Atlanta United: 5 key players to watch against LAFC

Atlanta United returns home to face LAFC this Saturday. LA got off to hot start, winning their first two games. However, a certain Swedish international had something to say about that, and LA dropped their first match of the season last week against in town rivals LA Galaxy. Atlanta is battling its fair share of injuries, but will look to continue its momentum against an LAFC squad that is trying to bounce back from their first defeat.

Here are five players looking to contribute to this week’s match.

5. Josef Marinez

After scoring four goals in two games, Martinez was held in check last week against Minnesota.
