Atlanta United FC News Release


ATLANTA - Atlanta United faces 2022 MLS expansion side Charlotte FC for the first time on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The match, presented by AT&T, is set to kick-off at 4:30 p.m. EST and will be nationally broadcast on FS1 and FOX Deportes.

This is the first of two meetings against Charlotte in 2022, with the second coming at Bank of America Stadium on April 9 in another nationally televised match on ESPN. Atlanta holds a 5-3-3 all-time record against expansion teams, including a 2-1-2 record at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and a combined record of 14-7-7 against teams that have joined MLS since 2017.

Atlanta returns home for two consecutive matches against Charlotte and then Montreal on March 19 where the club is tied for the third-most home wins in MLS since 2017 with 53 (regular season and playoffs).

Both teams will be looking to bounce back after losses last weekend, as Atlanta fell 3-0 at Colorado Rapids on March 5 while Charlotte dropped its inaugural home match 1-0 to Los Angeles Galaxy.

Heading into Week 3 action, Atlanta ranks third in MLS in big chances created with seven, trailing New York Red Bulls (11) and Austin (eight).
