Match Preview: Bethlehem Steel FC and Atlanta United 2 set for midweek showdown

CHESTER, Pa. (October 9, 2019) – Bethlehem Steel FC (8-17-6, 16th place in East) fought hard in their last match, a 2-1 loss to Charlotte Independence in the club’s 2019 home finale, but couldn’t bury enough chances to take a result. The Boys in Blue now travel to take on Atlanta United 2 (8-16-8, 13th place in East) at Fifth Third Bank Stadium this Wednesday, October 9, at 7:30 p.m. ET. Both teams have already been eliminated from 2019 USL Championship Playoffs contention, but the Steel and Atlanta can still affect where other teams fall in the final standings and create chaos for other teams’ playoff chances with strong performances.
