Atlanta United vs Nashville SC Preview

Atlanta United Preview

It’s been a tough few weeks for Atlanta United. After what seemed like a turning point in March, the Five Stripes have now lost three in a row without scoring a single goal. The pressure is mounting on Ronny Deila’s side to get back on track, especially at home where the fans are still waiting for a strong showing. Emmanuel Latte Lath has been their biggest attacking threat this season and could be key to ending their goal drought. A win here would be a much-needed confidence boost and keep them in touching distance of the playoff spots.

Possible Starting Lineup: Guzan; Lennon, Cobb, Abram, Amador; Slisz, Klich; Almiron, Miranchuk, Lobzhanidze; Lath

Nashville SC Preview

Nashville SC are coming into this one off the back of a statement win — a 7-2 demolition of Chicago Fire that showcased their attacking firepower, especially from Sam Surridge, who bagged four goals. While that win highlighted their offensive potential, Nashville’s road form tells another story. They’ve lost three of four away games this season and continue to struggle outside Tennessee. Coach BJ Callaghan will be looking for more consistency on the road if his team is to stay in the top half of the Eastern Conference.

Possible Starting Lineup: Willis; Najar, Palacios, Maher, Lovitz; Yazbek, Tagseth; Shaffelburg, Mukhtar, Muyl; Surridge

Atlanta United vs Nashville SC Player Props

Sam Surridge Anytime Goalscorer @ +150 (FanDuel) – Coming off a four-goal performance, Surridge is in top form and looks dangerous every time he steps on the pitch.

Emmanuel Latte Lath First Goalscorer @ +500 (DraftKings) – Despite Atlanta’s recent struggles, Lath remains their most likely source of a breakthrough and is worth backing to strike early.

Atlanta United vs Nashville SC Final Prediction

Atlanta’s form is shaky, but they’re back at home with their backs against the wall. Nashville’s road struggles are well-documented, and that could level the playing field. Expect goals from both sides.

We’re backing a 2-1 with total goals over 2.5.
