Atlanta United FC MLS Betting Odds

Major League Soccer is off to a great start in the ATL. Atlanta United have made the playoffs in all three seasons they have played in the MLS, and the 2018 MLS Cup winners are one of the favorites to win it all again in 2020. The Five Stripes are bound to have one of the most explosive offenses in the league once again with Josef Martinez up top and Ezequiel Barco is one of the MLS’ best young play makers. If Pity Martinez can deliver on his promise after a disappointing 2019, we could see Atlanta United back in the MLS Cup.

Atlanta United FC 2020 Preview

The big question heading into 2020 for Atlanta United is a totally revamped defense. Michael Parkhurst retired after a long career, and the team said goodbye to Florentin Pogba, Brek Shea, and Leonardo Gonzalez Pirez after the season. Not one of the defenders currently on the roster started a game for Atlanta United last season, and the team will try to make do with home grown players like George Bello, George Campbell, and Miles Robinson. Fernando Meza, Franco Escobar, Brooks Lennon, Edgar Castillo, and Anton Walkes were all brought in from other clubs this offseason, so this back line is a major wild card.

Atlanta United FC Past Results

Atlanta United didn’t come into the league with a whimper, they came in with a bang. Arthur Blank wasn’t afraid to open his wallet in their first season, and that led to the club finishing in third place in 2017. Josef Martinez and Miguel Almiron showed a lot of promise, and they fulfilled that during their 2018 campaign.

Martinez smashed the single season scoring record with 31 goals for Atlanta United in league play in 2018. His play was an enormous part of their success, and they almost won the Supporters Shield after ripping apart the league for most of the regular season. Atlanta United sputtered a bit down the stretch, but they had no problems once the playoffs rolled around.

The club trounced both of their Big Apple opponents in the Eastern Conference playoffs to set up an MLS Cup Final with the Portland Timbers. There, Martinez broke open the scoring in the 39th minute before Franco Escobar added an insurance goal in the 54th minute to give Atlanta United the title.

The Five Stripes experienced a lot of turmoil at the start of the 2019 campaign. Atlanta didn’t pick up a win the first month of the season as the team adjusted to Frank de Boer’s preferred playing style, and they were stuck in the middle of the pack in the Eastern Conference at the halfway point of the season. They were one of the hottest teams over the second half of the year though, rising to second place in the Eastern Conference ahead of the playoffs.

In the postseason, Atlanta United shut out both the New England Revolution and the Philadelphia Union to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals for a date with Toronto FC. The Five Stripes were favorites with the game in Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and they got off to a great start after Julian Gressel scored in the fourth minute of action. Unfortunately, that was the only goal that Atlanta United scored, and they fell to Toronto FC 2-1 after a late goal from Nick DeLeon.
