Atlanta United 17/20 to beat Colorado Rapids in Saturdays MLS matchup

Competition: MLS

Market: Atlanta United win

Odds: 17/20 @ Bet 365

After losing their spot at the top of the Eastern Conference, Atlanta will be looking to bounce back when they travel to Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in the early hours of Saturday night.

Starting with the hosts, although Colorado had shown some signs of improvements last month, The Rapids appear to have slipped back to their old ways. After 27 MLS matches this season, the hosts have won six, drawn six and lost 15, scoring 31 and conceding 50 in return, they now hold the worst attacking record in either the East or the Western Conferences. With a points tally of 20, they are already 17 points adrift of the playoffs and hold a four-point buffer from dropping onto bottom spot. Now losing their last three matches on the bounce and conceding 10 goals, The Rapids have also failed to find the net in return.

As for the visitors, while they may have struggled away at DC last week, Atalanta have been in impressive form and will be looking to reclaim their spot at the top of the Eastern Conference. After 27 MLS games, they have won 16, drawn six and lost five, scoring 56 and conceding 33 in return, they now have the best-attacking tally in the whole of the MLS. While they’re coming off the back of a loss, Atalanta are unbeaten in their other seven MLS matches and their goalscoring record should prove to be too much for Colorado.
