The MLS excitement continues in week 16 when we have exciting matchdays. Some teams will play their 15th, 16th, or 17th games; however, this only means that the season is reaching the halfway point and that, from now on, each team will have to find a way to score three points more consistently.

On the contrary, they lost in the round of 16 of the U.S. Open Cup to LA Galaxy (0-2) and in the final of the CONCACAF Champions League to Club León (1-3 on aggregate).
Why Bet on Atlanta United?
Atlanta United, for their part, come into this matchday with the firm conviction of returning to the winning ways they lost three weeks ago.

United come into this matchday having drawn their last three MLS games, two of them 3-3 and one 1-1. However, the team owes a huge debt defensively, as while they are the highest-scoring team in the tournament, they have conceded the most goals with 28.
Atlanta comes into this match on the back of a 3-3 draw against New England.
