With New York City FC’s win over the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday night, the stage is set for the Eastern Conference semi-finals: Atlanta United will travel to the Bronx this Sunday to take on the Cityzens before a return leg in Atlanta the following week. NYCFC are winners of two straight while Atlanta are coming off one of their worst losses this season.
The all-time numbers in the team series paint an interesting picture. Through four games, Atlanta and NYCFC each have one win, one loss, and two draws. The all-time score is 7-7, with each win coming from the respective home team last season and both draws occurring this season.
