Recent Form
Atlanta United extended it's seven-match unbeaten streak on Wednesday after scoring the game-tying goal in the 95th minute. Midfielder Nick Firmino, who was called up from Atlanta United 2 on a short-term agreement, headed the ball into the bottom corner of the net just eight minutes after stepping on the field. New York Red Bulls are also coming off a 2-2 draw after scoring two second half goals against Charlotte. They had previously lost their last 47 MLS matches when trailing by multiple goals. New York is 3-2-2 (W-L-D) in its last seven matches.
Series History and Last Meeting
The Red Bulls own the series history between both teams with a record of 9-2-4, and they were unbeaten in 12 regular season matches against Atlanta until earlier this season. On April 1, New York's keeper blocked Thiago Almada's shot and the rebound fell in the 6-yard-box right in front of Giorgos Giakoumakis, who buried it in the seventh minute of the match. The lone goal gave the 5-Stripes their first regular season win over New York.
Players To Watch
Tyler Wolff (Atlanta United) – The Homegrown has had an incredible last few matches, scoring four goals in his seven appearances this season. Wolff scored the first goal on Wednesday in the 11th minute; it was the club's 350th regular season goal and it put Wolff as the third-leading scorer on the team. Without Derrick Etienne Jr., Wolff could be back in the starting lineup again to help Atlanta earn their second win on the road this season.
Cameron Harper (New York Red Bulls) – At just 21 years old, Cameron Harper has become an integral part of the Red Bulls attack this season and has started in 14 matches. The winger scored the game-tying goal in a congested box on Wednesday against Charlotte for his first goal of the season and the third in his MLS career. The goal earned Harper a spot on the MLS Team of the Matchday for Matchday 20.
Head Coach Gonzalo Pineda on double matchweek:
"It's difficult in the sense that players are coming in and players are leaving. It's not easy in that sense, but I think one of the best parts of last week's training session is that the principles that we work on apply for both teams. Certain things that we did against New York City are going to apply to New York Red Bulls. The team is prepared. You don't have too much time to complain, it's just another chance to bring the energy in. The team is ready to fight, ready to play good and we're going to be fine."
