New York City vs Atlanta United Previews & Picks
New York City have been enjoying a fairly strong start to their new campaign, with six matches culminating in just two defeats.
Atlanta United have managed to snare four wins in six games, with the visiting side hot on the heels of Cincinnati at the top of the Eastern Conference.
Head-To-Head
City have not lost to their opponents in their last six matches. In this time, there have been four wins for City and two draws, with United's last win coming back in August 2019.
New York City are looking to get back to winning ways after seeing their winless run extended to two matches following a 1-1 draw with New England Revolution last time out.
This draw followed a 1-0 loss to Houston Dynamo, with the struggles of City on the road clear for all to see. They have now failed to win any of their four matches away from home, losing twice and drawing twice.
However, they have excelled at home, winning both of their matches. A 1-0 win over Inter Miami was quickly followed by a thrilling 3-2 win against DC United, and they are now looking to extend their perfect record on their own turf this season.
Atlanta United have looked good so far, with the visiting side currently sitting in second in the league after six matches.
A win over the New York Red Bulls in their last match helped them to get over their horrendous 6-1 loss to Columbus Crew in their previous game as they look to get back to business as usual.
For those looking to back United, it is worth noting that they have been very inconsistent on the road. A brilliant 3-0 win over Charlotte was followed by that 6-1 loss to Columbus Crew. With a 1-0 win over the Red Bulls following their 6-1 loss, most will assume that United will look to ensure they are compact at the back so as to avoid a similar hammering in their latest away game.
