Atlanta United is set to host Columbus crew in the 14th week of the MLS. This match is scheduled for 24th July 23, 2021 19:30 at the Mercedes Benz Stadium in the USA.
Columbus Crew are currently on a four winning streak against Atlanta in the MLS, they have scored eight goals and conceded twice in the same period. And on the other hand Rob Valentino’s side will continue to struggle for better results after they played out 1-1 draw with Cincinnati.
Atlanta is currently at the 10th position with two wins and eight draws in 14games in the Eastern Conference. However, the visiting crew is also struggling with travels they have managed only one win in 16 last away games and eight loses.
Atlanta has won just twice this season, and they also have scored a total of just 14 goals from their 14 league games so far. Moreover, they also have a poor head to head record against this opponent over the years.
Columbus are the reigning champions of the competition, and they are on a long unbeaten run at the moment. Meanwhile, Atlanta are going through a winless streak. And for these reasons we expect more for the Crew to snatch victory if Atlanta is not strong enough to handle them.
