Head-to-head statistics Atlanta United - New York Red Bulls

Atlanta are going through a rough patch right now: in 18 games the team has managed to win just three times. Last round saw a painful defeat to Philadelphia (2:3). What's more, the majority of away games have ended in failure. Atlanta haven't played at home since May. And most likely, within their own walls, Alexei Miranchuk and company will perform considerably better. Above all, the team desperately needs to sort out their play on their own half. After all, they are conceding almost 2 goals per game on average. Perhaps the hosts will try to move away from overly vertical football.

NY Red Bulls Team Overview
The away team played their last official match on as part of the MLS tournament (home team - NY Red Bulls, away - Orlando City). The match concluded with a scoreline of 3:2.
Here are the match stats (NY Red Bulls vs Orlando City):
- ball possession: 40% vs 60%;
- corner kicks: 5 vs 4;
- fouls: 10 vs 10;
- yellow cards: 3 vs 2;
- shots on target: 8 vs 7.
The New York players have looked relatively decent in their recent matches. 2 wins in 5 games is a perfectly workable run of the season. Last round they beat Orlando (3:2). But there is still no consistency. After all, before that came a home defeat to Charlotte (0:2). The visitors may find it very difficult to weave their usual attacking patterns. On average, around 1.5 goals are scored per match. That is a fairly decent metric. But away from home, the attack risks stalling. On top of that, something needs to be said about the team's defence, which looks simply awful (2+ conceded on average). That is something that needs to be addressed as well.

⭐ Editor's Pick
In the upcoming match, Atlanta are considered the favourites. However, New York will put up a fight regardless. It is not entirely clear how the teams will perform after a two-week break. Attacking organisation may drop off slightly in terms of sharpness. In the first half, the sides will likely be focused on adapting and rediscovering their playing connections. And of course, one should expect serious, methodical work from both coaching staffs on improving the defensive situation. Our editors believe the results of that work will already be visible in the upcoming match. The match could end 1:1. We are going with total under 3.5 goals.
