Atlanta United: Trophies or bust

As the 2018 dream season lies in the rear-view mirror for Atlanta United, newly appointed manager Frank de Boer looks ahead to the 2019 schedule with a rowdy and proud fan base right beside him. And while the supporters will be there no matter what, the Five Stripe faithful know the feeling of silverware, and they want more.

The competitive season for Atlanta United begins Thursday night when they face off against Costa Rican champions C.S. Herediano in leg one of the first round of the CONCACAF Champions League.

Atlanta head into the tie as heavy favorites and have some of the best odds to take home the title for the first time in club and MLS history.
