Atlanta United vs LAFC Preview & Picks


Atlanta United made it eight without a win in the MLS following their 1-1 draw with Nashville on the road. 

LAFC edged to a 2-0 win over St Louis City to make it two victories in as many matches. 

  • United have lost three of their last four 
  • LAFC have won their last two games 
  • LAFC have not seen both teams score in their last two outings 

Head-To-Head


United have won two of their four meetings with their opponents. Meanwhile, LAFC have won once and the other game ended as a draw. 

Atlanta United Form

 
Atlanta United had to come back from 1-0 down to take a point from Nashville in their 13th match of the season as they battled to a 1-1 draw. Despite gaining the momentum following their goal, United could not find the winner in the story of their season so far. 

This draw made it eight with a win including four defeats, with their 3-0 triumph over Chicago Fire back in March now feeling like a very long time ago. 

After a brilliant start in which they picked up nine points from a possible 15, they have since secured four points from a possible 24, with United slipping down the standings. 

LAFC Form 


LAFC eventually battled their way past a stubborn St Louis side as they secured a 2-0 win to make it two wins in as many matches. 

While St Louis have hardly been perfect this year, they had drawn seven of their 12 games prior to their clash with LAFC, meaning the latter's win over their tough to beat opponents was a very good one. 

While LAFC have not been at their best on the road this season, we are backing the travelling side to build on their recent win away from home by beating an Atlanta outfit in awful form. 

Verdict

We are backing LAFC to secure all three points as Atlanta fail to score for the second time in three outings.
