Atlanta United returns to Mercedes-Benz Stadium this evening after a result-less road trip that saw two 2-1 defeats at the hands of Inter Miami and CF Montreal, increasing their winless run in league play to four games. Now, they’ll welcome the Chicago Fire with a chance to get back into the win column and potentially the top half of the Eastern Conference.
If there’s any opponent that can kick the Five Stripes back into gear, it’s the Fire, who aren’t too hot right now themselves with no wins and only one goal in their last five MLS matches.
