Nashville vs Atlanta United Prediction and Betting Tips

Nashville and Atlanta United return to action in MLS when they go head-to-head on Saturday. Ronny Deila’s men have failed to win their last six visits to Geodis Park since September 2020 and will be looking to end this five-year run.

Nashville turned in a five-star team display last Sunday as they cruised to a 5-1 victory over 10-man Orlando City when the two teams squared off at Geodis Park.

This was a much-needed result for B.J. Callaghan’s side, who had lost each of their previous three league matches while conceding six goals and scoring two across the three games.

Nashville have picked up 50 points from their 28 MLS matches so far to sit third in the Eastern Conference table, four points off first-placed Philadelphia Union.

In contrast, Atlanta United continue to struggle for results at the wrong end of the table as they were held to a goalless draw by Toronto FC on home turf last Sunday.

Deila’s side have failed to win their last 11 MLS matches, losing five and claiming six draws since claiming successive victories over Cincinnati and Orlando City in May.

Atlanta United have picked up 23 points from their 27 league matches so far to sit 14th in the Eastern Conference table, just two points above rock-bottom DC United.
