This weekend, Atlanta United head north to Minneapolis to face their fellow 2017 expansion side, Minnesota United. Atlanta (2-1-0) are hoping to make it three consecutive victories while Minnesota (2-2-0) is looking to bounce back after a 0-3 loss to New York Red Bulls last week. The clubs split their two matchups last season, so it’s all on the line for this one, bragging rights and all. Make sure to tune in Saturday night on FOX Sports South at 8:00 p.m. EST.
