With a two week break for international play behind them, the Five Stripes journey back across the border tonight in a visit to Toronto FC. Sitting just one point shy of the seven Eastern Conference playoff positions, Atlanta United seeks to cast out the away game demons that have plagued Gonzalo Pineda’s squad of late.
They’ll get their chance here against next to last place Toronto, who deceivingly are unbeaten in their last four MLS matches. The two sides’ last meeting at Mercedes-Benz Stadium ended 1-0 in Atlanta’s favor, but the team will be hunting for a reassuring result after falling 2-1 to CF Montreal in their last venture.
