There are two games to wrap up the MLS week on Sunday. The first game to kick off is the NY Red Bulls vs. Atlanta United as the Bulls make the trip on the road.
Money Line
Atlanta United are pretty sizable favorites on Sunday but they are still the play in this game, and this is a very confident play. Some might be off Atlanta after what happened midweek against the Chicago Fire but there is one key about that game, they were without Josef Martinez. The talk leading into this game is that Martinez will be good to go, and that is a good thing for the home squad. On the season Martinez has scored ten goals, and the next leading scorer for Atlanta only has four. Atlanta United has also been really good at home coming into this game having won six of the nine games. This is a very confident pick with Atlanta United, and I wouldn’t be afraid to bet it big.
Over Under Pick
The total in this game is set at 2.75 and I really don’t love this total. For the most part, Atlanta United’s defense has been strong this year but them giving up five goals in their last game against Chicago does scare me. I still think their defense should get back to their old form and that makes it lean to the under. If you want to bet this game I would bet it light but take the under.
