Welcome back to another exciting weekend of Major League Soccer where the two teams dead last in their respective conferences meet at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Atlanta United, sitting on five total points through six matches played, host the some-how-even-worse Colorado Rapids, who have just two — one, two — points through eight matches. What a matchup.
The Five Stripes are coming off of another disappointing result against FC Dallas last weekend. There were some encouraging signs, such as the attack creating dangerous chances. The last two performances have been better overall. Hopefully that continues and the positive tangible results follow.
