Why this match matters
Cincinnati sit four points off conference-leading Philadelphia and begin a gruelling three-game week on the road. Picking up away points now could define their Supporters’ Shield chase. Atlanta, 13th in the East, urgently need a result to keep playoff hopes alive before another mid-week fixture.
Team news and projected line-ups
Atlanta United: Manager Gonzalo Pineda is without defender Brooks Lennon (hamstring), winger Xande Silva (hip) and midfielder Tristan Muyumba (suspension). Expect a 3-5-2 with Brad Guzan; Abram, Williams, Edwards; Amador, Slisz, Fortune, Miranchuk, Almirón; Latte Lath, Lobjanidze.
FC Cincinnati: Pat Noonan’s 5-3-2 should feature Roman Celentano; Mosquera, Miazga, Cameron, Robinson, Gaddis; Bucha, Evander, Valenzuela; Denkey, Acosta. No major injury concerns reported.
Players to watch
• Kevin Denkey — the Togolese striker has eight goals in 13 matches and punishes high defensive lines.
• Miguel Almirón — Atlanta’s marquee signing loves games against Cincy; he has three goals and three assists in five meetings.
• Evander vs. Jay Fortune — battle in midfield will decide tempo; Evander leads Cincinnati in both goals (7) and assists (3).

Head-to-head

Betting odds (ESPN BET, 24 May)
• Moneyline: ATL +145 | Draw +260 | CIN +145
• Over/Under 2.5 goals: Over -175, Under +130
Value play: Both teams to score has hit in four of the last five clashes; the trend points to another open encounter.
Tactical snapshot
Atlanta press high but concede space behind their wing-backs; Cincinnati’s counter-attacking 5-3-2 is built to exploit those channels. Look for Luciano Acosta to drift into half-spaces, dragging center-backs out and creating lanes for Denkey’s diagonal runs. Pineda may order midfielder Slisz to man-mark Acosta to prevent overloads.
Prediction
Atlanta’s home crowd often lifts the Five Stripes, yet their defensive frailties remain. Cincinnati’s depth plus Evander’s creativity tip the balance: FC Cincinnati 2, Atlanta United 1.
