Atlanta United vs. DC United Betting Odds and Prediction

Last Updated on June 7, 2023 3:08 pm by Erwin Noguera

The MLS has rapidly reached its middle point amid a convoluted season with many important international competitions being played. Whatever the case, the conferences tables are red hot, and, even if FC Cinncinati seems to be comfortably running at the top of the East and the Supporters’ Shield, the rest of the teams in that conference and in the West are pretty close.

In this case, we will be analyzing the match between two teams that have been a little underwhelming but can take this chance to escalate some positions in the table. On one side, Atlanta United wants to retake its early season form. Meanwhile, DC United needs to keep its steady pace toward its first post-season participation in many years.

When:

Saturday, June 10th at 7:30 pm ET in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium

Betting Odds:

Atlanta United -131

DC United +320

Draw:

+310

Where can I watch it?

MLS Season Pass

Why bet on Atlanta United?

The team from Atlanta will have a hard test this night before their weekend clash. However, we don’t think the result may affect their performance in this match. MLS teams have a wonderful capacity to act as if nothing happened after a bad result, and, even if snowballing does exist, we can just take FC Cincinnati as an example, as their only league loss this season was a real steamroll, but they just don’t care.

Without taking into account this night’s clash, the Red & Black come with 6 wins, 6 draws, and 4 losses. The main problem is that those victories were achieved, mostly, in the early season, and they have just two wins in their last ten league games.

The main problem is their defense, as their only win in the last seven games was when they kept a clean sheet. In all the other matches they have been fairly fragile, and this cannot keep up if they want to rise.

Why bet on DC United?

The team from the capital is enjoying a minor resurgence, as since 2019 they have been incapable of reaching the post-season, and were even last place in their conference a couple of times. Now they are in seventh place, just one point behind Atlanta, so a win could be massive.

They come with 6 wins, 5 draws, and 6 losses, and are amid a resurgence, as they started poorly with four defeats in their first seven clashes. Then came a successful string of three victories that catapult them out of the bottom of the table, and they have kept their position ever since then. They divide their victories between home and away clashes so, contrary to most midtable teams in the MLS, they are a fairly indigestible guest.

They come from a couple of wins, a draw, and a loss in their last four games. Their last match was, precisely, an away win over Inter Miami, so Atlanta cannot be overconfident at its home.

Final Betting Analysis: Atlanta United vs. DC United

Two sides with direct tickets for the Final Series, at the moment, clash trying to establish themselves better. On one side, we have a team on a downward curve, that started the season at a great pace but is losing ground. On the other, we have a team that enjoyed a massive resurgence but it’s slowing down a little again.

Atlanta United is fairly solid at home, while DC United has shown that it’s capable of winning outside its home ground. Also, although the team from the capital is a lot less effective up front, they are much better defensively than the hosts.

In this context, we believe a draw is the most plausible scenario. Go for a 2-2.

Go for a draw at +310. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $310 for a total payout of $410.
