Atlanta United vs New York Red Bulls Prediction and Betting Tips | 1st April 2023

Atlanta United host New York Red Bulls at Arthur Blank Stadium in the MLS on Saturday, looking to recover from last weekend's humiliation.

The Five Stripes were beaten 6-1 by Columbus on Sunday for their first loss of the season as the club's unbeaten start to the 2023 season ended in dramatic fashion.

A double from Christian Ramirez and goals from Aidan Morris, Philip Quinton and Jacen Russell-Rowe put the Crew 5-0 up by the 68th minute but Brooks Lennon pulled one back for the visitors soon after. However, Maximilian Arfsten restored Atlanta's five-goal advantage in stoppage time.

Yet, with 10 points in five games, Gonzalo Pineda's side are in third place in the Eastern Conference standings and now take on a struggling team in the bottom half of the table.

It hasn't been a good start to the new campaign for the Red Bulls, who've won just once so far - a 2-1 comeback win over Columbus on matchday four.

They were cruising towards another win last Sunday with Elias Manoel's first-half opener having them in front until the 74th minute when Andres Reyes' own goal forced them to settle for a point instead.
