The New York Red Bulls have a "big test" coming up against Atlanta United FC.
"We're looking forward to next weekend," Head Coach Jesse Marsch said.
The Red Bulls will face off against the team at the top of Major League Soccer, with Atlanta holding 25 points through 11 games (2.27 points per game). New York enters the match with 18 points through nine matches (2 points per game).
"We have already had some big tests recently and it has not been an easy stretch, but our group has stayed strong," Marsch said. "Physically, they have handled themselves well and have set us up for success.
