualify for the play-offs. In the play-in round, the MLS newcomer prevailed 1-0 in extra time against Toronto FC and thus bought the ticket for the Conference semifinals, where Nashville had to give up, however.

Nashville got off to a promising start to the current season, after all, there was not a single defeat for the surprise team of the Eastern Conference in the first six games. Above all, the defensive bulwark of fourth place left a strong impression. Most recently, Nashville SC has not conceded four times in a row.
Free fixed picks
That form curve is now to be continued with the upcoming opponent from Atlanta. The last time the two Eastern Conference competitors met, Nashville SC prevailed against the "Five Stripes" in the home stadium. Head coach Gary Smith's team has not yet been able to score at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Will the defensive bulwark hold up against Atlanta?
The defensive bulwark of Nashville SC will be challenged against the strong offensive of the Saturday opponent. In the attack department, Smith has to cope with a few failures, at least in the back line the trainer from Nashville SC is spared personnel worries. Changes compared to the last starting XI are not expected.
Free fixed predictions
One of the most valuable players in the Nashville SC squad is Hany Mukhtar, German U21 international. A year ago Mukhtar moved from Brondby IF to Nashville SC, since then there have been five goals and three assists for the offensive player in 20 appearances in the MLS. Most recently, Mukhtar only came into play as a joker. It is quite possible that there will be a place in the starting line-up against Atlanta United.
