New York City Look to Capitalise at Home
New York City FC sit two spots above Atlanta United FC in the table after both sides played 31 games. The hosts have gone three draws and two losses across their last five matches while Atlanta picked up just one win in the same period. New York City hold three victories to Atlanta’s single win in the last ten head-to-head meetings. At home this season New York City average 1.8 goals scored per game and concede 1.5. Atlanta United have allowed 1.7 goals per game overall and list two defensive absences with knee and ankle problems. New York City have recorded both teams scoring in 21 of their 31 league games so far. The main risk remains Atlanta’s ability to create chances on the counter in an open contest.
