Both teams suffered losses in the previous round, but Atlanta is under pressure as they have already suffered three consecutive defeats.

Betting on Atlanta United
Since late April, the situation has become a bit complicated for Atlanta United, as they haven’t been able to win in the three games they played. They have five wins, three draws, and four losses in 12 matches and with that balance, they are part of the top five teams in the Eastern Conference.
Despite losing their last home game 1-3 against Charlotte, that is their only defeat at home in six matches, completing their record with four wins and one draw. They are the fourth-best home team in their zone and have one of the two best offenses with 12 goals, having scored in each of their six home games.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Quentin Westberg; Brooks Lennon, Miles Robinson, Juan Sanchez Purata, Derrick Etienne Junior; Amar Sejdic, Franco Ibarra; Luiz Araujo, Thiago Almada, Caleb Wiley; Miguel Berry
Betting on the Colorado Rapids
The Colorado Rapids suffered their fourth defeat of the season, losing 1-2 to the Philadelphia Union. This loss ended their positive streak of nine games without a loss in all competitions and complicates their position in the Western Conference standings. Their record is now two wins, six draws, and four losses.
The Colorado franchise is one of three teams with the second-lowest number of wins in their conference, but it’s worth noting that both victories were obtained while playing away from home. Oddly enough, their best record is when they’re on the road with two wins, three draws, and two losses.
Possible Lineup (3-4-1-2): William Yarbrough; Lalas Abubakar, Andreas Maxso, Danny Wilson; Sam Nicholson, Connor Ronan, Danny Leyva, Anthony Markanich; Diego Rubio; Kevin Cabral, Jonathan Lewis
JefeBet Prediction
Both teams are coming in wounded after losing in the last matchday, and both will be looking to turn their situation around. Even though Atlanta is going through a rough patch, just losing one home game gives them the favorite tag in this match. The Five Stripes have never lost at home against Colorado and will look to continue that dominance.
At JefeBet, we believe that Atlanta will come out on top of this Atlanta United vs Colorado Rapids match, but both teams will score. If you think the victory will be for the visiting team, you can bet $100 on the Colorado Rapids line at DraftKings and win $330 if that result is achieved.
Prediction: Atlanta United Moneyline (ATL 2-1 COL)
