Preview
Toronto ensured a winning return in mid-week when they beat Montreal 4-0 at home in the Canadian Championship semi-final.
This after a loss to NY Red Bulls last week which left them in 12th place on the league table with 15 points from 15 matches.
The hosts have one of the best home records this season having won 4 of the 8 matches played. This gives them a massive push in order to get the right result.
On the other hand, Atlanta United beat Inter Miami 2-0 at home in their previous clash last week where Araujo and Martinez scored the crucial goals.
This victory got them to 9th place in the league table with 19 points from 14 matches. However, they need to kick on from here since it was their first win in 5 matches.
With 2 draws and 2 losses in their previous 5 matches, this win has got some confidence but will need to back it up once again.
Both teams last met in October 2021 where Atlanta United played out a stalemate against Toronto 1-1.

Prediction: Toronto 1-1 Atlanta United
Neither side has shown consistency in their play in recent weeks which can ensure a scratchy affair taking place.
Toronto’s mid-week win gives them massive confidence ahead of this one whereas the visitors also won their match.
It’s all down to who can draw first here and we expect an intense clash pan out with a draw being favourable result.
