Atlanta United vs Philadelphia Union

Current streaks

Recent form

Atlanta United

Atlanta United are currently experiencing a challenging run of form, finding themselves in 14th position in the league table with just 10 points from 12 games. The Five Stripes have failed to secure a victory in their last six matches, enduring a particularly difficult stretch with four consecutive losses before salvaging two draws in their most recent outings. Their offensive woes are evident, having scored only three goals in the past six games, averaging a mere 0.5 goals per match. Defensively, they've been equally troubled, conceding 11 goals without keeping a single clean sheet during this period. Notably, Atlanta United have suffered two heavy 3-0 defeats against Orlando City and Philadelphia Union, highlighting their defensive vulnerabilities. The team's inability to find the back of the net is further emphasised by their seven-game winless streak and a 10-game run without a clean sheet, indicating significant room for improvement in both attack and defence.

Philadelphia Union

Philadelphia Union are in fine form, having gone unbeaten in their last six matches with four wins and two draws. The team have been particularly impressive in their attacking play, scoring an average of 2.33 goals per game and netting 14 times in total during this run. Their defensive record is also solid, conceding just one goal per game on average. The Union have been involved in some high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals. Their last three home games in Major League Soccer have been particularly noteworthy, with the team scoring three goals in each fixture. The Union's current third-place position in the league table, coupled with their 23 points from 12 games, suggests they are serious contenders this season. Their ability to keep clean sheets (two in the last six matches) while consistently finding the back of the net makes them a formidable opponent for any team in the league.

Recent home/away form

Atlanta United

Atlanta United have struggled to find consistent form at home, with their last six matches yielding only one victory, three draws, and two losses. The team's goalscoring has been modest, averaging just 1.17 goals per game, whilst conceding slightly more at 1.33 goals per match. Defensively, they have managed only one clean sheet in this period. Their most exciting encounter was a high-scoring 4-3 victory over New York City FC, which stands out as an anomaly in an otherwise low-scoring run, with 67% of their matches seeing fewer than 2.5 goals. Despite the lack of goals, both teams have found the net in two-thirds of Atlanta's home fixtures, suggesting their matches remain competitive despite their current 14th position in the league table.

Philadelphia Union

Philadelphia Union have shown impressive away form recently, winning four of their last six matches on the road. The team have demonstrated resilience, bouncing back from two consecutive losses to secure a win in their most recent away fixture. Notably, the Union have been prolific in front of goal, scoring 10 times in these six matches, with a particularly high-scoring game against Orlando City ending in a 4-2 victory. Their defensive record has also been solid, conceding only six goals and keeping two clean sheets. The Union's away performances have been evenly split between high-scoring affairs and tighter contests, with 50% of matches seeing over 2.5 goals. This strong away form has contributed significantly to their current 3rd position in the league, accumulating 23 points from 12 games.
