Atlanta United team news and form: Atlanta disappointing their fans once again

Player to watch: Brad Guzan

Guzan did all he could in last week’s MLS match versus LA Galaxy. Coach Greg Vanney hammered away eight shots on target and Guzan managed to make six crucial saves. Sure, the result on the scoreboard after 90 minutes of play was 2-0 in favor of the home team at Dignity Health Sports Park, but Guzan’s contribution was the reason Atlanta United didn’t get humiliated.

Second player to watch: Saba Lobzhanidze

Atlanta United’s winger is the top scorer for coach Valentino this season. He found the net on six occasions and is undoubtedly eager to score a seventh soon enough.
