The Rave Green come into the fixture following a 3-2 win over the San Jose Earthquakes last Saturday, putting the club in fourth place in the Western Conference with 37 points (10-6-7). Atlanta sits in 13th place in the East with 20 points (4-11-8), most recently falling 3-2 to Charlotte FC at home.
