D.C. United and Atlanta United meet once again. While Orlando City may be the perceived rival for the Five Stripes, it could be argued that their match-ups with D.C. have better resembled what a rivalry entails. It seems like fireworks always pop off when these two meet and this match appears to offer the most promising prospects so far.
Wayne Rooney is here and he’s helped transform D.C. from a lowly performer to a strong contender for the last playoff spot in the East. Our old pal Yamil Asad is questionable after sustaining an injury last weekend.
