How might Atlanta United replace Josef Martinez versus the Seattle Sounders?

Josef Martinez caught MLS by storm early into the season, scoring five goals in three matches in truly dominant fashion. However, reports are that Martinez will likely miss the first match back from international break due to an injury he picked up while playing for the Venezuela national team. Even if the injury isn’t severe, the club would be wise to not risk him until he’s back to 100% so early in the season. So, how will Atlanta United cope with this short-term loss against the defending MLS Cup Champion Seattle Sounders?
