Player to watch: Daniel Rios

Atlanta United’s fans were troubled by the fact that the team’s men in charge opted to part ways with Georgios Giakoumakis. However, Rios is making the fans forget all about the Greek goalscorer!

He found the net twice in the match against DC United a couple of days ago. Despite the fact that Atlanta lost, Rios was a force to be reckoned with and we believe his presence will help our Atlanta United vs Santos Laguna prediction.

Second player to watch: Brad Guzan

Guzan is proving to us that age is just a number. The soon-to-be-40 shot-stopper is a firm starter for his manager and we are convinced he will play in the match against Santos Laguna as well.
