Player to watch: Cucho Hernandez
Hernandez was the 2nd-best finisher in Major League Soccer during the 2023 campaign. The Colombian goalscoring machine was only bested by Denis Bouanga of Los Angeles. However, with 12 goals since the start of the season, he is definitely eager to have another go at the prestigious individual award.

Second player to watch: Diego Rossi
If Rossi plays, our Atlanta United vs Columbus Crew predictions will surely succeed. He is the leading creator for the visitors, with seven assists since the start of the season.
