Both Teams Aim to Break Winless Streaks
25 Jul
Summary
- New England seeks first win since May 16.
- Atlanta aims for second road victory this year.
- Both teams are coming off draws in their last matches.
Following the midseason break, both the New England Revolution and Atlanta United are eager to secure a much-needed three points when they meet.
New England, with a record of 8-5-2 and 26 points, is tied for third in the Eastern Conference. They are aiming for their first win since May 16, coming off a scoreless draw against Toronto FC. Head coach Carles Gil leads the team with five goals, while goalkeeper Matt Turner recently achieved his fourth clean sheet.
Atlanta, holding a 3-10-3 record with 12 points, seeks to improve upon their offensive struggles. The team has the fewest goals in Major League Soccer and has netted only five in eight road games. Despite a recent draw against Charlotte where they showed more offensive conviction, they are still searching for their second away win of the season.
The Revolution previously defeated Atlanta 2-1 on April 22, with Will Sands and Peyton Miller scoring for New England.
