Atlanta United will host Orlando City at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Monday in another round of the 2024 MLS campaign.
The home side kicked off their league campaign with a 1-0 defeat to Columbus Crew last month. They then picked up their first win of the campaign in their second match, beating New England Revolution 4-1, with Thiago Almada opening the scoring from the spot in the first half before Giorgos Giakoumakis scored a second-half hat-trick.
Atlanta United sit ninth in the Western Conference with three points from two matches and will be looking to pick up back-to-back victories on Monday.
Orlando City have struggled for results of late and are still searching for their first league win of the campaign. They were beaten 3-2 by Minnesota United in their last league outing before crashing out of the CONCACAF Champions Cup on Wednesday following a 4-2 aggregate defeat to Mexican outfit Tigres.
The visitors sit 13th in the Western Conference with just one point from an obtainable nine. They will now look to shake off their latest results and return to winning ways next week.
