Recent home/away form

Atlanta United

Atlanta United's recent home form has been a mixed bag, with two wins, two draws, and two losses in their last six matches at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Despite their middling league position, the Five Stripes have shown an ability to score goals, netting 10 times in these six games, including two high-scoring affairs: a thrilling 4-3 victory over New York City FC and a recent 4-2 win against FC Cincinnati.
